Reasons for the trade from Clippers: Need another player to solidify my front court and push for the playoffs. As it looks now, we will be outside the bubble for the playoffs and watching the ping pong balls bounce around but hopefully this changes our fortunes for the future. Giving up a young stud in Turner is a risk but we feel as though Kidd-Gilchrist, through the mentoring of Ray Allen can step in with his versatility to fill that position once Allen retires.
Reasons for the trade from Hawks: Hawks need an infusion of youth if they want to be successful in the future. As of now, they are outside of the playoff hunt and want 3 things out of this trade: to clear cap space for the future free agency, acquire a 1st round draft choice, and acquire a future franchise SG in Evan Turner. Also add in veteran all-star David West, and the future looks brighter for this franchise.
