[Official] 2017 NBA Trade Deadline Deals and Rumors Thread

Jimmer just poured in 73 in 2OT, so he must be getting plenty shooting practice

 

Kevin McDaniels as a sweetener? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Is Corey Brewer the cherry on top then?

 

That's hilarious and true

KJ is pretty much worth just a splenda packet right now.

 

If KJ McDonalds is worth a splenda packet (sweetener), Corey Sewer is probably worth the plastic stirrer. Cherry on top is too much.

 

If KJ is the sweetener this will be the saddest "win-now" move in NBA history.

Warmly welcome back Omer Asik?

 

the last time thomas tweeted the eyes emoji, it was immediately announced horford was signing with boston.

 

First, you dangle Corey Brewer and then you sweeten it up with KJ?

Surprised a deal hasn't already gone down. Shocked.

 

Mike Adamle is currently in a battle with a severe case of CTE. That may be a troll account.

 

As purely a prospect, KJ has some value. He's also got a team option for 2017-2018, so there's an out if you don't think he's worth it.

I'm sure everyone is just having fun with the wording, but don't forget that you never start negotiations at the "fair price". You find a team that has what you want, who has at least a passing interest in your initial offer, and go from there. Also, you occasionally get a sucker that takes your lowball bid because they were desperately trying to sell.

 

I must be missing something. They are just sending KJ away? It doesn't say who is involved in the potential deal.

 

that's a quote from the Zach Lowe article. all he says is:

• Houston is chasing a win-now move, sources say, and may send out K.J. McDaniels as the sweetener. McDaniels doesn't play, mostly because of a busted jumper. Some team should take a shot on him at the right price. If there's a lesson of the last half-decade of NBA trades, it's this: When there's a rangy or athletic wing that has even a 10 percent chance of being decent, try to grab that player as a throw-in to a larger deal. Think about how teams landed Crowder, Middleton, Iman Shumpert, Will Barton, and even Tim Hardaway Jr. You cannot have enough versatile wings.

​

 

Corey Brewer is actually overheating whatever it is we are trying to put cherries on until it burns your tongue.

 

Wolves inquire about Derrick Rose

 

Did Rose's knees sleep with Thibs' wife?

He's out to get them b****es.

 

So basically its a quote saying what almost every team in the NBA is trying to do which is try to improve their team if they can in some sort of trade? Revolutionary.

Thanks for putting entire quote though.

 

in other news, clutchfans posters argue about Omer Asik

 

Sources say Rockets are willing to include Kyle Wiltjer, Bobby Brown & Tyler Ennis as sweeteners, if necessary. However, they'd prefer not to part with any of them as they are the best towel wavers the team currently has.

More info as it comes available.
