Tyson Chandler Traded

The New Orleans Hornets have traded Tyson Chandler to the Oklahoma City Thunder for Chris Wilcox and Joe Smith. This could turn out to be a win win for both teams. I like Tyson Chandler as a player because he is a good rebounder and shot blocker who has some offensive skills. Oklahoma City already has Kevin Durant, Jeff Green and Russell Westbrook so they really don't need Chandler to score much. I like this move for New Orleans even more. New Orleans had gotten as far as they could with their current core. Chris Paul needs some help on the offensive end. The only weapon that he has is David West. Peja Stojakovic is having his worst season in 10 years. Joe Smith is a solid veteran defender who can give you 15-20 minutes a game and hit the midrange jumper. Chris Wilcox has tremendous upside. I remember how explosive he was in college at the University of Maryland and in Seattle. Wilcox has not been getting much time since the Thunder moved from Seattle. Wilcox could easily be a 15 and 10 guy with his athletic ability. He has a much better offensive game than Tyson Chandler.
