Up in the Air

What happens to those players that were supposed to get traded on by Thursday and didn?t? Some of them might have to wait until the summer while others will stay with their respective teams. The Hawks have cooled on the Al Harrington talk, but given that he may walk this summer with no compensation, that may force a deal. The Hawks have also had talks about Ty Lue, both could be moved today.

Antoine Walker was rumored to be the odd man out, but Miami decided to keep him (or couldn?t find a taker take your pick). Although the HEAT are the one team said to covet Denver?s Voshon Lenard, possibly in exchange for Michael Doleac. Dorell Wright?s name has also been mentioned as a chip Miami may be willing to cash too.

Surprisingly enough, the Mavericks were not in the market at all. They basically turned away incoming requests and are not making outgoing calls, word is they like their chemistry a lot and they do not see any needs they can fill in trade.
