Yea as of right now. Maybe someone has some inside info. Any team trade rumor can affect the suns though.

Hmm. MT @Mike_Bresnahan Hawks have been pursuing Pau Gasol. Nothing imminent, but Josh Smith would be key piece going to Lakers.

We have an offseason thread, AND we have a trade thread. This is a little redundant.

This is a rumor thread!! Not a trade idea thread.
But thanks for not reading.

If Connecticut center Andre Drummond falls to the Warriors at seven, expect the Warriors to call Houston and try to get out of the No. 7 pick. Houston wants Drummond as their center project. The Warriors don’t really want Drummond, but there are a couple of guys Golden State would want at picks 14 and 16, or even 18 (Houston owns all three of those picks).


Warriors have also talked with Milwaukee Bucks about moving down to the 12th slot. The Bucks are looking to move up to secure one of the big men they like (John Henson, Tyler Zeller). If Thursday, Milwaukee believes Henson and Zeller will be gone (leaving them stuck with less-ready Meyers Leonard or Jared Sullinger and his back concerns), Bucks GM John Hammond may take the bait. Golden State could get Luc Mbah a Moute in return or even get Ekpe Udoh back. I’ve got to think Mark Jackson would prefer Ekpe Udoh. He had Ekpe playing his best ball before the Warriors (reluctantly) traded him to Milwaukee.

Of course now Milwaukee is at 14, but I still wouldn't be surprised to see the Bucks offer one of those two guys (Udoh or Mbah a Moute) and 14 for 7, because they want Henson (regardless of getting Dally) and GS wants a sf (maybe Harkless, Jones, PJ3)

I doubt Warriors would trade before they are on the clock because there is a slight chance that Barnes or MKG fall to them, and they really just want to get a good 3.

Drummond and Hakeem? Sounds great for them.

I hope that Houston does pull this off and gets Drummond. They have the best chance of developing him, and I hate to see good potential go to waste.

I agree! The trade thread encompasses rumors, for there have only been a few actual trades to discuss, so most of it has been either rumors or fanterbation. :D

It should be merged, or we will have a ton of similar threads, where guys can't figure out where to post their opinions. :(

This is a rumor thread!! Not a trade idea thread.
But thanks for not reading.


So when a trade actually happens, do you want us to put it in here or in the already existent offseason thread?

Basically I just want the latest tweets or news on here. I wanted this thread to stay away from people's trade ideas they come up with and pictures people post describing their emotional feelings on a subject.

The "trade thread" was 90 percent peoples trade ideas not actual trades that are rumored or actually going to happen. Hope that clears it up.

So now your posting non trade rumors in your own "trade rumors only" thread?

A draft rumor in a trade rumor only thread. Hmmmmmm......

Its a frustraing time for Suns fans, the draft always seems to bring out the worst in us, so im gonna let you slide on that last remark.

If you keep it up though, i will be forced to take further action.

So any rumor goes here? Cause what does Toronto leaning towards picking Rivers have to do with trades?

I thought the title says "Trade rumors" as in rumors only about trades...

But if this thread is just about rumors in general, let me join in!

So did you guys hear Kim Kardashian is gonna stop dating athletes?
