Hawks Trade
Penny Hardaway
Enis Whatley
Pat Garrity
Celtics Trade
Horce Grant
Andre Miller
Raptors 02 first
An interesting trade for both. Hawks get the PF they need and a young PG that may develop along with Redd and Miller quite nice. Pick probably won't be great, but stranger things have happened.
I think this is huge for the Celtics though. Adding a talent like Penny to be with Vince Carter, Bobby Jackson, and Etan Thomas is a great start for the Celtics to get to the playoffs.

I really liked it for both. The Hawks fill their PF need and get a very nice understudy for TB. If Etan Thomas ends up being solid, the Celts don't lose much, since Dre was expendable because of B Jax. Penny was also expendable for the Hawks after the emergence of Redd during TC.
I'll go with the Hawks, but this is a very good trade for both.

Also like it for the Hawks because they now will pretty much clear away bigger, older contracts and can focus a lot better on the future too

Both.
Hawks fill an immediate need (power forward) and get their point guard of the future (Andre Miller) which means that Brandon (who already was) can be expendable.
Celtics get Penny who is solid scorer and can probably try his hand at running the point as well.
The only downside is that the Celtics lose big guys but I think VC and Penny can be successful together.

I was susprised the deal with the Hawks/Wolves wasn't made instead of this one, although I know Roark was high on Dre Miller's possibility to replace TB as the Lakers mentioned.
