After getting Kriss Humphries and Gerald Wallace from the Nets, the Celtics turn around and deal them to Charlotte for Ben Gordon and Tyrus Thomas.

The Celtics do it because they have enough power forwards and exchange Wallace's bad contract for a significantly worse player on a bad deal that is a year shorter.  Charlotte does it to get rid of Thomas and get some help at their miserable power forward position.

I'd also ask for Jeff Taylor and the right to swap picks with the worst first-round pick owned by Charlotte.  They don't have their own, but they have protected picks from Detroit (top 8) and Portland (top 12).  It may end up not happening, but it can't hurt to ask.

Wait a minute...did Crash just go back to Charlotte?

Gordon should be a nice mentor/seat filler. Hopefully we move Reggie Evans too because he's worth more somewhere else.

Wait, is this thread just an IDEA? If so, I wish the OP would say so.

And if so, this is the second time TODAY that a person will have misrepresented an idea as a fact. It may be inadvertent, but it's annoying.

The rudeness of some of the posters on this page is awful, wish people would respect each others post and not criticize each other every chance they get.

Speaking for myself, I wasn't trying to be rude, just trying to point out a problem.

Ben Gordon and Tyrus Thomas, two players I'd be happy never seeing again, let alone on my favorite team.
