We are supposed to gut our bench (getting rid of everyone sans Shaq/Perk and West), give up 3 picks, AND give $5 million for that?
I see in no way how this helps us this season or next - or ever. I'm not giving up championships for medicocre (at best) potential.
Complex trades like this don't happen too often, and when they do, it's usually for at least one perennial all-star/superstar, which this deal certainly doesn't include.
