The hits keep hitting!

OP put [Shams] at start of the thread so people know it's not just a trade.

I thought this was going to be a quiet trade deadline.

Post #5 » by **zimpy27** » Mon Feb 3, 2025 1:35 am

My guess is:

Kings get LaVine+Sochan
Bulls get Vassell+Huerter
Spurs get Fox

What's Chicago getting out of this?

I love this pairing, going to be very fun to see them play together for the next decade.

Good guess but I don't see why the Kings would prefer LaVine over Vassell.

Makes me think Spurs kept Vassell out of the deal, which would be a little surprising.

Word is Kings got 3 1st round picks.

24/5/5 - 51% from field - 45% from 3

25/6/5 - 47% from field - 32% from 3

Lavine is having a better season. Both are bad defensively. Fox still worth more but depends what else we got

Not sure Monk LaVine backcourt is the answer.

I think the Kings made out decently here even if the on-court fit is dicey. But I don't think they're a better team this year.

Lavine's got a worse rap than he deserves.

And the board is dead haha... Fox, LaVine, AD, Luka all traded with-in 24 hours is nuts!!

Luka is traded is no problem. But a Fox trade breaks Realgm for hours.

Go figure.

NYG · Post #15 » by **NYG** » Mon Feb 3, 2025 2:57 am

Spurs kept Castle, Sochan, CP3, Keldon, Vassell, Barnes, etc. too... crazy!

Does San Antonio make a follow-up deal? Zion/Ingram from the Pelicans? Cam?

They have the ability to.

I see more stuff coming here.

We still haven’t solved the front court issue but with all those seconds and more firsts we have a LOT of ammo to pick and choose from the many available this deadline.

4 firsts and 3 seconds plus Collins, Jones, and Sidy Cissoko was the final cost of Fox. I think the Kings messed up the return, but if their happy, so be it.z

Great deal for Spurs wow

OK that value seems about right. I first saw it without the picks to Sacramento and really didn't like it for them. This is reasonable.

For Chicago, this isn't the haul some were hoping for but getting their own 1st back is useful and the only really bad contract they take is Collins and they can live with that moving Zach. May be able to get a little more value moving a PG as they're over deep at that position. Moves the team further in to a longer term view which is what fans have been asking for.
