Well, the Sonics traded Ray Allen to the Boston Celtics along with rookie Glen Davis for Delonte West, Wally Szczerbiak and rookie forward Jeff Green.  This move will ensure that the Sonics have one of the worst teams in the entire NBA in 2007.  Delonte West will likely either start at point guard or shooting guard for the Sonics and he’s nothing special.  He played in 69 games (47 starts) for the Celtics last season and he averaged 32.2 minutes, 12.2 points, 3.0 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.1 steals per game.  He is a good shooter though as he hit 42.7% from the floor, 36.5% from three point range and 85.3% from the free throw line.  West’s career numbers have been pretty steady over his NBA career to this point so the Sonics will probably know what to expect from him.  He has played in 179 career games (125 starts) and he’s averaged 28.7 minutes, 10.4 points, 3.0 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.1 steals per game.  He has hit 45.3% from the floor, 37.4% from the three point line and 84% from the free throw line in his NBA career.

Wally Szczerbiak was banged up all last season for the Celtics but he’s a decent player when healthy.  Szczerbiak played in 32 games (19 starts) last season for the Celtics and he averaged 28.1 minutes, 15.0 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game.  He shot a tad below normal from the floor as he only hit 41.5% of his shots, but he hit 41.5% from three point range and 89.7% from the free throw line.  Szczerbiak has had a good NBA career and the Sonics hope he has a little more gas in the tank.  He has played in 502 NBA games (386 starts) and he’s averaged 33.4 minutes, 15.6 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game.  He has shot well over his NBA career as he’s hit 49.3% from the floor, 40.4% from three point range and 86.2% from the free throw line.

Jeff Green was the number 5 pick in the NBA Draft.  The 6′9″, 235 pound forward from Georgetown will likely pair with Kevin Durant at forward to give the Sonics a talented tandem.  Green played in 102 games at Georgetown and he averaged 13.2 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 0.9 steals and 1.2 blocks per game.
