While I was smelling grease all day at the mechanics yesterday, the Wizards decided to make a trade in hopes of not being so terrible. Â Unfortunately they picked up Mike James, so waiting for Gilbert to heal is still their best hope to finish with at least 20 wins this season. Â On the bright side, Brandon Jennings in Washington would fit like a glove if the Wizards can tank enough games.
“New Orleans sent Mike James to Washington in exchange for Antonio Daniels as part of a three-team trade that returned a future first-round draft pick from the Wizards to Memphis. Memphis also dealt Javaris Crittenton to Washington and sent a conditional second-round pick to New Orleans, while the Wizards waived guard Dee Brown.”
