I say no deal unless it's Okafor instead of Posey.

Geeeeeeez. Not an ideal trade at all.

I guess it makes us better...but id rather use collison as a piece to try to get melo.....

Umm, I think I like Ariz? I know I like collison and I hate posey. I think its for the best, unless we just killed our chance at Melo.

I don't like this deal. Not enough value in return for Collison IMO. A #1 pick in the 2011 draft also needs to be thrown in there as well.

They definitely don't come out 100% on top, but its a reasonably fair trade (at this point) IMO. Who's going to play backup point now though? I feel like we're going to be in the same position we were in 07 (or 08) whenever Paul comes out of the game.


I had this same thought. Throwing in someone like TJ Ford from the Pacers that we could use as a backup PG would have made this deal much sweeter, IMO

See, this is what I mean by making moves. I applaud the organization. Lets face it, Collison would have taken another 2 or 3 years to mature. We need scorers on this team BAD, and this is a good one.

Well, I think this will give us a somewhat better starting five. I hate to lose Collison but who knows how he'll turn out. He was our trading chip to unload Posey.

Not a great, blockbuster trade, but it makes us better. I think they'll find a backup at point. And they're probably not through dealing.

Not gonna read the whole thread, but I live in Lakers country and their homers always really liked Ariza and were cooking up hypothetical trades to get him back multiple times last season. The radio hosts out here must have brought up him every time the Lakers struggled...
