Anthony Parker is would be a solid starting 2, hits the three, scores 10 ppg, plays great defense and can pass.
We trade Josh, Diop, and Wright for a 7 footer that can score and rebound as much as Josh, shoots better, and can play center at times (instead of Diop). We also get a starting 2 for a project 2 (wright) and get much better 3 point shooting!
Damp/Bargnani/Dirk
Dirk/Bass
Bargnani/Singleton
Parker/Jet/Green
Kidd/JJB
That is a much more solid lineup 1-5,solid backups too. And guys, Bargnani is 23!!! He will get better.
The rumor also said we get someone else to match salaries.
Finally, It's never bad to get people in with more quality character than the people you are shipping out.
I think it's a good trade.

Bargnani and Dirk on the court together against many teams is asking for disaster. Two players without the quickness to keep up with SF's.
When we play Houston, who guards Artest? NO-Peja? etc.
Bargnani has some SF skills -- Dirk does as well -- but there is no way he plays D as a SF should.
