So, with the NBA trade deadline coming closer and closer, we finally find out the faith of the Washington Wizards’ power forward Antawn Jamison. He will be joining another two Tar Heels, Jawad Williams and Danny Green, in the C-Town. Meaning that Jamison is now part of the “get a ring for the king” crusade that the Cavaliers are trying to do in this season. This all happened, from what I read on ESPN, through a three team deal between Washington, Cleveland and the LA Clippers. What the people in Bristol believe is that Jamison became the top target due to the fact that the Cavs would not have to give up J.J. Hickson in order to bring him to the Quicken Loans Arena to play. From the sounds of it Washington decides not to go after the Cavs’ young power forward so that they can more payroll and luxury tax relief come the end of the season.
As I do with all the Tar Heels let me be the first to congratulate Antawn Jamison on the move and wish him all the best in a run for the NBA Championship title.
