June 25, 2009 Atlanta Hawks / Golden State Warriors Record confidence: Private Record

Trade Analysis

Atlanta Hawks Perspective

Atlanta acquired Jamal Crawford for two low-value contracts. Crawford became Sixth Man of the Year and a major scorer for a perennial playoff team.

Golden State Warriors Perspective

The outgoing value proved somewhat stronger than Golden State's return. Golden State's return was Acie Law; Speedy Claxton, while the cost was Jamal Crawford. The Warriors side grades at B- and the other team package at B+. The assessment weighs actual NBA production, contract and competitive-window context, and any realized draft conversion; it does not assume that later outcomes were perfectly predictable on the trade date.
