Clippers discussing a sign and trade with The Bucks

With Sessions are we a playoff team??

I think we are with or without him

The Clippers and Bucks recently engaged in sign-and-trade discussions involving Ramon Sessions, according to a source.

The Clippers, however, realized a sign-and-trade is unnecessary since the Bucks aren't in a financial position to match nearly any offer sheet Sessions signs.

It's never gonna end

Why don't we just sign him already. We're been talking about signing him for over a month.

[TheNewEra]

We need to make or deal or announce we are no longer interested this waiting out is pointless now.

I don't know why we would have even considered a S&T with the Bucks. It should either be sign him outright or move on.

I'd imagine a S&T was being discussed in order to keep most of the teams current 2010 cap in place. Dunleavy is probably pushing Telfair for Sessions.

That and the need to get rid of Telfair if we grab Sessions off the market. Maybe a third team will get involved for the addition of Telfair, because it doesn't seem that the Bucks want or need him with their stack of PG's already.

Im still down for signing Sessions, then trading Telfair for like Redick.

Orlando already has Jameer, A. Johnson, and J-Will. So that's out of the question. However, a Bassy for Tony Allen swap works. Allen is an SG with an expiring contract and thus ends the PG controversy with Sessions on board.

Looks like Session is going to sign the Wolves offer sheet for those still hoping the Clippers would sign him.

Ramon Sessions could be approaching the end of his long and unpredictable free agency odyssey.

Sessions, a restricted free agent who wound being the Bucks' starting point guard last season after just two years in the NBA, could be on the verge of receiving an offer sheet.

Surprisingly, it might not come from the New York Knicks or the Los Angeles Clippers -- two teams that have heavily courted Sessions since the commencement of free agency on July 1.

According to some NBA officials, Sessions may wind up signing with the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Timberwolves are in the market for a guard after their top choice in the 2009 draft -- Ricky Rubio -- recently decided to play for Regal FC Barcelona.

Deal seems to be done. Yay to the Sessions saga being over.

[Heyvoon24]

can the bucks still sign and trade him if to the clipps they match the offer sheet?

[Forte IV]

They might, im not sure though. If they can, then ima be praying this next week for it to happen.

[loflin3hree5ive]

I think Sessions will have the same 8 week hold or so once he signs his new contract like any other player. He just can't be dealt to Minnesota for a year if his offer is matched.

I don't think they he falls under the 8 week hold because if he is match he would be under contract with The Bucks so they would be signing their own FA. Only thing that can stop the trade is a trade clause.

I would have loved for us to have gotten him, but I'm glad it's over as well. With the newest developments in the Rubio situation (staying in Barcelona for 3 years), it seems that the Sessions signing is perfect for him and the Wolves.

[ClipperEric]

I don't think this deal is over at all. Now that Sessions has finally signed a contract, I expect Milwaukee to match and a trade with either the Knicks or Clippers. If I were Sessions, I'd go with the Knicks. He gets a chance to start and with Dantoni's system he'll inflate his numbers.

[TheNewEra]

could also see them letting him go Minny can't hurt them long-term playoffs wise like the Knicks could.

[thanumba2clippersfan]

I'm just glad it's over between us and Sessions.
