THE Trade Deadline Thread

Keep an eye on New Jersey possibly waiving Gadzuric. I'd much rather have him than Murphy to be honest. Keep in mind, it's mostly to get Dan's wife in the deal as well. :lol:

dwight looked so pissed off in the interview. Cant blame him, the blame is on otis smith and svg. I say nelson has to be traded for this team to gel. I rather have him than gil, but no one is taking gil. Lets see what happens tomorrow. I hope dwight gives the team enough time to find a good trade, if he really wants to leave. (if it came down to it, I would take bynum/gasol/odom for dwight and arenas)

I'm getting up early though and hoping I'm wrong though.

if anything happens it would be probably after the deadline passes when it breaks. But heres to otis realizing that his job is on the line and doing something about it. Troy murphy is ok, but not the answer.

Could be wrong, but just my conclusion.

Dwight and Stan both speak very generally. Stan's complaints were the lack of defense, lack of rebounding, not protecting the ball and not being able to shoot. Dwight's main complaint is about energy.

it's really up to the players whether they want to bring it every night. i'd say Dwight, Jameer and JJ are the only guys on the team with the fire and determination to play hard every night, and do what it takes to win a 'ship. it's a shame that Dwight is the only one who can do it consistently. Turk, JRich, Bass, Anderson, Arenas all pick and choose when they want to show up to play. fortunately, Turk and JRich have shown they can do that in the playoffs, so i'm certain we'll see a different level of play from them come that time. the jury is out on the rest, however.

Otis Smith says he did not make a trade offer for Deron Williams, per @JoshuaBRobbins.

that's a shame......maybe he has his eyes on somebody else? Iggy or Gerald?

Otis likes this team. He'd much rather have Jameer and his boy Gilbert than that guy Deron.

I'm surprised the Jazz didn't contact our team or the Pacers for Deron. THe Magic and the Pacers have one of the most white players besides their team.

BQRMagic Hm. RT @ajchawks #Hawks may not be done dealing. Held out Zaza Pachulia tonight as trade discussions continue. via twitter

I think Blake is gonna get traded for Ryan Anderson.

After all, LAC is looking for some 3pt threats.

Dwight's post game interview reminds me of Tracy McGrady getting pissed before he left.

Somebody needs to start a fake rumor to get Otis active. Something like "Hornets are ready to trade chris paul" or "Sixers making Iggy available".

just watched the Live Sportscenter segment with Chris and Jalen

Bulls looking at C-Lee and/or OJ Mayo

Miami looking to shop Miller (already knew that)

Houston, Cleveland are all active in trade talks, looking to get rid of players

And Minnesota looking to get rid of Flynn... and a lot of teams are still looking into Wallace, including Portland

No mention of Orlando... No mention of Zbo or Memphis... or Utah with Millsap and/or Jefferson

sigh

maybe b/c most teams didn't know that Deron Williams would be on the trading block? And besides, there was no way we would be able to top the NJ offer.

Do we even know if Otis was aware that Deron was on the market?
