What does everyone think of the trade? It should help a bit. Howard
isn't what he once was, but he's still a solid player. Getting rid of
James frees up minutes for Foye, which is also good.

While it is a minor deal, i think it is a good move for the Wolves. No
talent gain, but this one move goes a long way to resolve some of the
roster imbalance. Now Foye slides into the starting pg spot, and T-Hud
can back up Foye. Davis, Hassell, Jaric and McCants and will share
minutes at the SG and SF postion, while Smith, KG, Blount MadDog and
Howard now give the Wolves five players to to play the PF and C
positions.

Drafting a big man is not as much of a priority now. If a guy like
Conley is available, the Wolves can go with the "best player available
approach", rather than drafting a lesser player due to need.
