Event The OFFICIAL Trade Deadline thread

[maxiep]

God Minnesota is bad. What a terrible trade. Just terrible. This is so Garnett can retire a TWolf?

It puts asses in the seats. I think it's an understandable business move by Minny.

Reggie Jackson to the Pistons??!

 

[RR7]

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Hope the Jackson to Detroit was a dump and Detroit didn't give OKC anything.

Monroe maybe?

Plus there's talk of KG moving up to the ownership circle next year. Could be a good transition. Not like Young was helping them much anyway.

 

[craigehlo]

Suns just fell out of playoff contention...

 

[Natebishop3]

I bet they traded for Monroe.

 

[craigehlo]

Monroe scares me as a low post player. Kanter and B Lopez, not so much.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

I bet they traded for Monroe.

That's my fear. Monroe wasn't going back to Detroit next year. He'll be an unrestricted FA. Detroit sucks. They might as well turn something they'll lose for nothing into a starting PG.

How does that work.... Jackson AND Jennings? There will be blood!

I guess we have to hope Anthony Davis keeps the Okies out of the playoffs now.

Cap space for next year. Garnett is expiring; Young had another year left.

He has a no trade clause, though. Would he waive it to go there and come off the bench?

Plus OKC can't sign him for over MLE this summer. As good as gone. A TRUE rental.

 

[craigehlo]

3-team deal?

 

[Rastapopoulos]

 

[Boise Blazer]

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Well crap! I actually like this deal for OKC better than them getting the "other" Lopez. Damn!

 

[Natebishop3]

Huh?.....

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Wow, OKC is certainly being interesting.

 

[Strenuus]

Ugh. Well, they'll get a little worse defensively.

 

[RR7]

Jennings out for the year

 

[RR7]

 

[maxiep]

Jackson to DET, Kanter to OKC, Perkins to UTA, there have to be draft picks and other pieces.

 

[Natebishop3]

Jennings out for the year

But I'm thinking long term... or is Jennings a free agent?
