I am very surprised that both Tyreke and Bellineli didnt get traded after their teams held them out to be traded.

To a lesser degree I am surprised Clips didnt trade DeAndre.

It's insane and ****** that Memphis held onto Tyreke. I'm sure they could've gotten a 2nd rounder for him. Holding out for a 1st for a guy without Bird Rights is just nuts.

I agree. The Tyreke situation is mindblowing really. They could have at least gotten a couple 2nd rounders for him. I'm just glad he didn't play last night....

Jordan will be interesting. I could see him picking up his option then getting traded to the Rockets for Ryan Anderson and a first rounder or something like that. I'm just very glad the Cavs didn't trade for Jordan. I appreciate LeBron and think he's going to stay in Cleveland until he retires. Jordan would have made him leave.

Trade market was not strong at all.

Nobody wants to trade a 1st. I'm still shocked that NO did. That was an awful trade. Credit to DL for not giving up our 1st for that.

Yeah, I guess Boston offered 2 2nd round picks for him. I am not sure why they wouldnt do that.

I was thinking the same thing. Also a little surprised that DeMarre Carroll wasn’t traded. Wonder if the Jazz will move Burks in the offseason.
 
Let's play a game of "who has fallen the furthest":

IT - traded twice in less than a season and is destined to come off the bench behind a terrible rookie
Rose - signed to the minimum then dumped to a team where he is destined to get bought out
Wade - signed to a minimum deal to be with his buddy to win a title then traded for a 2nd rounder

Boston got greedy and it might cost them. They have 5 or 6 first rounders this summer and next. Will be interesting to see if Cleveland's willingness to trade their 1st for Clarkson impacts a Boston/Cleveland series because of Boston's unwillingness to trade their 1st for Tyreke.
