What a weird trade deadline.

In non-trade news, but something I found humorous...

Jaxson Hayes has been suspended for pushing the Wizards mascot during pre-game routines

Great news, we get to see him again when we face the Bulls on 3/30. The beatings shall continue until morale improves.

That colin sexton kunt must be a real a- hole if utah and charlotte both got rid of him - because he can play and is a pita for opponents ...

 

[Correct Crusader]

I reallly reallllly love what the Wizards and Charlotte have done this year.

AD's career is in the toilet.. Wizards will be dumb enough to give him that huge extension just watch..

 

[poopbox]

sochan trade literally going to be the last trade of the deadline

First look at Anthony Davis as a Wizard

View attachment 708

I'd retire at the end of the season if I were him. He is always hurt and now on this trash team. But he is NOT done stealing money from the league..

Nobody is trading for his bum ass he's gonna get bought out

Why would he get bought out. He doesn't have a contract after this year

Could be a damn good deal for Dallas depending on those picks.
or just saw the picks, and damn, that's a brutal return for AD (Luka) hahahaha. Capspace, Max Christie, and a handful of low value picks.
I'd give them a 2nd for Bagley though

 

[brazil]

in the meantime.. spurs

 

[RC_Drunkford]

I'm not a James Harden fan, but the Clips are playing the best ball in the league. They keep this up and they'll be in 4th or 5th place by the postseason. Does it make sense to trade him? Cleveland is a shitshow after last year and I didn't think it was clear who was to blame for it.

Harden is 36, Garland is 26. If you don't own your picks, getting younger while trading players on a similar level makes total sense. Cleveland is actually the dumb team here. A lot depends on Garland's health though. He's been out for 2 seasons now with toe injuries.

Now that Conley has been traded again, he can resign with MIN if he gets bought out. Sneaky way around the Brent Barry rule.

 

[Hyrup]

Why would he get bought out. He doesn't have a contract after this year

As a favor to try and let him get his footing somewhere else ASAP. Not saying I agree with it, just what the thought process probably is.

 

[Arguendo]

I actually really like this for the Wizards.
They'll get another top pick and all their young players will have Trae/AD to play with and then when it's time for extensions, they'll just dump the veterans.


Jazz was understandable since they don't own their '27 FRP, I guess Wizards doing it means that next year's draft is that bad.

Agree, and lots of AD upside even if he never plays. He a future monster expiring and he gets healthy for a couple months he worth way more than they paid. Plus, him and Trae likely sell a ton of season tickets next yr. For that fanbase, these are monster "We are trying" moves. On paper added a top 2-way player to last years Assist leader for very very very little asset cost. That Thunder 1st is basically worth a mid-2nd bc its salary guarantee, like worth around our Utah 2nd this yr. Got AD + Trae for 1 protected 1st and 4 2nds...that's using their cap space well, lots of upside, little downside.

He had MVP hype the first half of last season, people forget. Same story as Embiid. The NBA changes real fast, and takes no prisoner.

 

[Seventyniner]

The NBA should tweak the schedule for every team to have a 3-4 day break before the trade deadline so teams don't have to hold players out and such.

Now that Conley has been traded again, he can resign with MIN if he gets bought out. Sneaky way around the Brent Barry rule.

What's the rule with someone being traded a second time? How many times can a player get traded? Also, I thought he had to be traded by himself if he was just traded by another team?
