Exclusive 2019 Trade Deadline Thread

[TBpup]

Because no one wants to take on dead salary next year.

Turner, Harkless and Leonard are all dead salaries.

Exactly right....Neil's own doing.

Aminu isn't

 

[Scalma]

Aminu isn't

Untouchable sorry.

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Ike Anigbogu is being waived by the Pacers to make the Nik / Baldwin deal and this screams of the dumpster diving that NeO will get after he strikes out on .. Kanter , Jordan ( if bought out ) and whoever else

 

[illmatic99]

Untouchable sorry.

Sad. At this point, I think Leonard is more useful than Aminu. Last 20 games or so, he has been totally useless

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

I bet we trade Aminu though, but nothing exciting

A dump to MEM for their newly created trade exception would put us below the tax

 

[DDolla]

Damn, we are waiting for another leftovers... sad

 

[B-Roy]

Do it. Start Harkless and Jake.

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

NO has literally wasted all of Dame's career. A potential HOF.

Neil specialty. He will give us all some crock about how it "takes 2 teams" or there weren't any deals out there, but other teams don't seem to be having any troubles.

 

[JDC]

Aminu isn't

Well you'd likely have to combine him with one of our dead salaries which would probably force us to give up our first.

And even then, we probably aren't finding a needle mover.

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

Good luck beating that

 

[illmatic99]

I'm guessing that's prolly it when it comes to players of significance. Last hour of the deadline is usually salary dumps and tax trimmings

 

[bradk8605]

Regardless if the Blazers make any moves, this deadline has been very active compared to years past.

 

[Hoopguru]

I don't think Dame wold agree with that. Plus the season isn't over! Rip City

 

[Eastoff]

Good luck beating that

Yeah, we can't beat that offer

 

[oldmangrouch]

Operative word here is rumored.

Or maybe teams just aren't impressed with the players available in the 20s in this draft.

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

I don't think Dame wold agree with that. Plus the season isn't over! Rip City

Wanna bet they get bounced in the first round?

 

[illmatic99]

Regardless if the Blazers make any moves, this deadline has been very active compared to years past.

That makes our inactivity even worse

 

[Pinwheel1]

Good guess

Wow that is a lot IMO for the aging Gasol. That is a win for both teams.

 

[ripcityboy]

Because no one wants to take on dead salary next year.

Turner, Harkless and Leonard are all dead salaries.

By the end of next year those moves will have screwed him of the ability to move during three separate mid season trade windows
And he probably won't have been called on it once. Good move on Neil. He works at a place where he is above any substantial criticism.

 

[e_blazer]

Maker --> Collins
Smith --> Simons

Would we have done Collins + Simons + seconds for Mirotic?

Mirotic makes $12.5 M. Collins makes $3.6 M and Simons $1.8 M. That's a $7 M fail.

 

[James lamphear]

The thing about this year from 2-7 position any these could win playoff series against the other that how close teams are this year.

 

[Hoopguru]

Wanna bet they get bounced in the first round?

By who?

 

[rotary111]

NO trades Rodney Hood and a future second to Indiana for Nik Stauskus and Wade Baldwin.

Claims he made several great trades before the deadline.

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

By who?

Literally any matchup we'd be likely to get from seeds 3-8

 

[SwissBlazer]

 

[Hoopguru]

Literally any matchup we'd be likely to get from seeds 3-8

I think they get out of the first round this year.

 

[TBpup]

Literally any matchup we'd be likely to get from seeds 3-8

Same as last year. And yet no matter who we play, seems to have been a 'bad match-up'.
