I do not know what Golden State is doing.

Three-way for Giannis. Maybe LA involved. Just cuz LA needs to do something.

Not even on trade deadline day and this is maybe the most active trade deadline ever?

This has been wild. I'm still hoping we have some moves left from our front office.

 

[inconceivable]

we have to make a move to give room for love

 

[Chris Craig]

Good. Curry and the Warriors need to fade into obscurity.

Also, this must mean the Blazers are moving on as well?

And Sidy. Need to eject Rupert and Murray.

If not the Blazers, where would you like to see Giannis land? It appears it's between NY, Miami, and Minny now

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Kuminga and Hield to the Hawks?

I have to say I really like what Atlanta has done the last year. Jalen is a beast. Trae Young was super overrated - he's basically just Anfernee Simons but less healthy. Kuminga is a good guy to take a flyer on. They control a couple years of Bucks picks.

They're still probably 2 years away but they could be a force in that weak conference for the next decade depending on how all these picks work out.

I want to see him stay right where he is

SA.

Like to see him with Wemby.

Think Minnesota because #1 I love watching Heat fans cry and #2 I think Giannis is gonna age poorly in 3 years which will set that team back in our conference.

[SharpesTriumph]

Honestly I think that's the best move for the Blazers. Giannis value continues to drop and the value of those Bucks picks we own just keep going up.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Clippers should just fire sale everyone and get what they can.

I know they don't have their picks so no they don't need to do any of the tanking stuff... But their not contending soon. Other teams could use their vets and give up pick(s)

 

[Chris Craig]

All these centers on the move and we aren't trying to get any of them?

 

[RR7]

All these centers on the move and we aren't trying to get any of them?

Clippers want 2 picks for Zubac. We have our starting C and just need a more healthy backup. Why would we be involved in that?

 

[SharpesTriumph]

All these centers on the move and we aren't trying to get any of them?

Yeah I would've got TJD from the warriors. Nice complementary skill set to Clingan.

Is there any way we're sitting out of those talks because we believe in Yang?

While yeah we could use a center I also was hoping we'd shop Timelord - were not contending this year so if we could get value it's worth cashing that in.

 

[inconceivable]

Zubac is nice. He gives Joker the most difficulty. I wonder what would it take to get him. Seems like Clippers are on a fire sale

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Sounds like if Giannis is traded tomorrow it's either the Heat or Wolves.

 

[Chris Craig]

Yang is going to take a couple of years. We need to move Williams and bring in someone more reliable as back up till Yang develops.

 

[wizenheimer]

waive Thybulle

 

[Sheldon Shape]

we have to make a move to give room for love

He barely played last game and Scoot isn't even back. Sidy is the priority.

 

[Chris Craig]

waive Thybulle

Nah

Waive Rupert or Murray if you can't trade them

 

[RR7]

waive Thybulle

I like him, seems like a good locker room guy, but that move makes the most sense if we're waiving someone. Sissoko and Vit can take his minutes. Sharpe can as well at the 3 with our 8 PGs

 

[wizenheimer]

And Sidy. Need to eject Rupert and Murray.

won't be Murray, unless he's traded. Blazers owe him 5.3M next season; which is probably why nobody would trade for him

 

[riverman]

Thybulle is like Elliot Williams was..tons of talent but can't stay on the court. He's missed more than months, he's missed years. His jersey is probably moldy from an Oregon winter in storage. Move or waive Rupert and Thybulle and sign the two way guys. Trade Rob Will for a healthier backup big or keep him. He's only available half the time which is a problem. Vit will back up Toumani now and Blake will back up Scoot or Jrue when Scoot is in game shape

 

[riverman]

I don’t see how we don’t make a deal with Sidy and Love hanging in balance

Sidy they'll waive Rupert for...with Blake and Scoot back Caleb might end the season with the Remix
