Really interesting deal. I think the team that got the best end of it was Indiana, as I feel like Collinson can develop into a real stud, and they were desperate for a pg.
NJ got a nice player in Murphy, he should be really good next to Lopez, and it allows their 1st round big man to develop.
I think HOU comes in 3rd in this trade, in being able to obtain courtney lee. I think Ariza is better, but not by much, and it helps HOU to stay flexible. Morey always amazes me.
And I think NO has just made a big mistake. Ariza isn't worth that much, he's being overpaid for his talents, and what are they going to do if CP3 gets hurt? Collinson would have been the perfect player to replace CP3 if they ever moved him, I just don't think this was a good move for them.
