Merged: |0fficial| Trade Deadline (2 Viewers)

With the crazy Boogie trade going down, I wonder if Crabbe, some combo of Hark/Meyers/Davis/Aminu, and picks could land Drummond and Jackson.

I'm convinced anything can happen.

Anything can happen when your FO is as incompetent as the Kings. Just cause SAC jumped off a cliff doesn't mean the rest of the GMs are going to.

Kings almost undoubtedly try to move Rudy Gay for draft picks/young talent. Agree?

Rudy Gay is worthless. Expiring (player option) and out for the season.

Oh shit I had no idea he had surgery on his Achilles.

Wow that makes it even worse for the Kings. If they can't move Gay for picks then it is a total half assed rebuild. Man I feel bad for the real Kings fans out there...

Idk, at this point maybe we could sell them on meyers "potential" in a deal for him.

Would make sense for Sacramento to offer him and the first round pick they just acquired to dump his salary on someone. I know it makes zero logical sense. Would be so Kings.

He's expiring. No reason to dump him when his contract is already mostly paid.

No way Rudy opts-out of his player option. He will be owed $14 million next year. They can try to trade him at some point during next season since he won't be ready for on-court activities for a long time.

Exactly. This is why Kings have to do this to add to their list of idiotic moves.

In 2007 Jeff Green was drafted by BOS and traded to OKC.

I was talking at the same time...

 

[Blazinaway]

So unless we do a blockbuster trade with our picks, with Cousins going to the Pels both Denver and Por are highly likely to not get the 8th spot in the playoffs. I wonder if this changes Olsheys possible further deadline moves?

Can we work out a deal to trade Damian and CJ to NO for nothing, for the rest of the season, so long as they trade them back to us for nothing next year?

That way NO can knock GS out of the first round!

 

[blue9]

Not sure how to post a tweets.

Blazer Gang‏ @Blazer_Gang
Per @daldridgetnt "POR is in play for whoever they want with those 3 first round picks." "Paul Milsap is in the mix of those discussions.

LOL! The first part of that tweet doesn't match the second part. Paul Milsap!?! Fuck that! To me, "whoever they want" means Butler or George, not fucking Paul Milsap. GTFO daldridgetnt!

 

[Natebishop3]

God I hope we don't pull a Herschel Walker. Trade three picks for some old man like Millsap and then ATL turns those picks into three really good players.

We won't. That would be WAY dumber than what SAC just did, and there's no chance that Neil could out-stupid the Kings. Maaaaybe, the CLE pick and salary? But even then I hope not.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Fun fact: Paul George is younger than Jimmy Butler.

With the difficulty Portland has in getting free agents, trading all the picks seems like a mistake.

 

[Schilly]

So I think the trade machine is broken...

-6 wins, really?

Possibly, but not necessarily. I mean, for the right guy with a few years remaining on his deal, I'd trade multiple picks.

I've noticed that nearly every trade linked has both teams losing wins. I don't think the "Hollinger's Analysis" algorithim does anything useful. The tool is mostly just useful as a CBA checker.

You only trade them if you can get Butler or Paul George. You don't just trade them for a no-body. I would still prefer to keep 1 of the 3 picks though.

 

[PDXFonz]

Pelicans looking to trade Portland's own Terrance Jones.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Not that this means anything...

I'd take him, as long as we aren't giving up picks.

 

[stampedehero]

Butler first If not...Paul If neither, then Sly

What about strait up for Crabbe if they would do it? Jones is a good player and could fit nicely. Biggest problem is they may not want to take on any salary (even though they are low) if they plan on maxing Oogie Boogie.

 

[Trackjack]

Jones is making only 1.5 million and we already know how much Crabbe makes so I don't think that works. Maybe jones for Napier straight up.

That probably won't work. I bet Washington trades a pick for him. They need bench help desperately.
