Why is everyone wrirting this off as a horrible move when they just cleared 8 million in cap space by getting rid of a player (camby) that probably will be on the injured list by opening night. No way cambyman has 2 healthy yrs in a row. Anyone agree? The nba is not baseball and no team can buy a chip. U need smart planning and financial moves from ur gm (a lil luck don’t hurt too) to succeed in this league. Camby wasn’t getting them anywhere

It’s amazing, two post, 37 comments, on a basketball site, and yet nobody mentioned that Nuggets get a 10 million dollar trade exception!!!

Plus, Nene and Kenyon >> Camby on the defensive side. Not let that stats fool you. Camby as DPOY was the worst award EVER. Everyone who voted for him should QUIT or GET SUSPENDED from journalism and find another job.

The Clippers only gave up a second-rounder, but didn’t they also give up the cap-space they had available to lure someday they really needed? They better trade him, or Kaman Islands.

And isn’t Camby getting kind of old? I think it’s understandable that the Nugs want to get rid of his contract while his stock is high. Use the 20 million over the next two years to sign some young toughs.

Given the Clips have just upgraded from ZBo to CambyMan in a day, its hard to say that this was not a great move for them… True, Camby and Kaman are redundant, but decent centers are a valuable (overrated ?) asset in this league… (and Walsh seriously blew that one…)

I did not check the money, but a Camby/Marion trade would make lots of sense for both teams.
As for Denver… No, they don’t have enough cap to go after JSmoove. I just don’t see it. Maybe the owner is just very cheap…

Yea this sounds like a trade to make a trade orrrrr they can keep what they got and add too. i like the move by LA man all they gave up was a 2nd round pick. call it robbery. sure dude dont give you brands points if they keep camby but he gives you enough especially if la can bring in another decent scorer.

now Denver …it really dont matter cause long as George Karl at the helm they will underachieve. Lol dude suck so bad. Glad Camby escaped. i bet A.I. and Melo are like i cant stand being on this team lol

side note the houston and detroit rumors are popping hard again. cant blame tracy. its houstons gm fault you had much time to give tracy the right support and failed. i really hope he dont leave but if he do i totally understand.

ai should just opt out of his contract or ask for a trade and do it like mike finley, bob horry, damon stoudamire, deaven george, grant hill, sam casel and so on– sign with a championship squad, and play about ten-twenty minutes pg, then get your ring at season’s end.
