I agree


Sonics agree.

I hate to see these two fine big men go.  But, let's face it, we are not a playoff-bound club, and the chance to pick up a future first was worth the deal.

I like the two big men I acquire here. Hobson is a bigger version of Udonis Haslem (Ratings wise) and since Haslem dropped off this year, it's nice to replace him with someone more solid.

Speedy is no big loss, he would be 3rd in my rotation at PG, and even then I'm starting to like Crawford with those A+ handles so he may even have been 4th!

If I can get 10 and 8 from Strong I will be happy, as I imagine him being 6th man behind a front 5 of O'Connell/J-Rich/Shard/Holman/Abdur-Rahim...

...starting to look better
