NBA trade deadline

Yesterday was the NBA trade deadline and it was an exciting one. A lot of big name players were traded by teams that are contenders for this year's championship. The most surprising to me was the trade between the Celtics and the Thunder that sent Kendrick Perkins to Oklahoma City. Certainly the biggest, most talked about trade was the trade of Carmelo Anthony to the New York Knicks. Everyone knows that the Knicks are trying to compete with the big 3 in Miami, but this team that New York put together is not nearly as good.
