2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

I think that this recent Clippers 3 game win streak along with the slides by Memphis, NOLA, Sacramento and the Lakers has firmed up Clippers' resolve to fight for the playoffs.

I think the Tobias Harris dream is officially over. Getting him in free agency ain't gonna happen. Our only chance was a trade or a bad Clipper experience this year.

Jerry West and Steve Ballmer have bigger goals than making the playoffs this year. They are focused on building a championship team. If they find a trade they they believe puts them in a better position to build a champion at the risk of possibly missing the playoffs this year, I think they do that trade. They know they aren't winning anything this year.

I agree that they have bigger goals than making the playoffs this year, but making the playoffs over their building rival Lakers could be a big part of a sales pitch this summer.

I could see them maybe trading Gallinari because of his contract, but I just don't see them trading Tobias. The only chance we had was if the Clippers had kept losing instead of going on this recent 3 game winning streak. If they were a couple games behind the Lakers when LeBron came back, maybe they consider a trade offer for Tobias at the deadline. Instead, they are two games ahead of the Lakers which means they will be even at worst at the deadline.
 
My prediction was that AD would be traded by the deadline. So you're saying there's a chance.....

 
Trading AD to the celtics actually makes sense in both sides. Celtics can offer the most out of anyone honestly. I'd love to see Gordon in a pelicans uniform

Boston can't trade for AD because they already traded for Kyrie (Rose Rule). So unless Boston uses Kyrie to get AD, Boston is out until the summer.

AD wants LA. NOLA and the Lakers just need to make this happen ASAP so NOLA can do more moves prior to the deadline. If I'm NOLA, I demand a package of Kuzma, Lonzo, Ingram, KCP and LA's 2019 1st.
