CJ McCollum@CJMcCollum Bruh you’re a legend @andre. My guy sat half the season. Spent time with his family. Promoted his book. Sharpened up his post retirement plans and cashed out respect bruh.

Can we please trade CJ already?! An undersized ISO ball, one dimensional player, no defense, doesn’t pass, and approaching 30 years old... and Neil gives him 30+ mil a year for the next 4 seasons. I already didn’t like him on the court and quotes like this make me not so big a fan off the court. All he cares about is that he got paid. Hasn’t improved in 5 years. Great use of the salary cap Neil... go from one mess in summer of 2016 to another.
 
It must be pretty tiring to be the fan who has nothing else going in their lives, that they have to create a screen name to ram home their point, on a message board, instead of dealing with things like an adult.

Those were real needle-movers.

Well, no one thought trading for Nurk would be a needle mover. Granted, if he's recovering from injuries the only needles that get moved are the ones from junkies.

It must be tiring to have so little going on in your life that you get so triggered but what fans post in a forum.

No. As New Yorker, I'm hoping. As long as they don't give up Mitchell Robinson. DLo would be Knicks best player in a long time.

Minnesota really wants D Lo. They got a 1st round pick in the recent trade maybe for that reason.

Blazers dumping Skal, Gabriel, and Swanigan for cash to reduce tax bill. Will fill roster with minimum signings. Joakim Noah, Jamal Crawford, and JR Smith lol?

You do realize that trading those three players for cash and then signing 3 new players basically offsets most of the savings you just traded them away for right? Plus that doesn't even get them out of the tax so what's the point?
 
So, why do teams wait until the last few hours before the deadline to make deals? The Baze/Ariza deal is a classic example of a trade that would have helped the team a lot more if it had come earlier. Seems like a lot of silly gamesmanship.

And yes, I know the deal was made before Feb 6th. It was still weeks too late for the Blazers.

Price gouging is my guess. More likely to over compensate earlier in the season than at the deadline.

Deadlines almost always produce results. Teams are waiting for the best possible deals.
 
Not sure about that Iguodala move from Miami’s perspective. Winslow was basically their only trade piece left and they use him to acquire old Iguodala who hasn’t played basketball in 8 months. Then again Winslow’s value is probably not that high and having expiring Iguodala might come useful next season.

They have to include more players and teams though because that deal doesn’t work financially on its own. Apparently Waiters and Johnson could be involved, some heading to OKC for Gallinari along with pick. That will mean there will have to be further moves to Memphis or elsewhere as OKC will not take both JJ and Waiters... lots of details to finalize before they announce the move I guess.
