The phone call that saved the Lakers

NBA insider here. The Los Angeles Clippers have agreed to a deal with the New York Knicks. Jamal Crawford, Austin Rivers, and the 2021 and 2013 1st round picks (not lottery protected, top 3 protected). Donald Sterling has also been spotted on the Santa Monica pier screaming the n-word along with his best friend Michael Richards. A couple of busty blondes are in tow - they seem to be more interested in the man who played Kramer. Again, Melo to the Clippers, and Sterling is screaming the n word on the beach. Stay tuned for more info.

PG and butler wont get traded in the deadline.

Instead Lakers will get them on draft day.

PG Ball
SG Butler
SF Paul George
PF Larry Nance Jr
C Ivica Zubac

Team would be Comfy as fuck.

If the Celtics aren't gonna go-all in and get Butler or George, they need to go opposite and start selling. Horford is 31, Thomas is 28, Bradley and Crowder are 26. If the Celtics wait for the Brooklyn picks and Brown to mature, thats 5 years down the line and none of those players will still be around. I have this feeling they will end up like the 2010s Bulls and just win 50 games for 8 years in a row without ever being a real title contender because they never focused all their assets into one time.

>>74344689
But why not just trade Ivica Zubac for Joel Embiid?

Minnesota's Ricky Rubio remains a significant target for the Knicks today, league sources tell @TheVertical.

>>74346504
both are dinosaurs

not in the sense of them being super old but in the sense both of them fit in a style of ball that the NBA doesn't really use all that much.

Melo doesn't play much swing D but demands to be at the 3, again what 80% of the league is looking for at SF is more than point chucking Iso ball coming from the small bigman. I'd imagine most of his troubles being traded though are that dumb fucking clause and the Knicks are probably asking wayyyy too much for a 32 yo with a monster contract

D Rose, well, where to even start:
only shoots midrange
slow
stingy with the ball
And the biggest crime of all, $18 goddamned million dollars for him

I don't doubt in the offseason someone is about to overpay for these assholes, though. Just the league has passed them by and don't expect any team who gets either to do much.

>>74347244
>get Hayward

Chowdah is trash and Booker is a top 15 player in the league. Still won't make em beat the Cavs but it's still better than the overrated Purgatory they're in. They'll at least be the clear-cut 2nd best team in the East. The pick has 0 guarantee of working, but at least if it somehow turns out to be a stud, then they at least can possibly be competitive in 3-4 years when LeBron is done and the Warriors are leaving their primes. Only that'll be when a fuck ton of other teams' cores and young talents will be reaching their primes. So they should just go all in and get Butler or George. They already missed out on Cousins and Durant and IT4 isn't getting any younger.

The pressure is at an all time high on the celshits. Only 4 hours left to make a move jajajajaja

>>74347244
Exactly this. It's fun to see them win, but they aren't contending this year. Boogie or Drummond could have given them a chance, PG maybe, I don't see Butler being that big of a help. If we get Hayward or Griffin this offseason, we contend, but it would be kinda fun to see one of those two go to NO and they can make some noise

>>74347359

is it safe to say okafor was a bust?

>Sources: Boston, Indy had preliminary talk on Paul George, but there won't be real dialogue until/unless C's introduce Nets pick into deal.
Is Ainge seriously retarded enough to think that other GMs would be willing to trade top 20 players for Crowder + a late 1st round pick?

Crowder
Brown

Randle
Ingram

>>74347558
No. You're assuming the Celtics initiated those "talks". You're also assuming the source is correct, and sources that contradict it are false.

Hopefully they get rid of Singler and Morrow for this deal, possibly throw in a second round draft pick.

Is Noel any good? I haven't watched a sixers game in a while.

>>74347665

first round dallas pick might end up being good

If the Sixers trade Noel and Okafor, don't they only have one healthy center?

>>74347674
that dallas pick tho

>>74347619
Fuck is wrong with Morrow? Two seasons ago he had the sixth highest 3pg% at .4338. Now okcfags can't wait to give him away. Did he get injured, or does he only need a Chip Englelland caliber psychologist?

>>74347666
I've already accepted this. in the league though might be a stretch, in like 4 years he has to start declining

Philly likely re-routing Andrew Bogut, just acquired from Dallas w/Justin Anderson & pick for Nerlens Noel. Boston possibility, per source.

Guess Boston is out on Bogut then, sad that they could have gotten Noel for so little

If this Dallas deal was for Okafor, i would be ecstatic.

I liked Noel. :(

Dallas, you're getting a really underrated player.

way to blow it filthy delphia, you had 3 potential all star centers, now you only have 1 and a washed up aussie. someone get ainge on the phone.

>>74347766
Might as well get both. We're getting Deron or Beverly too. Shit is gonna be insane come June

There goes that Sixers youth movement.

>>74347675
Very good defender, and will rack up a good amount of blocks and steals each game. A little bit below average rebounder as a center.

Before this year he was basically Deandre Jordan lite on offense, but his offensive game improved a ton this year. Now has an ok midrange game and his FT% went from 59% to 68%.

He's also still only 22. I think he has a Marcus Camby level ceiling.

>>74347750
doesn't leGM still need a playmaker

process meme trying to commit suicide

>>74346279
AD is taller. AD was listed 6'10 in draft combine.

He has grown taller since.

Noel would've been a good fit on the Cs

>>74347793
He's getting Beverly and/or Deron so it's all good. Scrub bench players will be traded and/or waived, so no worries.

>>74347790
anderson and a first round pick aren't youth?

Hinkie's process died with him, that was pretty clear because the Colangelo's haven't made the greatest moves

>>74347793
He does but he is deliberately not getting once so because he know he will lose and wants to have an excuse again.

Justin Anderson studies dictionaries for fun and has incredible word knowledge. He once played the word Zyzzevas in a scrabble game. Nobody challenged him.

>>74347895
Woj goes live for the last hour but yeah they shoulda made it two or three (although he's probably busy as shit right now

>>74347904
Celtics aren't gonna make any moves.

Warrior fan here - why aren't we trading anyone?

>>74347867
Mid-range shooting...
Nerlens Noel: 12-for-30 (40%)
Justin Anderson: 2-for-24 (8%)

I would've liked less protections on that pick but I'm fine with them trading Noel since I believe they wouldn't match the offer sheet he would get from Brooklyn/Dallas in the offseason.

Just look at the money Biyombo and Zeller got last year. Do you really want to pay a backup center that much? I'd rather get SOMETHING for him then let him walk for nothing.

It also makes me happy that it pisses off the reddit-tier online circlejerk fanbase the Sixers have developed these past few years. Seriously some of the most annoying and abrasive people I've ever interacted with in this city.

when are the celtics going to trade all those assets for a super star? iirc, that on celtics anon was shitposting all season, where is he now? with that stupid celtics pepe. Was bogut the endgame this whole time?

who are the cavs trading for beverly?

>>74347922
They are performing at a level where trades can do more damage than good, if it's not broken don't fix it.

What the fuck are Shitsers doing? Carlisle is gonna turn Noel into a god-tier 5. Honestly, Donald should nuke that city.

Love the Mavs getting Nerlens. Dude is so underrated.

Prob with Nerlens is that him and Embiid don't work at all together, and Nerlens is too good to be a backup.

>>74347994

Why are people acting like first round picks aren't good anymore?

Are people forgetting that people like michael jordan and lebron james were drafted in the first round? In fact almost every good player in the league has come from the draft.

Must be why the Raps are so quiet now, everyone wants their other first round pick (gave the other worse one for ibaka) and Ujiri probably isnt keen on letting it go

>>74347979

That doesn't mean they haven't tried it in practice. From everything I've read Nerlens, Embiid and Okafor all played like shit together, any combo. And Embiid is the keeper.

It's why they literally started anyone at 4 other than one of the other bigs.
