    Memphis basically traded Jackson for garbage and 3 FRP. I wonder what they want for GG Jackson

    Yeah, 3 firsts?

    I don't even know who any of those cats are, but there must be some perceived value in there somewhere. Wowsers.

    wouldn't have guessed jjj would go for less than bane did. edit: guess a lot depends on which three firsts they got from utah.

    who takes the chance on morant? washington already chose trae young. do the pels give up some picks along with murray's contract to pair morant and zion?

    That's the dangers of negotiating with one of these teams with a boatload of picks. You have them and you'll be expected to pony up.

    Might make sense for Miami if they miss out on Giannis

    yeah, i forgot that. did miami ever get the rozier trade eligibility sorted out? as much as i think riley is a dirty snake who probably deserves to have an unfair turn of the rules at some point, i don't see why the team is penalized for rozier's mistakes. his contract should be tradable even during the investigation.

    I haven't seen anything official on Rozier, but some of the reporting on Miami's Giannis offer suggests he's in it so I would image they've gotten some assurance he can be treated as a normal expiring.

    Floodgates are open

    Ivey is a good get for the Bulls.

    If they buyout Conley, I'll take him over Gabe

    Wolves clearing room for someone? Beard? Giannis?

    Garland to Minny makes sense to me if the Harden thing has fallen through.

    lol, honestly...better.

    on the court, morant is still pretty good despite some regression over time. he just can't stay on the floor.

    he's also a really awkward fit with reaves and luka given how much he likes to have the ball.

    wait...did minny just trade a pick swap (which probably won't convey) to get off conley? that does smack of getting under the second apron for something else...

    wow, they are really stacking picks. Have to imagine more moves are coming for them. They must be blowing stuff up.

    It does happen, but teams don't typically create room and move players for one particular player unless they're pretty sure they're getting that player

    chicago getting ivey probably means dosunmu could be (more) available? white was already probably on the way out.
