You know it was a shaky offseason when the Knicks letting worldwide phenomenon Jeremy Lin leave for nothing is the only the 3rd-worst move of the summer.
The Sixers, Celtics, Clippers, and Wizards all made curious decisions over the past few months.
Some overpaid for players, while others shipped off effective pieces for no discernible reason.
10. Washington Wizards trade for $43 million worth of Emeka Okafor and Trevor Ariza
Okafor and Ariza are due $43 million over the next two years. Even though they are better than the guys the Wizards used to have, they are still both overpaid.
Washington is basically spending $43 million to be a fringe playoff contender rather than bottoming out and building through the draft.
9. Philadelphia 76ers sign Spencer Hawes for $13 million
$13 million over two years is fine for a starting center. But he's not a starting center, because Philly just got Andrew Bynum.
The Sixers need reliable guards off the bench and help on the wings, having Hawes, Kwame Brown, and Bynum as traditional centers is super redundant.
8. Utah Jazz trade Devin Harris for Marvin Williams
Neither of these guys is all that bad or all that good.
But Harris makes $8.5 million over one year and Williams makes ~$15 million over two.
How Atlanta pulled this off is a mystery.
