I guess the Wiz really wanted the cap space

Why wouldn't you?
They get the best player.
I assume the Bullets are hopeful that LaSalle Thompson turns out to be what Mike Gminski already is. And the only thing they get in return is an aging Sobers.

Seems fairly balanced for this exact reason. If LaSalle can be a good C next year for a quarter the price I can afford to shop around FA

Thompson is only 2 years younger than Gminski but I think their value is closer than it looks and if the Bullets wanted to clear cap space for the off-season then the tradeoff wont be too drastic

Rockets gain a more established C to pair next to McHale so I like that for them

Done
