Trade Deadline Rumors

Im glad we kept Semi.

Isn't he injured?

Would be nice to sign Lamarcus Aldridge (or, if not, Andre Drummond).

I think Lamarcus goes to Miami and Drummond goes to the Knicks.

Maybe we can bring in Greg Monroe?

Once LaMarcus Aldridge completes a buyout with the Spurs, the Miami Heat are expected to emerge as a frontrunner to sign him, sources tell ESPN. Aldridge plans to talk with several teams before finalizing a decision.

it sounds like Miami is going all in for this season.  Even with those moves, I don't think they are making the finals.

So why did we have to wait till the very last second for this trade? Couldn’t Danny do the same Teague plus 2 second rounders a month ago and avoid some of the losses we accumulate

Would Orlando have done it two months ago?

Fournier is a great get.

We did resolve the center spot. Wagner is an appropriate 3rd center, so that's good. I would have preferred moving Thompson, but perhaps Theis would have cost too much next year. We cleared out Teague, again fine so Pritchard can have all the minutes.

However, we once again failed to get a player for the 4 spot. If we can find a way to salvage things and get someone like Otto Porter on a buyout, I will feel better, but for now, I don't understand passing on Gordon. It was a mistake.

It’s possible but will never know. It could have been Theis to a third team- third team sends second rounders to Orlando we send Orlando 17.2 mil TPE.

Me too, not a Thompson fan as he gets swallowed up by big bigs and disappears.

Now we have Kornet!

[footey]

Kings are releasing Jabari Parker per the Athletic

I’d consider signing him.

Love the Fournier addition for two 2nd round picks. Genuine sharpshooter who can score inside the arc too.

Theis is a loss, as he knows our system so well, but Wagner is a pretty solid offensive player. What I like most about this move is that we’re all in on Williams.

I would’ve liked to see more though. Guess we’ll try and hit on some buyouts

Vuce going to Chicago blindsided me, that duo of him and Lavine is awesome.

[gouki88]

Also, the idea of Rondo winning a ring on the Clippers is amazing to me. Back-to-back rings on the two LA franchises would be a crazy way for his career to dwindle

[liam]

Are The Wizards just tanking another year of Beal?

[Roy H.]

Lost in the shuffle:  Brad Wanamaker getting dealt to the Hornets for straight cash, homie.
