Porzingis to Wizards.

[Muggz]

No updates on that yet. Rumor is Payton and possible draft pick

All we have is 2nd rrd picks correct?

Ugh

 

[Mainstreet]

I'm not sure about the Mavericks trade. I guess they really wanted to trade Porzingis.

[GatorAZ]

Huh?

He did last year, and we have the same forwards.

Craig played because the frontcourt was thin. And Cam Johnson only played 21 mpg in the playoffs which isn’t happening again.

 

[Proximo]

Porzingis to Wizards.

WHOA!

For what? Did they dump Bertans on them?

Edit: Ok, that was a bad move by Dallas.

I kind of like Dinwiddie, but bertans is unplayable for a playoff team.

Suns only gave up cash considerations for Holiday. #winning

 

[Mainstreet]

So the Suns were granted the Diabled Player Exception after all the discussion about it.

The Suns obtained Aaron Holiday for cash.

Like the trade for Craig. Had to move on from Stic after not picking up his option and big men PFs don’t fit terribly well on this team.

Aaron Holiday is also without a doubt better than Payton. Hopefully Payton was a part of that trade.

That'll make him play with a wild hair up his bum.
ie TJ Warren

He will play when we have to play a small ball lineup, and GS will force us to do that.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Nets and Sixers pulled the trigger.

I think it’s A great trade for both teams. Simmons gets to play the Draymond role and gives the Nets a great defender and another shooter.

And I think Harden has been sandbagging and will make for a potent 1-2 punch with Embiid.

And dragic likely back to
Miami. Means bucks, nets, sixers, and heat likely all improved.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Here is the Harden-Simmons trade.

Wow nets made out

 

[GatorAZ]

I would rather force the Warriors to go big…

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

I disagree.

Ben Simmons is not a good deal for anyone. His attitude, and inability to shoot makes his contract outrageous.

As a third banana he’s a freaking stud.

Dragic to mavs is most likely

Weird. I’ve been told over and over again how the Suns first couldn’t and then wouldn’t use a Disabled Player Exception for Dario anyway.

Actually, I recall being mocked multiple times for actually bringing up the idea.

Stupid me to suggest such a thing.

 

[Proximo]

So, I am assuming Payton and Nadar are getting cut. I am happy just not having to watch Payton anymore.

Overall I think these two moves are decent, about what I was expecting.

I think they filled two of our biggest weaknesses.

Was kind of hoping for a Gordon move, but did not expect it. If Shamet could just start shooting 40% from 3 again we will be really really hard to beat.

The thing is, why wasn't it announced.

 

[mjb21aztd]

Porzingis to Wizards.

Ouch kris is like wtf go from gold to last....

See how mavs luka do without him

 

[Proximo]

We tried that in the last 2 games, and they beat us pretty badly when we did. And that was before they had Klay back.

I know people want Ayton to be some kind of post up force, but he just isn't.

 

[Muggz]

And dragic likely back to

Dragic wants to play with the Mavricks?

He doesn't play much anyway. This is trading nothing as far as the Mavs are concerned.

 

[Dback Jon]

Because James Jones didn't think to use it until he read Cheese's posts on here.

He is friends with Luka and Igor.
