Dallas haven't done too bad, gone from nothing to Barnes and Favors in 6 months.

Seriously? Williams for Favors? Again? In what world does this even make sense? I mean i guess Barea or Devin Harris will now be their starting PG, and adding Favors to come off the bench for Dirk or Bogut i guess? Or are they trading Bogut to the Celtics and using Favors as their starting C?

And besides DeRons expiring contract, what assets do they really have to offer the Jazz besides their 1st round pick, which i see as way more valuable than Favors. The Jazz are also a playoff team, so how does adding DeRon even help them this season, if anything i would think it would hurt them by losing Favors and essentially replacing him with nothing.

Im just so confused as to why.

Tanktastic! Tankalicious! Tankasmic!

I always thought BK would be hard to deal cause any GM would just got for Lou Williams first. Now he's off the table, chances of someone taking Knight increase.

I'll believe it when I see it

Nevermind, fake account, that explains everything.

PEOPLE, REMEMBER TO CHECK THE TWITTER LINKS BEFORE YOU POST THEM HERE!

That way we dont get an over abundance of garbage followed by posts trying to rationalize said garbage (Like mine).

Williams playing pretty well this season with 16 ppg and a tad below a 3-1 ast/to ratio. Imagine a top 12 or so 1st rounder would be included. Would be Utah's best PG since Deron Williams.

Butler to Phoenix

Phoenix Suns get: Jimmy Butler

Chicago Bulls get: Two future first rounders (from Miami), Dragan Bender and P.J. Tucker

View in ESPN's trade machine

Jeremias Engelmann: Given that Butler is one of the best players in the league (Real Plus Minus rating of +6.8), a Butler trade would be a rebuilding move.

On the flip side, the Suns have an owner known to be impatient when it comes to winning and making the playoffs. Also, they have very good trade assets: two young power forwards that were lottery picks -- Dragan Bender and Marquese Chriss -- and two future first rounders from the Miami Heat, with one being entirely unprotected.

Cashing in these chips now would give the Suns a very exciting backcourt of Bledsoe, Booker and Butler. The Bulls, on the other hand, would have lots of cap space next summer, plus the two future firsts from Miami.

That's a trade I would do. Doubt Chicago would though.

We would need better 3 pt shooters. Ideally in this day and age, you need 4 of them, but at least 3. Currently we have none except Dudley.

We have plenty of 3 pt shooters...they just don't go in that often....

That was exactly my point

....except turns out we do haha

LB @42%
Book @37%
and Ronnie @100%!!!!! (*cough* on 1 attempt *cough*)

Regardless, I agree we definitely don't have the shot-makers/finishers required to go around a superstar level player.

OK, good work, but LB obviously won't be around for long, and Price of course, so is giving away a bunch or assets for a guy that might leave, for a guy that can't spread the floor worth it?
