Trade Deadline Thread

[TurnUpTheHeat]

With trading Birdman, we have Amare and Udonis Haslem left outside of Whiteside.

Yep.
Amare is the best of the bunch if he can stay healthy.
Bird didn't play much this season, but looked slow and old when he did.
Nothing much figured to happen and nothing much did.
Heat got under the tax threshold which is a win.
Now, we just wait for the Beasley announcement.

Nick Young thought the trade deadline was yesterday. Byron Scott: "I don't think Nick pays a whole lot of attention to current events."

So who wants to fight Memphis? Lance, Zbo, Barnes, and Bird lol

Grizz might lose the game, but they'll win the fight in the parking lot after the game.

I think there were actually a lot of win-win trades that happened:

Washington and Phoenix was a good trade for both. Washington got a guy they can plug in for Nene after he leaves in the off-season. A fresh start, with solid leaders in the locker room could do wonders for a guy as talented as Morris is. Phoenix got a 1st round draft pick, which is probably as best as they could hope for.

Cavs, Orlando & Portland:
-Portland acquires another pick, by just absorbing Varaejo's contract. With this trade they finally reach up to the NBA salary cap floor. Even with his contact on the books for next year, the Blazers still have a ton of cap space.
-Cavs get another big who can stretch the floor and it cost them next to nothing.
-Orlando got rid of Frye's contract and more cap space.

Memphis and Clippers:
-Memphis gets a first rounder for nothing. Stephenson is a non-guaranteed contract and will not be retained.
-Clippers get Jeff Green on a rental, for a guy who wasn't producing for them. Might help shore up their SF problem.

Pistons acquired Tobias Harris, Marcus Thorton and Donatas Motiejunas for Brandon Jennings, Ersan Ilyasova, Joel Anthony and a second round pick. That's pretty amazing. They are the big winners, IMO.

Kirk Hinrich to Atlanta for a second-round pick. Welcome back to Atlanta, Kirk.

Lance is a little bitch

 

[Shanemansj13]

They can still complete trades after bc it looks like they still are? lol

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Washington is down. They just added a team fight leader in Markieff Morris. Best part is, he doesn't limit himself to just opponents, he'll even fight his own teammates!

Makes me think they know they ain't getting Durant.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Missed the action. What happened? Work is driving in crazier than I already was.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Tobias Harristo the Pistons was a nice move.

 

[DJ Fieri]

The Cavs big trade was getting Chandler Frye?

 

[DJ Fieri]

Love the Stephenson trade for Green for the Clipps.
