Trades
Posted by: Bradley McDonald
There were all kinds of deals made in the NBA before the trading deadline Thursday night. Baron Davis and Chris Webber were the two biggest names to switch teams, but it seems like half the league was involved in one trade or another. Some of the trades don't make sense if you just look at the players involved (Baron Davis for 173 year old Dale Davis and Speedy Claxton?!), but you have to consider salary cap issues, also.
The NFL also had a pretty big trade of it's own with Randy Moss going to the Oakland Raiders for linebacker Napolean Harris and a couple of draft picks. As much of a headache as Moss is, he's still a difference-maker in the game, so this is a huge pickup for the Raiders.
I checked with my boss this morning to see if I had been traded, but I'm still here. Apparently, my salary doesn't affect our salary cap too much.
