Trade Analysis

Atlanta Hawks Perspective

Mike Bibby stabilized Atlanta's backcourt and helped end the franchise's playoff drought. Sacramento received quantity but little high-end value.

Sacramento Kings Perspective

The central cost was Mike Bibby, which ultimately outperformed the return of Anthony Johnson. Sacramento Kings did not recover an equivalent player or pick, and the secondary considerations could not offset the difference. The completed results produce a decisive loss for the franchise.
