so looks like JK and Buddy being traded for Porzingis - does that mean no Giannis - thats sucks!
[Shams] BREAKING: The Golden State Warriors are trading Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield to the Atlanta Hawks for Kristaps Porzingis, sources tell ESPN.
Damn, the Jazz will buy out Lonzo. He's literally the perfect backup PG for this team if Jimmy was healthy. Ugh. My guess is he's now en route to Charlotte.
He's not been good for Cleveland. But a backup who can average 7 rebounds, 7 assists and 2.2 steals per 36 and is only 28 years old? This is the first year of his career he has been negative by EPM.
"[Charania]: The Cleveland Cavaliers have agreed to trade Lonzo Ball and two second-round picks to the Utah Jazz, sources tell ESPN. Ball's agent Rich Paul and the Jazz are expected to discuss his future soon."
"[Charania]:The Los Angeles Clippers, Brooklyn Nets and Toronto Raptors have agreed on a multi-team trade sending Chris Paul to the Raptors and Ochai Agbaji, a 2032 Raptors second-rounder and cash to the Nets, sources tell ESPN."
"[Charania] The Raptors will not require Chris Paul to report to the team and could still discuss trades involving him over the next day. Toronto is now it of the tax. Brooklyn picks up an asset and cash to cover Agbaji's salary. The Clippers clear a roster spot and save $7 million in tax."
2060 breaking BB news - "the animated corpse of Chris Paul will be traded to the suns in a reunion decades in the making. "Iiiiiiiiii, thiiiiiiiinkkkkkk IIIIIIIII CANNNNN stillllll cooomppeettte" whispered the corpse as it attempted to pick skin of this reporter. "
He walks around in State Farm commercials and trees fall on cars a couple of feet from him. Someday, one is gonna hit him. And he has enemies... lots of enemies.
As a DC resident I assure you Wizards ownership is only interested in being good enough to get people in seats, they do not care about competing. And it’s very easy to get people in seats because there’s a massive population of transplants who will come out to watch their home town team play (guilty as charged).
Fwiw they are upgrading Capitol One (after the owner threatened to move the team to Alexandria which would’ve been a nightmare), and there is a strong local fanbase. Just tough to build up team pride when the team doesn’t give you much to be prideful in.
You love the hosts? I don't think they have had good hosts since they got rid of Damon and Ratto a few years back. Willard and Dibs are ok I guess... the less said about Steinmetz and Guru, the better.

Was this on anyone's radar? I am so confused (my usual state these days).
This is quite a downer :(
Lol
Well, looks like they rightfully shot us down. Not a bad pivot. Just sucks since I have no idea how much this guy is going to play
TM3 44 points, 12-17 on threes against the Bucks now. Don't think we'll see any of the folks we might have traded for him do that.
And Steph and JK are listed as Out vs Suns tomorrow.
😞
Cavs @ Clippers tonight.
I don't think the traded players will be available to play for for their new teams Garland is injured anyway.
So when exactly is the deadline again?
not too soon
Noon dubs time tomorrow
There is tons of time left on the clock.
Time for a 2-for-1!
- Fitz
But then Fitz will call the first one a "free" one. Man I hate that.
well, we’re all aware of the Dubs record for “clutch” games …
Dubs time is light years ahead tho'
I'm watching this video of Hayes pushing the mascot and I'm so confused why he did this.

lol, there’s a comment saying one day he’s gonna get jumped and won’t see it coming because he doesn’t know what the guy looks like 😁
That's hilarious
Damn, the Jazz will buy out Lonzo. He's literally the perfect backup PG for this team if Jimmy was healthy. Ugh. My guess is he's now en route to Charlotte.
Thought I saw Lonzo had been having a really bad year
He's not been good for Cleveland. But a backup who can average 7 rebounds, 7 assists and 2.2 steals per 36 and is only 28 years old? This is the first year of his career he has been negative by EPM.
For a min, that's as good as it gets.
Trade Kuminga to Dallas for our full pick + salary and forward that to Bucks for Giannis :)
we don't need our full pick to trade it (and we have the best part (1-20))

[Tomer] Zubac is out tonight due to personal reasons, but it is not traded related
Hmmm....
Zubac plus Chris Dunn for JK works. Dubs would probably have to throw in a pick or two.
Or 4. Clips turned down a pick and a swap for Zu alone earlier this year.
Why would they trade Zubac? As long as they have Kawhi, they're not tanking.
I think it's true personal time (he's having a baby).
That’s got to be hard on his body
It took several years and tons of effort, but the Mavs have finally matched the Kings' achievement of acquiring Marvin Bagley in place of Luka Doncic.
Yowch.

Psst- no reason to think he won’t be alive at that point
ha, I forget "old" guys were born in the 80s! As you may guess I was not.
He walks around in State Farm commercials and trees fall on cars a couple of feet from him. Someday, one is gonna hit him. And he has enemies... lots of enemies.
Everyone Hates Chris
You go out to lunch and the Wizards do .... something.
I get this trade from Dallas' perspective ... get rid of a mistake and move to Cooper Flagg's timeline. Get what assets you can for the rebuild.
But, do the Wiz really think AD/Trae is the start of a rebuild?
What did it cost the Wizards to get AD? The #30 pick in this next draft, a top 20 protected pick in 2030, and salary filler?
Have to wonder if its on the condition Washington gives AD the max on his extension.
More that his salary is an overpay, and he's frequently injured, is what I'm thinking.
Don’t forget those 3 2nd round picks!
that's 60% of GPII (GP1.2?)

Wizards should be relocated
I don't see why they should be relocated (sold maybe) but I bet Baltimore would like to have them back.
Terrible transplant fanbase, horrible owner, bad arena.
Give them back to Baltimore
Fwiw they are upgrading Capitol One (after the owner threatened to move the team to Alexandria which would’ve been a nightmare), and there is a strong local fanbase. Just tough to build up team pride when the team doesn’t give you much to be prideful in.
Eyes on the prize, Dub Nation!

So we need 2029 and 2031 1sts (maybe 2027, but not as important). How do/can we get them?
Who has more than 1 2029 and/or 2031 pick?
(According to Google):
- Spurs, Nets, and OKC have an extra 2031 1st (but so does SAC)
- OKC, Nets and Jazz have and extra 2029 1st
Man, 95.7 callers are really the bottom of the barrel. "We could swap Kuminga right now for Jaden McDaniels but we not doing nothing!"
LOL
95.7 callers are pretty bad year-round but the trade deadline is definitely when the most ridiculous callers and takes surface
Again, love the hosts but gotdang, some of the fans...
You love the hosts? I don't think they have had good hosts since they got rid of Damon and Ratto a few years back. Willard and Dibs are ok I guess... the less said about Steinmetz and Guru, the better.
Willard is awesome
I enjoy W&D when they dont have guests.
I honestly enjoy the show less when Guru *is* there, but that could be just me. (edit)
I'm up early in the day and don't mind the hosts.
