Trade Analysis
Washington gets the slight overall edge. The Bullets added Cliff Robinson and converted McCormick's rights into Gus Williams, while Seattle received McCormick and Cleveland's Turpin return did not justify the cost. Washington and Seattle share the top A- grade, but Washington's combined realized return gives it the narrow edge.
