True, but that team is about KG. As long as he can play at the level he's at now they can handle any declines in Pierce or Allen.

On a different note, Minnesota should pick up a nice trade exception from this--think they'd want some more players, i.e., Buckner & DJ, or does the fact that they just acquired 5 guys in this deal make that moot?

Hard to say. Buckner's essentially an older version of Trenton Hassell, so I doubt they'd want him. Mbenga's a possibility though.
