Trade deadline discussion

[Handlogten's Heros]

I'm all in on PJ Washington right now. Someone is going to get a steal with him.

He has another year left on his deal... why do they have to move him?

They don't and they shouldn't, but he's been mentioned so much I think he will be on the move. Josh Hart situation where it doesn't make sense for them to trade, but it really feels like he's being traded.

Josh Jackson traded on his birthday

brutal

Why? He gets to get out of Detroit.

Boston about to do a bigger deal I think

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Thad and Toronto is a perfect fit... they just gonna play all the 6'7 - 6'9 guys in the league that run around and create steals deflections and general chaos.

Add some flares and other incendiaries and I could see it really working.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Sacramento needs to waive two players... I'd like to give Woodard a chance if he gets waived. Wonder if he'd take our open two-way.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

I'm guessing Charlotte wants Poeltl.

Why? They just got out of the tax... they can sign one guy and stay under it. I think they are done basically.

I'm starting to think that we are going to stand pat at this point and ride this out.

You're right. Doesn't mean they do another trade. However, they traded away $4+ when they only needed to trade away $2+. I'm pretty sure they could have done this trade while keeping either Dozier or Bol Bol and avoided the cap.

Wow, the Raptors gave up a FRP along with Dragic for Thad Young?

They need to fill in the roster spot and both guys were slightly more than the minimum. They likely add a buyout guy or a guy who gets waived. Both guys they traded are out for the year.

There will be a handful of interesting waived players in all this 3 for 1 ****.

Yeah. Crazy. It's lottery protected, but still.

Kind of... they give their first and get the Detroit second... its similar to what Rockets got for PJ Tucker last year... they slid back 10 spots really.

I guess they traded that extra guy just in case Jaylen gets that $1.3 million bonus if he somehow makes the All Star Game.

But I'm not 100% sure Boston is done. They have wiggle room now they didn't have before.

You're probably right though

E'Twaun Moore was waived?
