Has anyone felt that this was the most boring summer of Hoops in a couple of years? No big FA frenzy, just everything has remained status quo amid a flurry of BLAH trades - i mean, the mutombo trade or the dice trade, even the clippers trade, they were all Blah.

Miami sure must be happy they got Butler though... Riley probably has a huge grin on his face right now.

They were a bunch of little trades (no big FA signings though), but the trades could turn out to be huge. If Vin Baker returns to his old form, the Celtics will be incredible, the Clips have a great young PG and that group could really mature into a force, and even the Dyess trade could turn out to be big in the East.
