Imagine my shock when this trade, Ely for Eric Williams and a 2008 2nd rounder, didn't send shockwaves through the league. Actually, this could be huge for Ely. Granted, nobody gets good minutes in San Antone, save for the big 3 (Duncan, Parker and Ginobes), but with Frankie Elson & Oh Boy Oberto underacheiving and nobody else with any size, Ely could be in for major minutes. And he's always responded well when given a look (see the last 2 years when Okafor spent more time on the bench than I did in JV Lacrosse).
Progs: Great steal for the Spurs in the short run. But don't be surprised when E Wills actually gets minutes in Charlotte (for some reason teams always think this guy is good...). And then definitely don't be surprised when Charlotte parlays the 2nd round pick into the next Gerald Wallace... In short, solid move for both teams.

Z isn't going on this road trip for personal reasons. Does this mean he's on the block? I demand unfounded speculation about who would take our favorite Lithuanian and what we could receive in return.
Screw accountability, give me pure conjecture ASAP.
