F-you Jayman!  :P   ;)

you really know how to kick a man when his team is down! (shower)  :P  :'(  :-X   ;)

After spending an hour on the ESPN trade machine, I've hit the jackpot :D

Detroit give: Caldwell-Pope + Marcus Morris + Brandon Jennings + Detroit 2016 first round pick
Cleveland Cavaliers give: Kevin Love

Reason: Cleveland are paying 20 million for a third option who is border-line redundant in a potential finals matchup with the Warriors. Wherever he is on the court, Golden State attack him. Especially when they go to the Curry/Klay/Iggy/Barnes/Draymond lineup, he can't guard any of them. You flip him, you get KCP who has shown he can be one of the best Curry defenders in the league, Marcus Morris is a solid wing, and Jennings can be an upgrade at backup PG for some offense off the bench. The pick balances out the fact that Love is a max player. Detroit get Love to pair with Drummond - basically a perfect frontcourt, without wrecking the core of their team.

Makes both sides better in the short term and long term... Call it in!

Let me know if you want me to try and come up with a move for your team as the deadline approaches ;) it's a really cool little tool this, even though nothing I come up with will end up happening :P

it will allow anything though

I just did

Varejo to Sixers for Embiid Okafor and Ish Smith

Love to Wolves for Wiggins + Towns + Rubio


Irving Wiggins James Okafor Towns

with I.Smith Embiid Thompson Mozgof Rubio J.R.Smith aint too bad

I was just about to reply and say, looks great Jayman!
But Cavs would never do it despite the common sense financials and the GSW match-up

Glad you asked! The Kings are not an easy one though, as they traded away picks to offload their bad contracts to Philly.

Kings give: Kosta Koufus + Ben Mclemore + 2020 first round pick top 8 protected + Spurs 2016 second round pick
New Orleans give: Tyreke Evans
NO - Tyreke is not a great defender and has been at the Kings before.  He needs the ball in his hands to be effective

Kings give: Rudy Gay + Marco Bellinelli
Memphis give: Courtney Lee + Tony Allen + Vince Carter
I don't mind this one, Lee adds depth and Allen adds defense.  I assume VC is just to make the salary's match

Atlanta give: Thabo Sefalosha
Kings give: Ben Mclemore
I also dont mind this one - straight swap

Phoenix give: PJ Tucker + Markieff Morris
Kings give: Ben Mclemore + Marco Bellinelli + Caron Butler + 2016 Spurs second round pick + 2018 Portland second round pick
NO NO NO - We give up way too much to get a guy who is unproven in the NBA and a head case in Morris.

Think they are all reasonable deals that both sides would consider :) what do you think?

ha, ha! as a Phoenix fan I was just about to say that it looked good!  ;)

but we're so shower right now, anything would be better than doing nothing ...  :'(   ;)

Wow, the refereeing in this Rockets vs Thunder game is atrocious!

Haven't been watching, can only imagine it's against Thunder  ::)

[Holz]

Warriors 108
Philly 105

That would have been a reasonable upset

Interesting rumour I heard; NYK looking at going after Jeff Teague...

Yeah, Atlanta are looking to unleash Schroeder and NYC has no decent PG's, could work out for both teams. 

Another rumour I've heard is Whiteside to the Lakers before the trade deadline, and possibly Durant then Westbrook in the next 2 years!  :o

[elephants]

Boston ran down by Orlando :o

[plumdog millionaire]

Equal third in the east baby!

[Cookie Monster]

Huge play for the OKC win, Westbrook ties it, Ibaka with a huge block and then KD comes up clutch with a deep 3 to win!

[Jay]

Man, Minnesota are going to be so good when they have a proper coach. Karl Towns is a transcendent player, pair him with Wiggins and wow.

[Mat0369]

Speaking of Wiggins

Im crossing my fingers for simmons
Imagine that combo for 10 years

[Mat0369]

That would just say rigged to me. There is no way the Wolves deserve a top 2 pick let alone the number 1. The league already bailed out the Cavs, they won't be doing the same for Minnesota.
