Trade Deadline Thread

[DJ Fieri]

The buyout market is gonna be big this year. There's quite a few good rotational players that are gonna be out there and could help a lot of teams. Kanter, Matthews, Ellington come to mind right away

Jordan may get bought out also.

Of course they would have, but no one is stupid enough to not know that Lebron and his agent are the ones that orchestrated this so soon. He made his bed, he can lie in it.

So soon? The week of the trade deadline? Of course the Lakers would've done this.

Nets get Greg Monroe and second rounder from Raptors for cash considerations.

Monroe will be waived.

 

[Taddy Mason]

Did they trade him for a sack of potatoes?

pretty much.

 

[shopson67]

Kings waiving Ben McLemore

Mavs buying out Zach Randolph

Monroe will be waived.

Raptors now have 4 roster spots to fill

 

[flyerhawk]

For whatever reason, you're gonna have to fight the Pistons for him. Reports say they are gonna go after him hard.

Zach Lowe thinks the Sixers will go after him as well.

Lmao, he is under contract through next year with no option.

Lakers going in on some shooting. Muscala is a center that can fire from deep. Bet their active in the buyout market as well, picking up lots of guys

I think they'll try at least.

Cavs were always able to deliver help for LeBron at the deadline. The Lakers got a couple guys that are not even guys you want in a playoff rotation.

Someone please show me why anyone should believe that Magic Johnson actually knows what he is doing as the GM of a team.

LOL at the rest of this season with the Lakers

All of those guys Lebron tried to trade.

What a shitshow

 

[raptorlife4]

Raps need Ellington

We have 10 players on the roster.

He will get lots of burn if thats what he is looking for

What a shitshow

I was listening to the Bucher podcast earlier today- he said that this summer he did not think Rondo and James was a good fit since Rondo would actually go at LeBron when he was not trying on defense etc.

the other night- at the Pacers- they showed that Rondo could have sat down next to LeBron---there were 3 open seats next to him- instead Bucher said Rondo walked all the way to the other side of the bench- across all of the coaches- and sat down in between 2 guys.

Bucher was talking about how the Lakers are mad at Rich Paul right now- and that the team and its best player and leader are not on the same page.

If the Lakers are gonna have any chance at the post season LeBron is going to have to call a team meeting and clear the air and eat some shit and get these young guys back into the right frame of mind.

Lebron went to LA and is now a Diva

If i am the Lakers I would deal him. Keep the young players with something to prove and grab a haul for him to complement

[WiggyRuss]

if the Thunder do not get him i hope the Raptors do

He isn't the problem. It's what the Lakers have done over the past couple seasons with trades, drafts, etc. and current management.

You guys got Patrick McCaw. How much help do you need? #greedy

Tons of respect for Lebron as a player but ever since he went to LA he cant keep his mouth shut on anything
