2014 NBA Trade Deadline Rumors/Discussion Thread

[Malta]

The Knicks are scouring the Earth for a PG

Should have just kept Lin.

How is that a good deal for the Knicks?

Collison is locked into a really affordable deal, makes less than 2 million per season and he posted solid numbers while Paul was out, 13/6 on 47% FG.

It's worth a shot, they don't have to give up much to get him and Hardaway has made Shumpert expendable.

think this is more about getting rid of the worst player in the league aka prince...he gives nothing to that team

crazy how Tayshaun has fell off a cliff and Dumars giving him that contract...James Johnson was such an instant upgrade too bad Pondexter got hurt. He should have been starting

12:17pm: The Knicks are most interested in the Felton-for-Bullock part of the exchange, according to Chad Ford of ESPN.com, who believes the Clippers would prefer to substitute Matt Barnes for Bullock, and would also want Beno Udrih rather than Felton.

11:35am: The Knicks and Clippers are in talks on a deal that would send Darren Collison to New York for Iman Shumpert and Raymond Felton, reports Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports. A deal isn’t close and the proposal is fluid, but the Clippers are interested in Shumpert, Wojnarowski writes. Clippers coach/executive Doc Rivers has expressed affection for Collison on several occasions this season, notes Sean Deveney of The Sporting News (Twitter link), so perhaps his inclusion could become a stumbling block. Reggie Bullock is also a part of the talks, according to Frank Isola of the New York Daily News (on Twitter).

12:26pm: A source involved in the talks tells Berger that the proposal is “dead,” though others are holding out hope for revival. Some members of the Memphis camp suspect the Timberwolves are using these discussions to further their chances for a different deal, according to Amick (Twitter links).

12:13pm: The Grizzlies are “very unlikely” to yield on Allen, tweets Sam Amick of USA Today.

11:12am: The Wolves are eager to swap Barea, but they’re somewhat reluctant to move Budinger, Wolfson adds (on Twitter).

WEDNESDAY, 12:29pm: The pursuit of Neal is the only active discussion the Bobcats are engaged in, with talks for Evan Turner having flamed out early, tweets Ken Berger of CBSSports.com.

12:32pm: The teams are indeed discussing draft picks, and they’re haggling over that issue at current, according to TNT’s David Aldridge (Twitter link).

Collison has a better contract (from the Knicks' POV) but I don't think he's much better than Felton.

I believe they should dangle ed Davis to some sucker to get their sf and not entertain the thought of trading the grindfather.. Tony is ment to retire a grizzly.

The Russian money long, it'll end up costing them something like $17 million in luxury for him

WEDNESDAY, 12:43pm: The Nets have decided they’d like to go ahead and take Hill if the Lakers are willing to send him their way, but L.A. is talking to multiple teams about the power forward, reports Marc Stein of ESPN.com (Twitter links).

I hate that dumbtoni didn't use him to potential but happy for him finally getting away and can play reach full potential

Jordan hill had to be the most frustrating big man I seen in a rocket uniform since I been a fan. Only Eddie griffin(rip) comes close.


Dude is so good some night and then a bust on others. The lakers got him to be a lot more consistent but he still isn't consistent every night. Hopefully playing with my will further his progress.

Collison isn't worth giving up Shump even if you're getting rid of Felton. Collison is a career backup who lost his starting job last year to Mike James...Mike James

That is a panic move just to make a move.

That Russian don't give any fukks.

 

[phillycavsfan]

I think this Jordan Hill trade might solidify Billy King as the worst GM of all time. The Nets already have KG, Mirza, Plumlee, and Blatche; where the fukk will the minutes be for Jordan Hill and what does he bring to the table that the Nets don't already have?

Nets bout to give up another pick
