every penny counts I guess, and patrick patterson is a decent player
Hawks are expected to move Josh Smith.
Orlando is expected to move JJ Redick.
Phoenix is open to a variety of trades and will be bummed if they don't make at least one move.
OKC is trying to move Kendrick Perkins, who coincidentally didn't play in a loss to the Houston Rockets this evening. Tough contract to move.
Minnesota wants help anyway they can get it.
Brooklyn wants a forward with offense, since they don't currently have one. They could still be looking at Sap, since Josh Smith ain't happening.
Bucks think they can re-sign Josh Smith as a FA if they get him in a trade.
Boston is secretly looking for deals for Rondo, Pierce and KG.
Lakers want to take their chances with Dwight in free agency, but are also entertaining deals. I wonder what Houston is offering as we speak.
Chicago wants a 3-pt. shooter like Redick, although they just had one in Korver.
Teams are squeamish about becoming repeat lux-tax payers.
More drama to come.

I've been gone so let me review......
In two minor deals the Rockets just:
1- Cleared enough cap space to sign Josh Smith & Dwight Howard. (I will buy Rockets gear if it happens)
2- Pushed the NBA owners into fastracking the Sacramento sale.
3- Killed all my hopes and dreams of Thomas Robinson or Jason Thompson for Milsap.
4- Made Jimmer very available.
Meanwhile, the Rockets without half their team just beat OKC.
And the silence on South Temple is deafening.

But we have Al, Millsap, the GS pick, and assets!
And every week, less and less viewers.

Josh Smith? Seriously? Whatever team gives him a MAX deal will regret it. And the more I see of Howard, the less I'm convinced a team will ever win a championship with him on board. The guy is a diva and mentally fragile.

If I go to bed and wake up to see Burks is traded I dunno what I'm going to do. I'm more afraid that they're going to trade Burks than I am that they won't do anything. The way Locke just casually threw him into trade scenarios made me sooo uncomfortable, and I've seen his name pop-up elsewhere. IM TERRIFIED ASLDUAS;ID,ASDASD

If the trade brought back an all-star, sure. I like Burks. He's played well. Look at OKC; they had to give up Green. If trading Burks brings us a starting PG, then do it. But I wouldn't, for example, give up Millsap PLUS Burks for a player like Bledsoe.

So did this already get covered....

Adelman '90 percent' sure Wolves not making a trade.
Dan Woike @DanWoikeSports All indications right know from the #Clippers are that the team will stand pat at the deadline. As always, that can change.

The Maloofs will soon be gone, so they don't care.
Petrie's in the last year of his contract and will either retire or at least not brought back, so he doesn't care that it's a dumb trade.
The new ownership group is planning to blow everything up anyway, so they don't care about why this makes no sense basketball-wise.
