That is working out really well for LA. Manny is on a tear.

Yea, that Manny trade is working out pretty good.... but lets see if they make it to the playoffs. Probably should with that weak division.

Course that story came out about Manny begging Theo NOT to trade him and that he would play hard for the final two months of the season if he had his options torn up.

An hour after he had been traded...

Shaq to Lakers.
Shaq to Heat.
Shaq to Suns.

Shaq to Suns.

The other two are legit because they produced championships.

But this one is alittle dicey. I think that team actually got worse rather than better with Shaq. They went from a up tempo, transition 3's team into a team thats slower and Shaq lags the whole thing up. They are bigger for sure but I dont see the Suns being better next year with that trade barring epic collapses in LA, San Antonio and New Orleans IMO.

Each is own though.

You bring a thread dead for almost 4 months, to say something someone else has already said.

mike you missed the main reason why parish to the celtics was one of the greatest trades ever, because it was the same trade that brough mchale to boston as well.
