Are these trades ok?

Trading to make the team better
After some training games and trying out this LA Lakers team before my first game agianst Atlanta I found I don't have a big arsenal of 3 Point shooters. the only one who can shoot from outside is my Point Guard Chucky atkins and Kobe bryant. So I went to the Trade market with in mind that I needed 3 Point shooters and that I wanted to get my -8Mil. cap space down a bit.

1st Trade offer
The first trade offer I gave to Charlotte it was like this.

--------------------------------------

Gerald wallace 69
Jason Kapono 56

for

Caron Butler 69
Vlade Divac 57

--------------------------------------
Good things:
-I will lose some age and a Injury Prone player in Vlade Divac.
-I will get a good 3 Point shooter in Jason Kapono
-My cap space will go from -8,16Mil. to -3,34Mil.

Bad things
-I will lose a future Star in Caron Butler.


2nd Trade offer
The first trade offer I gave to New Orleans it was like this.

--------------------------------------

J.R. Smith 60
Casey Jacobsen 55

for

Devean George 63
Jumaine Jones 57

--------------------------------------

Good things:
-I will get a future Allstar in J.R. Smith
-I will get a good 3 Point shooter in Casey Jacobsen
-My cap space will go from -8,16Mil. to -7,05Mil.

Bad things
-I will Get worse players back in Ratings.


Free Agent Signings

I was also thinking of signing Free Agent Rookie Center David Harrison. He is a 50 Center that's 7'0 and he only wants like 350K for this season.


Guys tell me what do you think of these trades and signings. Please give some arguments for your opinion when you give it.

Thse trades ar very accurate. Although if you want a solid 3-point shooter get a good one like Joe Johnson, Leandro Barbosa, or Hedo Turkoglu

I question the trades because i dont think they make the team better really....

You get a couple guys who can shoot (Kapono/Jacobson) but there only gonna see limited minutes behind Bryant/ G Wallace.....

So id look to unload a couple SF's to a team that REALLY needs them and try to get some help where you need it (PG and C)

Teams to consider....

Miami - Maybe Damon Jones would be a good fit for PG, he can shoot the lights out....

Chicago? - They may be keen for SF depth with Deng still developing.... Could you get Curry for Butler/Divac?

anyways, just some ideas
