Since Peja is the one who asked to be traded, I think he's the one they should have traded. The Kings are now putting the future of their team on the shoulders of a guy who didn't even want to play for them. If it was just because of Webber taking away his shots, what does that say about Peja's selfishness and unwillingness to sacrifice for the team? In the end, of course, it was probably all about money with Peja on a bargain bin contract and C-Webb with the opposite of a bargain bin contract.
I think the Sixers instantly go from playoff hopefuls to contenders in the East while the Kings go in the opposite direction in the West. You can't make such drastic changes to your team midseason and expect everything to gel on the fly.
