2014 NBA Trade Deadline Rumors/Discussion Thread

[#1 pick]

Knicks panic trades on the way, they lost tonight and don't play again till after the deadline, a perfect recipe for a deal.

They don't have no pieces. You think they gonna panic and trade Melo?:

They'll probably give up a pick or Hardaway Jr. in whatever trade they do.

10:44pm: Jared Zwerling of Bleacher Report echoes (via Twitter) what Wojnarowski reported earlier, hearing that talks are “heating up” between the two sides, and a deal could happen “soon.”

9:08pm: Sacramento’s discussion with Brooklyn about a move that would see the Kings acquire Terry and Evans in exchange for Thornton have progressed to a “serious stage,” a league source tells Wojnarowski. The Kings are also exploring potential options for Jimmer Fredette, hears Wojnarowski./QUOTE]

THJ isn't that great of a piece. He is getting that push Shump had several years ago. He will more than likely just be a decent role player who plays little to no defense.

Why would the Kings want either Evans or Terry, especially Terry? Unless it's just a deal to get out of Thornton's contract and Evans and Terry are on shorter deals.

Probably just for their contracts to clear cap room for next season. Quincy Acy's game resembles Evans' a lot. Just without the character issues.

Kings gonna just do a deal to do a deal. I can't even get mad because for years we weren't doing shyt move wise outside of the Kmart deal.

Reggie Evans gets boards too, Acy looks like his lil brother too

Pau Gasol: There continues to be a belief that the LA Lakers are going to pull the trigger on a Gasol trade and that the long dormant deal with the Phoenix Suns that would send one of the lower of the four draft picks the Suns hold and injured big man Emeka Okafor to LA will be the deal that gets done. The Lakers continue to ponder if that’s the best move for them or if hanging on to Gasol into the summer for a possible sign-and-trade deal might return more long-term value than a late first round pick that consumes cap space. The Lakers continue to work other angles which include a possible deal with the Brooklyn Nets that would offload big man Jordan Hill to the Nets in exchange for a draft pick and a Disabled Player Exception. It seems that one is directly connected to the other, meaning if the Lakers move Gasol, moving Hill to get under the luxury tax line seems likely. The problem for the Lakers is that Phoenix is talking to other teams about their package with Okafor so if the Lakers wait to the wire they may find their deal for Gasol gone as Phoenix seems intent on using their chips before the clock strikes 3:00pm.

Wouldn't be pretty but they should just cash in on Melo and chalk the season.
