Around SBN: Chauncey Billups Injures Achilles Tendon

The NBA trade deadline is a favorite of hoops fans. It’s the time when contenders, unanimous and cusp alike, ponder mortgaging the future for a better shot at championship glory. It also happens to be the same time that pretenders and bottom-dwellers look to sell off their expensive veterans for future hopes, or maybe steal a building-block from the downtrodden.

I did an article for Hardwood Paroxysm today on the history of the trade deadline. There's also a link over there to my full salary spreadsheets for the league. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Wow Wyn

You have great salary information. I think I’m going to start using this, and comparing the others to it. (Seriously, that’s saying something.) Thanks for linking it! (I currently use Sham & DX as they are pretty user friendly for others to understand. But you’ve got great info here!)

No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....

much obliged pookey

i definitely compare my stuff to sham (and i think dx uses his stuff), so in the end there are plenty of sites with accurate numbers. my pride is the format and calculations (tax and cap projections and such).

i’d be honored to be a source of yours :)

But, of course, you’re going to be a credited source.
