Walker traded

[AHF]

Are all these guys expiring contracts? (If either googs or stewart aren't expiring this is insanity).

AJC.com reports:

And Thursday afternoon the Hawks obliged his request, sending Walker back to Boston in a blockbuster deal that sends a 2005 first-round draft pick, future Hall of Fame point guard Gary Payton and veterans Michael Stewart and Tom Gugliotta to the Hawks.

Much better deal especially since all are expiring contracts:

Payton, Stewart and Gugliotta will wear Hawks uniforms for the next 29 games, if at all, as all of their contracts, like Walker's, expire at the end of the season

Now I am officially excited. If we can get a center and point guard in this draft that would be excellent.

Didn't Doc Rivers take a shot at walker's game a few months ago? Why would they do this trade?
