not a bad deal for Orlando, considering camby is going into the F.A. pool without enough birds to be resigned. They at least get some value out of him.
Camby still is the best player in the deal though and I'm glad they dealt him.

This was a tough decision to make, especially since we are only 1 game out of the division lead and the #2 seed.
For some reason this year, this team could not get it done, and with the Hornets and Grizzlies so dominant, i thought our chances at winning the title was small. If Camby walked for nothing I would be left with a gaping hole at PF.
This trade eliminates me from contention this year (if i even was in contention) but gives me a young C for the frontcourt rotation and a 2001 pick that could be decent. Camby was great, but at some point you cut your losses.
Not to mention, with Camby's stellar play, and his credentials around the league, i figured someone could waay outbid me

Camby is so good, Like this for NY a bit more.
But not bad value for shaun.

im surprised by this trade to be honest .
it would make sense for a contendor to get camby to try push for a ring this year. but ny is already out of the playoffs, unless dan believes this makes them a contendor this year, which is fine. if not, its a 20 day rental for a prospect and a pick.
hopefully it works out for dan and he doesn't walk for a max deal elsewhere , I just didn't want to risk that

The trade puts NY is a good position to win now...they have a very solid team. The fact that Camby has no birds sucks though.
Orlando gets rid of someone who they probably couldn't resign for some potential future talent.
