Well, I was right that the Crawford/Harrington trade could set in motion more trades. No way did I think that those trades would start happening within hours.

Apparently Zach Randolph and Mardy Collins have been shipped (pun intended) to the Clippers for Cuttino Mobley and Tim Thomas. I assumed that Chicago would be the team to make a play for Randolph, but I was right that it would be in exchange for an over-paid shooting guard and a useless forward.
