Celtics trade:
Thomas Edwards III
Two 1 mil FA vets
Grizzlies trade:
Sam Hyde
Agreed.
Finally have a true low post center. Edwards was nice but he's been a dissapointment throughout his career until now. This was the opportunity to upgrade from him.

YEEE. One of those trades where you know you lose value wise but you do anyway.
I'm going to go aar style with Edwards and call him untouchable, the new Ryan Jackson!
I don't like Hyde at all, told Aaron that before i dealt for him. He scores and rebounds but not one of those guys who I like unless you run inside.
Edwards randomly became sick. When do you find A+ A players making 4.9 mil? You don't.

My favorite teams are outside teams who's FC can stop opposing teams FC's or inside teams, which gives us good matchups against any team.
We have 3 A+/A shooters in Max, Henry, Wright and we have two "A" rebounders in Metcalf/Edwards. Preferably I'd have a better defender than Metcalf but he's a sick player, so who cares.

Like this for skillz.
Metcalf and Hyde are kinda similar. Now they got a defensive beast to hog the post.

I'll always remember Skillz bashing edwards in the past, lol. Such as the time edwards was on his CY,
"CC, why is signing Edwards a priority?
You do notice he sucks, right? "
LOL
Just had to bring that up.

interesting trade... skillz knows what he wants and hyde is overrated so I like the trade for him
I'm not sure how high Edwards value is since he has been 'available for an upgrade' for about 6 seasons... I guess no one thought he was worth that till now? I like what CC gets for that reason

I don't really think much of Hyde tbh, and Edwards is pretty sick now. I like it more for Grizz.

He's good now though. eh, took him 7 seasons to figure himself out. but hey, couldn't pass up this opportunity for a center upgrade i've wanted for awhile. |

Hyde's an awesome big. WTF do people not think much of him for? He doesn't block shots, but he's gonna do 20/12. That's huge. He is a really nightmarish matchup because he just never has bad games.
Edwards is awesome, too. It's a fair trade. Skillz has awesome rebounding and a lot of great pieces but I wonder if his team will work. Maximov has never played PG, and Wright/Henry is a very weak perimeter duo defensively. I wouldn't be surprised if they dominated though. Amazing outside shooting and rebounding.

I like Hyde, I dont know why people are bashing him. Edwards is a nice player as well, works out well for both.
