Yup...I'm Still Pretty Happy About That Trade

I don't naturally tend toward optimism, but the following, from Yglesias, made me smile, and not only because it's pretty funny:

Jason Kidd basically isn’t shooting at all. Against Angola he scored zero points on zero shots and took no free throws. Under a certain (wrong) conception of a “pure point guard,” Kidd is now approaching a Platonic ideal of brilliant play. But realistically, playing offense against a tough defense is hard when one of your players doesn’t shoot at all.


With the full acknowledgment that Larry Hughes brings his own set of problems, aren't you glad Ben Wallace is gone?

I think Paxson is underrated for pulling the wool over cleveland. the irony is that they don't even realize it yet.
