2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

How far away is the deadline? 5 hours? Ricky is a good dude it just hasn't worked out on the court. That said, would DL bring him back if he has a huge finals series?
 
For a number of reasons, I think this assessment is off. Not least of all that half the roster can play the 1.
I wouldn't underestimate a strong closing to the year and some feel good playoffs stories, coupled with some advanced stats that justifies running it back.
 
Conley say he will play anywhere... not sure where the eastern rumor came from... that makes me happy at least.
 
I absolutely love this...

Nearly 3 hours away from the NBA's trade deadline and ... the Lakers-Pelicans talks on Anthony Davis are dormant, league sources tell ESPN. No communication, nor an expectation that they'll even speak today. Pelicans seem content to run out the clock.

They must be looking elsewhere. Or punishing LAL for obvious tampering.

Not necessarily the wrong move but definitely risky - if no deal is made and they keep AD then they have to deal with the potential PR nightmare of owning but not playing a Top 5 player in the league for the rest of the season.

I wouldn't be surprised if his agent leaked that. Let's be honest, he's never going to be an All-Star if he comes to the Jazz. In terms of personal accomplishments, he'd be better off going East.
 
Memphis is a **** show... their front office is a mess... there is a lot out there about how dysfunctional that group is right now. Dealing with them is not a ideal.

Wouldn't surprise me if NOLA is talking with the Clips. After their moves, they seem to have a better offer with Miami's pick....
I so hope they are....
 
Shams hasn't tweeted in 13 hours, Tony hasn't said anything meaningful since yesterday, WTF IS GOING ON?! I need INFO from the sources.
