Summer 2018 Rumored Moves

IT negotiating a deal with the Magic per Alex Kennedy of Hoops Hype.

My, my....how a year ago we went from fantasizing a starting lineup of IT4, Brown, Hayward, Horford, and Baynes with IT4 demanding a brinks truck to the Celtics 8 points shy of eliminating LBJ in the ECF and going into the Finals with a lineup of Rozier/Brown/Tatum/Horford/Baynes.

Now IT is on his way to Disney World...

Very happy for him. Hope he gets paid well by Orlando (even if it's just a 1 or 2 year deal).

Well Orlando does need a PG.

Too late. He re-signed with OKC.

Lakers looking to trade for Damian Lillard or John Wall, in case Kawhi talks break down, or as a way to pressure SAS.

Lol, Lonzo becoming the 3rd string PG would be beautiful

Magic should deal Isaac or a first for Rozier. IT is a waste of $ right now.

Of we bring in IT to replace him, I'd be all for it

This makes me nervous, because wasn't the team just recently floating out there in the media that Fultz was a Colangelo pick and that not many others in the draft room were on board with it.

And now with the trade for Wilson Chandler, they've got a little more wiggle room to deal guys like Covington, Saric, or Zaire Smith, plus Fultz if they want to throw him in.  I still haven't shut the door on the possibility of that happening.  And it scares the crap out of me.

I didn't think of that. But if Smart is still here IT can rehab and return when 100% so that is a little different in C's getting him. But for Magic they need a starter.

For whatever reason (and I bet it’s valid) Cs don’t seem interested in IT (of course they could be, but no evidence of such).   If the choice were IT v. Rozier, I’m pretty sure I’d take Terry based on his ability not  to be a huge defensive liability.    Given your scenario I guess it would depend on what Danny gets back from Orlando.  Doubt any of this is in the realm of real.

Sixers reporters trying to make Fultz's stock go up

I would give up on Fultz in a heart and so would Philly.

They were willing to trade him on draft night

Markelle Fultz was on the trade block Thursday night as the NBA draft unfolded, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported.

According to the report, the 76ers had "internal conversations" about making a package deal with their No. 10 and 26 picks in order to move into the top five.

However, teams reportedly weren't interested in a player who is relearning to shoot and coming off a severe shoulder injury.

Even though the Sixers put Fultz up for sale, they know if they play their cards right with him he could re-emerge as a top player.

Fultz, the 2017 No. 1 overall pick, is expected to join with Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid as part of the 76ers young core of players. The team is also working hard with Fultz to reteach him how to shoot.

So quit acting like Fultz is untouchable he is not.  They would trade him a heart beat and were going to use him to move up.   He is badly damaged goods.

They'd only give up Fultz if Kawhi makes a commitment to re-sign.  Giving up Fultz on a 1 year rental would be stupid.  While his value is low right now, he's not going to have to do all that much to improve it significantly.
