The final trade would then be Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, and Jason Terry for Kris Humphries, Gerald Wallace (and his obscene contract), Reggie Evans, Keith Bogans, some guy I can't remember his name, but sounds like 'turnpike,' and 3 first rounders. A rather no brainer for the Nets. If they tried to trade Wallace's contract to any team in the league they'd probably have to give up 2 or 3 first rounders for a team to take him. Here they get Pierce and KG as well. A Deron Williams, Joe Johnson, Pierce, KG, Brook Lopez line-up would be avery strong.
Hoping there's something more to this trade that Danny is getting that hasn't been reported. Reminds me a bit of when we traded 'Tione for Raef's massive contract and late picks, but then we had to trade a #7 pick a few years later to rid ourselves of Raef.
