OFFICIAL: Trade Deadline Thread

[Hedda Gambler]

Apparently, the Bobcats are very keen on moving Ben Gordon. If they'd throw in a 1st-round pick with limited protection, I'd entertain this, but it would be better to send Ben Gordon to a 3rd team.

Here's a trade that sends Gordon to Brooklyn, moves Al to Charlotte, and gives the Jazz Humphries along with a Charlotte 1st-rd pick.

Can they even trade a first rounder before they have given Chicago the pick that they owe them?

Notwithstanding that Chicago own their pick*, this is pretty damn good.

*How awesome is Chicago putting and keeping everything together? Without Rose they're still very competitive, and even after losing Brewer, Korver, and Asik. On top of that, I thought they outclassed everyone in the 2011 draft with Butler and Mirotic.

We could trade back one of our first rounders, I think. We could also swap a pick this year for one of theirs next year.

Rockets are out.

Daryl Morey says not to expect any big moves from Houston at the trade deadline this year. cbsprt.co/XPNyjN We're skeptical.

They're definitely not taking on any salary. Dwight Howard sweepstakes.

That's good, because the Jazz have no appreciable salary to send them outside of Marvin. That actually makes the Jazz an ideal partner.

Look how stupid this guy is. Why the hell would we want to ship Millsap for Bargnani?

I could actually see this happening.... Bargs contract comes up when we need money for favors and Hayward...

It would pretty much guarantee we don't sign Al in the offseason and have a big rotation of Bargs, favors and Kanter!!

Bargs would also keep the paint open for favors and Kanter ala Okur!!

Also Bargs will be a nice expiring contract to shop in two years for a cap strapped team!!

In a weird way this makes sense. Is something wrong with me?

It does make sense, but there's still something wrong with you. Please start pscychiatric care immediately before you harm someone.

That was meant to be a rhetorical question. Thanks for the response though.

I don't see why on earth we would want Bargnani. He doesn't solve anything. There are better trades than this to be made that make both economical, and personnel sense, I'm sure of it.
