Trade Analysis

Atlanta Hawks Perspective

Cliff Levingston and Antoine Carr became valuable pieces of Atlanta's strong 1980s teams. Dan Roundfield remained productive, but the Hawks improved their depth and age curve.

Detroit Pistons Perspective

Atlanta won the transaction because its outgoing package produced deeper and longer-lasting value. Roundfield remained a productive veteran for Detroit, but Levingston, Carr's rights and the additional draft assets gave the Hawks the stronger A- return against Detroit's B. That gap supports a the other team Win.
