I love this trade for one reason. We gave up NOTHING.
I mean, yeah, technically we traded Speedy Claxton and Acie Law IV, but neither contributed anything the past two seasons. Claxton has been injured since we signed him. And I think Law may have been a player but Woodson is a screw-up so what does it matter?
Crawford is an established player. I don't know what they'll now do with Bibby though. They may re-sign him, move Crawford to the point or re-visit the JJ-at-PG experiment they tried when they first got him. Teague (more on him later) is too young to play it full time.
My only problem with this is I don't know if Woodson can handle all the egos. I'm actually kind of scared of it.
Golden State just wanted Crawford gone. At any cost. So they took back a player with and insurance payed contract in Claxton and a still-could-develop PG in Law.
