Trade Deadline Rumors Thread (Update pg. 24)

[Ben]

Don't know if you guys are interested in some of today's tweeted trade rumors, but just in case you are I'll post a bunch. Credit to poster Jordan45822 for gathering most of them.

Alex Kennedy ‏ @AlexKennedyNBA
League source believes a Jamal Crawford trade is coming. Nothing is imminent, but that may end up being the first domino to fall.

Ken Berger ‏ @KBergCBS
The Blazers and Clips are discussing a deal that would send Jamal Crawford to L.A. for Eric Bledsoe and Ryan Gomes, sources say.

Jarrod N Rudolph ‏ @MisterRudolph
League sources have told me a Dwight Howard trade is not coming. Magic on the verge of blockbuster deal.

Jarrod N Rudolph ‏ @MisterRudolph
Sources say Magic, Warriors & Hornets are discussing 3-team deal that would send Ellis and others to Magic. Nothing imminent at this point

Jarrod N Rudolph ‏ @MisterRudolph
Magic players said to be discussed: Redick, Q.Richardson, Turkoglu, Anderson and Orton. Hornets believed to be unloading Kaman in the deal

Jarrod N Rudolph ‏ @MisterRudolph
Discussed deal would send Ellis, Dorell Wright and Andris Biedrins to the Magic, sources said.

Sam Amick ‏ @sam_amick
I repeat: Don't expect Dwight Howard-obsessed Warriors owner Joe Lacob to help Orlando keep Dwight Howard in any way. That is all.

[KrazySixersD]

thats true too... how are we going to make that decision though when we will have to make it before knowing if we can win out on a RFA?

[KrazySixersD]

dude what?

there is NO WAY the magic can get ellis without giving up howard... there ONLY tradeable assets on that entire roster are anderson and redick

the warriors have no need for redick with curry already there, and they have no need for anderson with david lee there

theres no way this can be true... hedo is a throw in in a deal.. hes not a good piece the recieving team of hedo is getting a BAD piece...

ill be livid if the magic weasel there way into ellis for nothing

[KKell2507]

A guy I wouldnt mind seeing us go after is Larry Sanders. Hes locked up but pretty cheap, not much more than Brackins and is starting to show signs of potential. Great shotblocker and quick and has length. Would fit our uptempo style and would get easier buckets with us than he currently does in Milwaukee's slower pace. His last 10 games, 7pts, 4.9reb, 2.3blks in just 16.3min per game. Id love him if he could give us those numbers in just 16 min of action and could be a great pickup for the playoffs.

something like nocioni, brackins, and a 1st rd pick for Sanders and Beno Udrih.

We lose nothing cap space wise, but get two potential needs basically for a mid 20s 1st rd pick. udrih can be a good backup pg for the rest of the year incase an injury occurs.

Milwaukee does it because they get a prospect in Brackins who cant find time in Philly and a 1st rd pick while adding no cap space and only losing a prospect theyve had a hard time finding minutes for themselves.

[PhilasFinest]

Sanders would be a nice pickup as a potential Rim protector.

Def would offer Brackins both 2nds in the speights deal and see what happens.

some talk with ATL about hinrich and Vlad Rad for meeks and Nocioni. we asked for Ivan Johnson who is the guy that got a double double on us last time we played but they seem hesitant to deal him.

Hinrich would be a good backup point guard with Lou at the 2.

Turner obviously is playing himself off the trade block....so like Eskin said the other night...if they do anything...it will be small

[ProcessDoctor]

Thanks SF. Seems like a lateral move, but Hinrich is definitely a nice veteran presence to have. Not sure he'd be more valuable than Meeks. Any interest in Josh Smith?

Hmmm...

How many more years does Hinrich have on his deal?

Not sure I'm feeling this deal that much...

[sixerfan1976]

hinrich is a free agent end of year.....

[PhilasFinest]

Hinrich is a solid veteran guard, he can defend and hit the 3...plus an exp.

Rad is basically Meeks but 6'10. He can shoot and that's it.

[KrazySixersD]

thats a good deal... whats hinrich's expiring amount?

hinrich can shoot the 3, play point, and defend the 1 and 2 spot VERY well.. hes a VERY good defender

rad would play some minutes at 3 and spread the floor, turner would the not have to play 40 minutes a night... not bad

[sixers hoops]

Yeah. Not mind-blowing, but a nice little deal.

[51X3RF4N]

Pft..whatever. Turner playing himself off the trade block...so I guess they think we are good to go on the NBA Championship run then? I hate this organization. I wish they would **** or get off the pot. Stop saying you want to win, but then not making the necessary moves to do so. Instead of a mid-1st round pick and a 1st round exit, we will have a late 1st round pick and a potential 2nd round exit, but likely still a 1st round exit again.

What a waste of a season.

[SparksFly87]

Josh Smith and Hinrich for Lou Will, Thaddues Young and Nocioni. Breakup the Doug Collins love fest with the bench players and bring a elite shotblocker and future allstar powerforward. We could get the most out of Josh Smith skill set. Possibly entice Dwight Howard with Jrue, Turner, Iggy and j smoove. Hinrich in addition brings defensive toughness and addition outside shooting.

[underpressure]

Well, the Hawks must be assuming that Meeks is a better shooter than Hinrich and Radmanovic. Otherwise they would have no reason to trade two serviceable players for one.

On the first sight, it seems to favor the Sixers but Meeks can hit three point shots in high volumes and thus be a game changer in certain sequences of the game. In this stage of the career, I don't think that Hinrich and Rad can do this.

[eyeatoma]

Agreed, I like Hinrich, but can't stand vlad rad. He is not a good shooter anymore, and i haven't seen him get hot in ages. There are tons of three point specialists in the league, and Radmonovich is on the bottom of the rung. Meeks although seemingly expendable is not horrible on defense and he knows the system. I would try to keep him, or look for another deal that brings us a true knockdown shooter.

Hinrich would be a good buy low move. He started out the year awful because he was hurt but has better lately. Make no mistake though he's no where near the player he used to be. Jodie is the better shooter at this point but if he isn't going to play enough to keep a rhythm I'd rather have the superior defender.

Feel like VladRad wouldn't play enough to be relavant. Ivan Johnson lol

Would be weird for two potential playoff opponents to make a trade like this. Biggest win would be the clinch that we won't give Jodie some 5 year deal instead of picking up his replacement in the draft.

I bet Jodie would like this, he lives in Atlanta.

lol wat?

Turner was probably the only real moveable piece (Jrue too I guess) but we are back at a stage where making a move just to make a move is stupid.

Had we continued to lose, Turner was still a pussy, and such, then you'd have a point.

Besides not like there are many moves that we can make right now that would make us a contender nor are there any that will make us better....so why?

Meeks and Noc for Kirk and Vlad isn't a bad move as it frees up some capspace and we get a good player back in Kirk for the rest of the year.

A week ago you would have had a point...unless you want them to sell high on Turner....then don't expect a move.

And for once that's okay as there is probably not that can be done that will move us to the next level.

You're right, we should rush and make a trade. After all, it's always good to make a trade for the sake of making a trade. Let's ignore the fact that the big name on the trade market is refusing to sign an extension with Chicago, let alone the Sixers. We should mortgage all of our young players for a rental. ET is finally getting minutes and putting up great performances thus far. The Sixers will win a first round series at this rate, and potentially upset Chicago in the second round. The team is young and needs to be patient. Rash moves lead to bad results. If there's a trade out there to improve the team, then obviously Thorn will pull the trigger.

[Sixerscan]

refuse to watch the team until they trade for MONTAHHHH!!!!!!
