Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
If they can get him without giving up Reggie and having Reggie to flip for something else then they should jump at it

I'm not the biggest fan of brook, but he can help them score in half court sets during the playoffs


Jackson is going to be involved in some way, whether it's a 3 team trade or just the two teams.

The Thunder need scoring in the post and Brook can do that.

The 479
The Heat need a point guard and would welcome Reggie J with open arms but they don't have any real assets i guess. The Wizards could use a backup pg but Reggie would be even more miserable. The Pistons need a point too.

Amar'e should sign with the Clippers. With Griffin out, he'll get some shine and a chance to prove himself before the playoffs.

Lopez with the Thunder would be interesting even with the last trade they pulled off has largely backfired.

Last thing the Clips need, is another big who doesnt play defense

The stoop with dat dope fanny padding

jackson is a tough player to figure out a location because I can't picture teams with cap space wanting to spend 8-10 million on him...

So we're looking at

Thaddeus young, Kevin Martin, Nikoli pekkovic
Goran dragic or Isaiah Thomas
Jason Thompson, Ramon sessions
Brandon bass, marcus thornton, tayshaun prince (I'm not completely ruling out a sullinger trade)
Jose Calderon
Lance Stephenson
Brook Lopez, joe Johnson, deron Williams, Jarrett jack
Terrence Ross
Norris cole
Enes kanter
The entire Denver roster other than nurkic
Taj Gibson

As possible trade pieces, who am I missing?

And you'll still be miserable

Trade martin, pek, and young
why do you care about how I feel?

and for the millionth time, Pek and Martin are not going anywhere. Even if I'd love to see it happen, it's not. Nobody's gonna make any substantive offer for them.

Get rid of Martin so Wiggins can play the 2 :ufdup:
It's just not gonna happen. They're not gonna get what they need for someone like him and as I've said before, he's a necessary evil. There's no spacing on the court whatsoever without him. If they can't get a first for him, there's no use in moving him.

Put it this way. If they move Martin, they're pigeonholed into taking Russell this June and that hurts everyone long term.

I just think your attitude towards that team is ridiculous and even if they won a title you'd find something to complain about

The wolves have had a very good year in terms of building their team for the future aside from the questionable trade for Payne, but they should be able to get some picks when they dump players in the next week

I think there is a market for pek, young, and Martin

can we discuss just how awful and dysfunctional the kings are for a moment? i know it's funny that thompson wants out of the kings because he's pretty much a scrub role player without much value, but he still has a good role there and yet he wants nothing to do with them. thompson is a starter there, he gets minutes there, and he's in a backcourt with demarcus and yet he STILL wants out, which would likely mean a decrease in role and minutes and he doesn't give a fukk because it would mean he's out of that shyt organization. :russ:

Wiggins development at the 2 > Every point you made :birdman:

You have the chance to have an elite, superstar level 2 guard, don't squander it for spacing and keeping Martin around. I think Flip would take one of the bigs and leave Russell on the board.

Nope, Wiggins has the chance to be a superstar at the 2, he's the same height as the Wolves PFs :russ:

only there's absolutely NOTHING for you to base this on since this team hasn't been a playoff team in ELEVEN YEARS! Why must you lose sight of this as of. If something sucks and continues to suck, don't assume greatness is around the corner because you'll look stupid doing it.

and keeping it all the way honest, as I've said all year, the team hasn't learned anything. At all. Luckily for them they'll have 29 games to figure something out, but all they did was show far away they are from anything without their best player.

Is there a market for Young? Yes. Is there a market for Martin? Kinda, but you won't get anything back, so might as well keep him. Is there a market for Pekovic? Absolutely not. Contract too prohibitive and he won't be the same player. He's here til he's medically unable to play.
