Free Agents...Not really.

Alot of major moves are gonna go down today. Old faces in new places and the rich keeps getting richer. The champion Lakers get the NBA's biggest pest in Ron Artest and the Eastern Conference champs get Vince Carter. With that said The Boston Celtics welcomes back the NBA's most versatile player Kevn Garnett from a season ending injury with a new ally...Rasheed Wallace! The Three Amigos are now the Four Horsemen and Rondo. What about last year's MVP? He only gets Shaq...who's that? Anyone remember a guy named Tim Duncan? Yeah that one. He just got one of the most underrated players in the league in Richard Jefferson.

Sneaky deals flying under the radar that I like are Jamal Crawford to the Hawks. He's so underated it's a crime. He only drops 50 on All-Stars more often then most All-Stars. Gortat and Marion to Mavericks is not shabby either. Giving Jason Kidd more targets was a great move by Mark Cuban no matter what the cost.

My take on Trevor Ariza deserves it's own section. I think he made the right move to move out of the shadows of Kobe Bryant. I think trevor can be a star in this league. He wasn't just another piece on that Lakers Championship team. I think that it's a credit to him to strive to be better. The system the Lakers run is flawless but his individual ability will never be creditted under it.

That's just a taste of my thoughts today. More to come
