The trade deadline for the 2019-20 NBA season falls on Feb. 7, 2020 at 12:30 AM.

Well Gallo is target n°1 obviously. Best case scenario would be Gallo and a first for a very good young prospect but probably won't happen so Gallo for a late first would be very good.

Odds of getting rid of CP are not good at all (if we don't overpay) so I think he will play this season with us.

Don't think a team will trade for Schroeder even if he keeps playing ''well''

Don't know about Adams. Tough situation as well

I still think Orlando makes sense for CP3. They seem to be sick of rebuilding and have struggled a bit out of the gate. Aaron Gordon still hasn’t taken the all tar jump that Orlando fans have predicted. Milwaukee makes some sense for CP3 too. It’s just tough to make a deal work without including Middleton. A lot of Milwaukee fans are pretty down on Middleton and Bledsoe. Bledsoe just doesn’t make enough to make the deal work without adding ten players.

Don't think the bucks will gamble on CP3. Maybe next year if they don't make the Finals this year. Losing Middleton (and flexibility) for CP3 and his huge salary isn't worth it.

If Chicago really thinks they have a shot at AD, I could see something centered around Gallo + for Lauri and Lavine.

I don’t believe AD would seriously leave LA and if he did, I don’t see him considering Chicago. I also wouldn’t be surprised if Gar-Pax go impatient and did something drastic.

I think it can be demonstrated that Chicago is run by a very inept front office.

I doubt AD leaves for Chicago either. But I do think OKc could put together a legit offer for Chicago to clear the space necessary to sign AD.

I could also see Lavine in OKC regardless of what Davis does. I don’t know what to think about it.

Lauri is worth way more than clearing cap space...

Would you trade for Bamba if he becomes available? He seemed to be on the outs in Orlando as early as last years deadline. He still has a lot of tools to develop in to a good, modern nba center.

If Noel gets traded, I'd guess it might be more likely to the Hawks, Pistons, Clippers or Spurs.

He has a no trade clause.

For what?

I’m not really sure of his value. Definitely not as high as it was and he’ll be two years in to his development. Assuming Orlando keeps playing him very little like they are now, I can’t see him being worth much more than the Denver pick.

Re: Noel

"He has a no trade clause."

He can waive it.

I said "if".

Is he going to re-sign again? I sorta doubt it. But depends on what is done with Adams, what is planned with Patton, what may have promised to Noel or hinted at by Presti.

Why would he waive it to be a backup on other teams that aren't contenders? Especially with the possibility we look to get off Adams.

Of the 4 I mentioned 2-4 will probably make playoffs. More likely than Thunder. Play in playoffs could help his free agent value.

It comes down to what these or other teams say to his agent. I'd think it is fairly likely one of them will be more willing to give him bigger minutes and spend on him than Thunder. But we'll see. One of many possible trade possibilities. One not discussed recently to my knowledge. Could be in a larger trade.

I havent been watching a lot of OKC games now that WB is gone, but I did take a look at the roster stats and I see that Donovan is still hiding Burton on the bench. It makes sense now, since he probably wants to tank for picks and Burton could tilt the team towards playoff contention. OKC should do WB another solid and trade him to HOU. Even after the Free Burton movement from last season, OKC clearly still doesn't value him and would probably give him away for nothing. In retrospect it would look like armed robbery, but he deserves his freedom. The guy is an all star level talent that has been rotting on the bench for years now. Its robbing NBA fans regardless of team affiliation when a guy of this level is being hidden from collective view.

So with that said, what would you trade Burton for?

I....uh.... what?
