Trade deadline thread

Suns are right ABOVE the Warriors and the Suns are equal to the Nets but there's a lot of story left to be written

Lakers can't acquire Freedom, since they already had World Peace.

LOL

here’s the what the Nets did: Gave away Jarret Allen, Caris Levert, four 1st round picks and three first round swaps, in exchange for….Ben Simmons and Seth Curry. Eeeesh.


Whereas, the Cavs got Allen and Levert for two 1st rounders in the mid/late-20s. Altman can laugh himself to sleep tonight.

The Nets got Drummond and 2 first rounders in this deal

They say if the World has Peace then the World B. Free

Don't love Zinger for Dinwiddie

You forgot Bertans lol. They do have Bullock but I think the more shooting around Doncic the better but yeah I don't get the Dinwiddie fit. I really don't think he fits with most teams though.

I can't be the only one who sometimes mixes up @Shanemansj13 and @Stakesarehigh

How dare you!! I'm offended, no way I am a Pistons and Tigers fan!

Brunson is probably gone after the season and Dragic is just there for the rest of this season.

Thst situation in Dallas was untenable, he had to go at whatever price to ever move forward.

I think the 2 first rounders in this deal might have been included in the overall amount of 1st rounders coming/going.

Drummond? anyone could have signed him for the league minimum before the season, right? But, sure, he should be included. They also gave up Kurucs, but don't think that needed to be mentioned either.

I definitely know who is who in their posts, but for sure I sometimes see the name of one and think of the other.

Mark Cuban has done an excellent job in alienating everyone in his organization not named Luka. And this comes at at time when they were just starting to win…

I honestly have no idea what this franchise is trying to accomplish.

Looking over all the deals, I kinda think the Bucks are the big winners of the day. Getting Ibaka boosts them back up to favorites out of the East imo. He can replace that little bit of edge of toughness they had last year with PJ Tucker and didn't really give up much of anything to get him (Allen replicates DiVicenzo nicely). Bucks have had people coming and going with injuries all season, but when everyone gets back healthy, gonna be hard to stop Giannis come playoff time.

And Enes will be free from the Rockets. Maybe the Lakers pick him up LOL

It's likely never gonna happen because of this reason, but I want it to happen so bad.

Bucks needed 7 vs banged up Nets. I think this roster is better. That’s where I’m coming from. I’m also assuming best case scenario on a lot of what ifs for Nets. Everybody gets healthy. Simmons attaches himself to a role.

The only thing that will save the rest of us is the possibility of Steve Nash fucking it up haha.

Nets have a nice roster on paper but there's a lot of questions. When/If will Kyrie become a full time player? What will Ben Simmons look like? Dude hasn't played in forever. Will Joe Harris ever come back?

I still like the Bucks to win the East but the 76ers will be in the mix. Nets could as well if those questions get answered.

The Nets got a lot better today
Curry and Drummond are huge pieces moving forward as well.

Kyrie wanted Harden gone so lets see what he will do

Durant stays healthy and the Nets are the favorites

 

[raptorlife4]

Curry and Patty Mills for the nets will be lethal
Damn they are going to be tough
