Frank and Sweetney are worth more than Gooden, who is a PROSPECT himself
Do you really think that Sweeney and Williams have proven their worth more then Gooden. They're all young so who knows what will happen. But Frank is a third string guard with about six good games on his resume who was taken very low in first round. Sweetney - has not even managed to keep himself on the roster for most of the season - never mind in the rotation.
Drew Gooden is playing 28 minutes a game average 12 pts and 6+ rebounds.
A lot of times I think fans like players who don't play much, more then players who play. Every time the player who doesn't play much does something good people get all excited by the potential. But once a player gets consistent minutes you can see the flaws.
I think if Isiah had the chance to make this trade he would. I Know I would. Could it turn out to be a bad move - yes. But I'll take a player who has proven he can play in the league and may improve over two guys who haven't manage to earn enough time to even be judged.
