Tobias Harris for Brandon Jennings and Ersan Illyasova.

Also reported by Mike Scotto, who was first (I believe) to report Bosh news.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

Good deal for Detroit if true.  I don't see the point for Orlando.  Jennings has never been an efficient offensive player so he doesn't help them there, and I don't think much of him defensively, either.

Ilyasova's a better shooter than Harris, but he plays the same position as Gordon.

I guess it saves them money?

I think when it comes to scoring bench guards, you give a little more leeway for inefficiency as long as they can get you some buckets.  Not sure how Ilyasova fits either, though I guess they're following the same logic that got Channing Frye there.  Think this is a win for Detroit and might solidify their playoff chances.

Not sure why someone would want Jennings.

Offering 4-5 years of Harris for a 30 game rental of Jennings, and Ersan? Dumbest thing I heard all year lol.

This is awful for Orlando if it's true.

I think it's legit happening. Lots of people are reporting it. Although, Broussard and his "sauces" said it already happened.

Yeah, Magic must hate Harris to be ditching his not crazy deal already.

Called it when the Magic re-signed him in the summer: they were just buying themselves time to shop him.

Orlando is making a big mistake. They have to be able to get more for Harris, and if they can't by the deadline then I think he would have a lot more trade value in the offseason.

Jennings and Ilyasova don't move the needle enough to get into the post season imo.

We really should be able to beat that deal...
Zeller and young/rj, plus lee
Or Sully and young / RJ, plus lee

Add our pick or Dallas if necessary.
It's not an overpay and it beats the Detroit offer.

Where does this trade rank in the all time worst trades off all time?
