The blockbuster trade that sent Antawn Jamison and Sebastian Telfair to Cleveland, Zydrunas Ilgauskas, Al Thornton, a 2010 first round pick, and the rights to Emir Preldzic to the Wizards, and Drew Gooden to the Clippers was finalized on Wednesday.
The Cavs went with the trade because they weren’t sold on Amare Stoudemire, and they didn’t have to give up J.J. Hickson. One could argue that Jamison was the perfect fit for them, since he can stretch the floor, score, and is known around the league as a savvy veteran.
