Who would take that god awful contract for someone that injury prone and 31 years old?

Seems like a Knick thing to do but they already got Kemba.

Yeah sure, good luck Rockets with finding a trade.

Buyout incoming.

Yeah I mean unless they're surrendering their own first round picks to get out of that contract why would anyone do that at all.

Lakers have a roster spot.

Getting paid 40+ million to not do your job. Where can I negotiate a deal like that?

Is there an equally bad contract in the league?

Even getting the salaries to match in a trade is a huge undertaking.

Westbrook but they already did that trade.

Not as bad. Wall's contract has an extra 50 million added for the same amount of years.

Edit: It's actually 30 million. I mistakenly counted last year's amount as well.

Wall hasn't played more than 41 games since '16-17, and his athleticism/burst is a big part of what made him special in his early 20s.

What a disastrous contract. Hope he ends up a Sixer

I know Wash lucked out in part because of the Lakers doing Lakers things, but man what a great deal that turned out to be for them.

May be a good opportunity to get dragics contract involved.

Raptors want no part in Wall

John Wall... absolutely insane gifts wasted.

this contract was bad when he signed it too haha

still he might have a derrick rose type re-invigoration in the right place.

Of course not but they could help facilitate a deal. Not really sure I’d want this but here is an interesting one:

Raps out: dragic, Boucher, Yuta, 2023 2nd, (waive decker, Gillespie)
Raps in: porzingis

We take a relatively cheap flyer on porzingis, if anyone can keep his healthy it’s us.

Rockets out: wall, wood
Rockets in: love, Rubio, Powell

Rockets get better bad contacts and don’t lose picks, maybe be able to flip them for something small

Cavs out: love, Rubio
Cavs in: wall, raps 2023 2nd, mavs 2022 top 20 protected 1st

Cavs take worse money for some draft capital

Mavs out: porzingis, 2022 top 20 protected 1st
Mavs in: dragic, wood, Boucher

Mavs drop kp for a more reliable and better all around rotation/ more future flexibility with some good contracts.
