OT: The trade deadline watch thread. 02/06/25

[Carolinacacti]

I don't think the Suns are that bad . Problem is every other team is better. Is Nuck going to play if still on team?

Just In: The Los Angeles Lakers are trading Dalton Knecht, Cam Reddish, a 2031 unprotected first-round pick and a 2030 pick swap to the Charlotte Hornets for center Mark Williams, sources tell ESPN.

Dallas allowed LA to get a good center by not getting enough for Luka. They absolutely should have gotten Knecht and their 2031 first.

Energy drinks and hash browns.. we are getting down to the wire here folks

Flex is saying Riley did everything in his power to keep jimmy from getting his way, and that he had a better offer than what he accepted from GS.

Flex is saying him saying no to GS was just because he was trying to force his way here but Riley was not having it.

The morning show called out Flex this morning for being full of crap....again.

 

[GatorAZ]

Flex takes advantage of low IQ Suns fans.

 

[HammerCards]

If JJ doesn’t pull the trigger today he needs to be gone tomorrow. I have a feeling we are doing the same song and dance. JJ loves to put his players in trade rumors then do nothing.

KD trade value ain’t gonna go up in the off-season

Don't blame the puppet.

According to the local guys that's not how it went down and KD is fine. Gambo reported the Suns did not shop KD. He said they were given an offer they couldn't just ignore from GS so they went to him to ask him if he was interested. KD said no and it was over at that moment. Teams should ALWAYS take calls even if they are not shopping their players.

Also we dodged a bullet with Bulter. They also said that Butler's expressed interest in still coming here even if Durant was traded. That means it was never about playing with KD. It was all about the money for Butler.

 

[ProdigalSun]

at least we still have Ryan Dunn...for now

A lot of the sports media has been laying it on pretty thick, acting like they are saying something without saying something.

And regurgitating the same old rumors over and over again.

 

[BirdGangThing]

if nothing happens today - that's going to be rough - but it's of our own doing - you don't sit a center for 2 months and then shop him - you don't wait till the local reporter drops the they haven't spoken in months bombshell

nah - soon as bud figured he was done with nurk we shoulda kept starting him - built up his worth and targeted teams that might have (past tense) thought about acquiring the bosnian beast but anyway

im good with beal and kd staying - partly because i have to be but there's still a few hours left and we do have a couple other trade pieces - but i don't think bud wants to part with greyson or oneale

so wtf - who knows - at least ish-bia didn't give up kd for peanuts after trading the farm to get him - at least beal is accepting the bench role EVEN WHEN KD WAS OUT?!?! that blew my mind but i digress

at least book was heartbroken after the second portland loss - he wanted to but he didn't give af about the scoring title - book cares but dude needs to start living for the moment again

we aren't drafting - so the play in has to be the only reasonable goal as stands - spoilers if you will - for whoever has our draft pick(s) - nothing to lose style basketball because hey - we got nothing to lose

That means they are bad - the term is relative.

 

[Sparky16]

Book it - Suns miss playoffs then their pick wins the lottery and is given away. $arver sucked, Jerry Jones Jr does not look any better. This team is crap until KD & Career Loser Beal's contracts expire. They are both stat padders who don't jive with a culture of winning. This team was fun to watch not to long ago, the only move that needed to be done was shipping the POS Ayton out, but no. Ishbia and his shiny new toy got abused in a trade with one of the worst orgs in the NBA

Raptors trading Davion Mitchell to Heat for P.J. Tucker

The Raptors appear to be getting involved in the multi-team Jimmy Butler blockbuster after all.

I'm convinced that the only reason P.J. Tucker is still in the league is that GMs like the idea of trading him.

It's not the best, for sure.

In regard to the Suns, it doesn't help they don't put out a lot of information in regard to the thinking of the team other than public relations.

Flex is a lying imbecile.

That deal Miami got is worlds better than the absolute most we could’ve offered, Bradley Beal, and some garbage late draft picks.

Oh you think JJ just got bad at his job?

Per ESPN sources, the Suns are trading Jusuf Nurkic and a 2026 first-round pick to the Charlotte Hornets for Cody Martin, Vasilije Micic and a 2026 second-round pick.

Wow.

Who the F cares if KD shot it down he doesn’t have a no trade clause. God I hate this damn team right now more than I ever did with Sarver. With Sarver you knew the score. You knew what was up, but honestly right now we are being ran worse than ever
