Joe Johnson to the Nets as free agency, big mistake for nets???

With free agency on its way the Atlanta Hawks have made the most noise so far by getting rid of Joe Johnson. The Hawks have made a great move by getting rid of perhaps the worse deal of the 2010 free agency. The trade will go through as followed: the Nets will receive Joe Johnson (who still has almost 90 million and three years left on his contract), while the the Hawks receive Jordan Farmar, Johan Petro, Anthony Morrow, Jordan Williams, and Deshawn Stevenson.
The Hawks are clearly looking to clear cap space, they also traded away marvin williams for Devin Harris. So in one week they have gotten rid of their two biggest contract. This trade works perfectly for both teams, the Nets are looking to give Deron Williams a reason to stay, and now they have. This deal will only go through under the notion that Williams will resign with the Nets and he should.
The Nets will play this year in their new arena in Brooklyn, signed Gerald Wallace to a 4 year deal, and managed to keep Promising guard MarShon Brooks. The Nets will have in their starting 5 Deron Williams (should he resign), JJ, Gerald Wallace, and Brook Lopez. People perhaps have forgotten how good Brook Lopez is, he sat out this year with a foot injury but was averaging 19.2 ppg before he went down. Joe Johnson did not deserve the contract he has, and is definitely not a first option star, but joe as a second or third option behind Brook Lopez and Deron Williams is a devastating option.
The Nets will definitely make the playoffs with this group and perhaps challenge for home court in the first round. Specially against the weaker eastern conference in which after the defending champions, there is not an established second best or third team at this point. What this does though, is take the Nets out of contention for Dwight Howard. Howard made the mistake of opting into the last year of his contract, and essentially putting the ball back in the Magic's court.
Which now leads us to the other side of the trade. The Atlanta Hawk's new general manager Danny Ferry noticed something we have known for a few years. This Atlanta Hawks group's ceiling has been no more than the second round of the playoffs for the last few years. They did not get any relevant players in comparison to Joe Johnson, but now put themselves in position to sign none other than Dwight Howard next summer. The Hawks also have promising young players Al Horford and Jeff Teague to shop around. This is one of those rare big name trades in which both teams come out winning.
For years, the Hawks have had Joe Johnson dribbling the ball at the top of the key for 20 seconds of the shot clock at the end of games. Making everybody wonder why did they give him the biggest contract in the heralded 2010 free agency. Now they position themselves to potentially make a run at Dwight Howard. That being said, Joe Johnson is a GREAT player and a proven All-Star, he just isn't good enough to be the de facto go to guy. Now he'll potentially play with one of the best point guards in the game. Now, remember this only goes through if Deron Williams resigns with Brooklyn. Meanwhile the Hawks now put themselves in position to sign Dwight Howard and another great point guard who will also be a free agent in the summer of 2013, Chris Paul.
