This was a steal, plain and simple.

I didn't think any of those guys were traded. They are the future and all 3 have done everything they can to prove themselves.
Without giving up any of those 3, the only logical piece in my view was Hudler +#15. I was still doubtful because he was such a key player/veteran, but if a guy like Hamilton was on the block, it was a deal that had to be done.
Then I saw the trade, and I was blown away.
