    They are very relevant to whether or not this deal was great/good. The Lakers didn't trade for Kwame or draft Crittenton knowing that there was a good chance they would be flipping them in a few months for another pick. Morey made the trade knowing he was going to need cap space in a few months and probably figured that TRob would have better trade value than PPat. Flipping TRob is likely one of the main reasons he traded for him so what he flips him for most definitely should be factored into whether or not the trade was a success.

    Can we clearly define or rather agree on what "stardom" means in the NBA?

    There is a good chance that we will never hear of Kevin Pelton again.

    Oh, I disagree with that completely. Really, I don't mind Carl posting stuff he finds on Robinson. What bothers me a bit is that he starts threads about the tidbits, instead of just keeping a thread going about the guy. That, and I wish he'd pop his shoulder back into place more often. Walking around with it stuck out at an odd angle is kinda crazy.

    The last TRob thread I posted was on 6/1/2013, when Marc Spears made his comment about there being little trade interest in him.

    It's okay to hate on TRob ...but it's becoming a less and less relevant topic of discussion.

    Patrick Patterson is essentially a prime Scott Padgett. Don't trip...

    We should trade T-Rob to Portland for the two consecutive second rounders they have this year. They get energy off the bench which they need badly! We get more steals in the 2nd round. Its a win-win.

    Let me make it easy for you. Patterson is mediocre. He is not good enough to be a starting power forward on an elite team.
