I figured we'd be letting him go at some point. Hopefully we land Mudai and lakers fall 6th with pick and we get lucky and land Johnson.

Hell of a job by the Heat in getting Dragic, imo (though I haven't yet seen what they gave up). I imagine they'll have a decent chance of resigning him.
I don't understand giving up Knight, though. Maybe Kidd wanted to be reminded of himself by getting a poor shooting point guard.

Shawne Williams, Norris Cole, Justin Hamilton, Danny Granger, and 2 First round picks is what I saw, but can't confirm.

Knight is a FA after this season and probably looking to get paid, MCW is only in the 2nd year of his 4 year rookie deal at ~3mil/year. MCW fits the Bucks height/length mold too.

Two is a bit much. All those guys and a first round would have been great. Riley must think the current nucleus can seriously compete.

Dragic had his career last year (All NBA 3rd team) but he was getting squeezed out by Bledsoe and Thomas even though it seems like Dragic was the best of the three. Was just an odd situation.
He has been playing more off the ball but that's not his strength. I think Thomas was a good financial deal but didn't make sense within the context of the team at the time, imo.

Yeah the contract has to be the biggest reason for the deal. MCW just isn't very good. I don't care how long he is.

He's not as bad as you're makikng him out to be. Had he not been hurt in the offseason and been able to work on his shot,I'm not so sure he would be traded today.
From a sixers standpoint he's a 24 year old PG that is still a work in progress. They appear to rather roll the dice in draft.

If he learns to shoot he can be an OK player but right now he's a guy that chucks up 15 shots a game and shoots 40%. He reminds me of Livingston except he came into the league at 23 instead of 18 and doesn't have the same playmaking ability. Livingston has never been a plus offensive player, but he learned to contribute by playing defense and not taking shots (since he couldn't make them).
Right now, MCW is a player shouldn't even be on the court (if you're trying to win). So yes, he is awful. And no, I'm not exaggerating. The only above average skill he has right now is rebounding.

High assist totals. High turnovers. Mostly just a function of him having the ball in his hands.

He's the classic example of someone who is a playmaker but not a floor general. You take the good with the bad with him.

Chris Bosh could miss the rest of the season due to blood clots found in his lungs.
Could not have happened to a nicer guy. I hope he gets healthy and comes back strong next year.

Games where he is amazing. Let's rememeber the team we have in philly lol. He's a young player that has been improving. I think he has a high ceiling with the right coaching. Kidd is a good person for him to be around.
