In light of major NBA movement recently, a few teams that are scheduled to travel on Feb. 6 of the trade deadline have adjusted itineraries after realizing the team would be in the air when the deadline passed. This is to prevent a potential awkward flight.

Using parachutes would be a bit awkward.

With Caleb Martin traded to the Mavericks for Quentin Grimes and a second-round pick, the retool is on for the Sixers.Rival teams continue to believe Guerschon Yabusele could moved to a contending team for the right price.

There is currently no traction on a potential Kevin Durant trade between the Suns and Warriors, per @WindhorstESPN.Whether Jimmy Butler ends up in Phoenix or not could have a direct impact on his future.

The Bulls are in active trade discussions with teams on Nikola Vucevic and Lonzo Ball leading up to the deadline.After trading Zach LaVine, Chicago is aiming to make a few more moves as sellers.

Oh please please please please please.

laker gm supposedly knew he could be trading ad weeks ago - meaning he would've already been looking at replacement centers - but i think there's a quality center shortage in the nba rn

Beginning today, the Warriors are able to aggregate Dennis Schröder’s $13 million expiring contract alongside other players in a potential trade.Golden State is aggressively star hunting, and Schröder’s salary could loom large for making another blockbuster deal occur.

No. The speculation is that if we whiff on Butler that we might just blow it up.

 

[Phrazbit]

If we blow it up and don't get any of our picks back it is a useless gesture.

We're going to be utterly horrible for years and turn Houston into a monster.

Stephen Curry is the only untouchable player on the Warriors’ roster ahead of the trade deadline, per @WindhorstESPN.It appears Golden State is ready to swing for the fences to chase another championship with Curry.

This is a great point, and I hope if they're blowing it up that they actually consider sending Book to Houston to get picks and young players back. I HIGHLY doubt this will happen, but it's maybe 3% more likely now that Book's secured the franchise scoring lead.

 

[Hoop Head]

Durant needs to go first. If we trade Booker first then KD will demand a trade, shrinking his value. Devin will likely be a good soldier and wait until the off-season if we are blowing it all the way up. Not like we have our pick so no use in tanking immediately.

I'm not saying keep Booker indefinitely but if there isn't a good trade available, no need to rush into a bad deal.

 

[Phrazbit]

If we trade Durant and it isn’t to Houston we’ve just gotta hope he torpedoes that team as bad as he did us and Brooklyn.

 

[hcsilla]

I highly doubt that the Suns will trade Durant, since Ishbia still thinks that he (Durant) leads the Suns to the championship.

 

[BirdGangThing]

kd talks heating up but it's still golden state far as i can tell

Your thinking on this is always so short term. Best place for him to go is GS and for the picks coming back to be down the road when they’ll be terrible in 3 years.

If it’s to Houston, we have to get a couple of our picks back.

Then it’s time to trade for Booker. There’s no point watching a 25 win Booker team versus a 15 win Booker team with 4 or 5 extra first rounders.

Paul George, or Embid? Can't see how Miami or Golden State would want either
