Normally, I'd be all for cheering for any Warriors loss, but seeing as Jazz are more likely to catch the Thunder than the Warrior, last night was kinda meh. 3-4 games is a big hill to climb this late in the year.

Hernangomez getting traded for two future seconds... lololol WTF is happening? If this is how much Hernangomez is worth, Favors should net us a mid-first...

It was those unis.

They probably are still recovering from the epileptic seizures those unis induce.

Bermuda is adopting that uniform as its new flag.

I was very surprised that the Knicks got that extra 2nd for him. Seems that teams over value 1st rd picks and undervalue the 2nds.

That's one less playmaker on the market. Hood value rising.

It’s been reported that Jazz guard Joe Johnson will be bought out if he’s not traded before the deadline, and two front-office sources have cited the Thunder as a leader for Johnson. – via The Ringer

The Lakers just got rid of Clarkson, cleared the way for LeBron to sign, and took the Cavs pick just for kicks.

WTF is Cleveland thinking?

There goes the one pick I saw us getting. Even more convinced we don't make a trade. And yeah....what are the Cavs thinking?

Cavs won’t trade a first for Lou or Tyreke, but they do for Jordan Clarkson? Unbelievable.

How did the Cavs owner become a billionaire? Seriously. The Lakers have been begging teams to take on Clarkson for months now. Getting a FRP in exchange for Clarkson and Nance is highway robbery of a blind school child. IT had to have value to a team, such as Detroit. Crazy, just crazy.

Yeah, no Jazz players are going to be traded today.

Then add on the fact that the Cavs just helped a major threat to sign LeBron away from them. :lol:

We’re all calling Gilbert the idiot, but what if LeBron is just a genius? LeBron just improved the situation in LA if he wants to go there.

Maybe he pushed for the trade so he has a better shot at playing with Paul George in LA?

LeGM working for the Lakers now!

It crossed my mind. LeBron and PG on the Lakers is much easier now. They could also throw a significant deal at Exum now which sucks.

LeBron, PG, Ball, Kuzma, Ingram, Randle is a good core group.

Wade was traded back to Miami for a 2nd round pick.

Cavs making BIG changes. Opens up PT for Hood. Wish him well.

Pretty sure Exum isn't the big score the Lakers had in mind. I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.
