Well today is the trade deadline and the Lakers, Cavs, Blazers, and Nets have made some trades in the last minute. The time is about 1:53 as I'm typing this and there are the following trades that happened so far:
1. The Lakers have agreed to send Luke Walton and their own first round pick in 2012 to Cleveland for Ramon Sessions and Christian Eyenga. I actually think that this is a good trade for the Lakers. They have finally found someone to replace Fisher who is arguably one of the worst starting point guards in the NBA. Now if they can get Beasley from Minnesota, they are gonna have a deadly lineup (Sessions, Kobe, Beasley, Gasol and Bynum).

2. The Nets and Blazers have agreed on a deal in principle involving Gerald Wallace, according to two sources. The Nets will send Mehmet Okur, Shawne Williams and a top-3 2012 protected first round pick for Wallace. Not exactly sure if it is a good idea for the Nets to get rid of their top-3 2012 protected first round pick just for Wallace, but I guess it was an effort to surround Williams with good players to give him incentive to stay with the Nets.
