Artest/Croshere - Decreases Roster

[PiusDoe]

Not sure if Indiana would do this...and I am not thrilled with losing Josh Howard, but it clears two roster spots and fills some needs maybe.

Dallas Trades: Jerry Stackhouse, Shawn Bradley, Josh Howard, Jon Steffanson
Indiana Trades: Ron Artest, Austin Croshere

Providing the Dampier trade goes through as proposed...

PG: Terry, Harris, Dickau, AJ
SG: Finley, Daniels
SF: Artest, TAW?
PF: Dirk, Croshere, Hendersen
C: Dampier, Booth, M'Benga, Podkolzine, Esch

I don't know...I like getting Artest and Croshere and dumping roster spots...but haven't been able to come up with a better way than this.
