#162

Philadelphia trades:
C Andrew Bogut $14,000,000
PF Lavoy Allen $3,060,000
Draft Rights to Myck Kabongo (#20 overall)
Draft rights to Lucas Nogueira (#32 overall)
Total: $17,060,000

San Antonio trades:
C Emeka Okafor $14,544,687
PF Tristan Thompson $4,285,560
Total: $18,830,247

Philadelphia is under the cap and can absorb the extra salary.

We do this to continue to build a strong talented defensive team.

Great trade Spurs

Love this deal. Just so good for me. BOGUT IS AVAILABLE NOW!

Approved.

Trade 163

Utah sends SG Alec Burks ($2,323,200 .. $3,201,369(TO); to
CLE for Terrence Jones ($1,551,840 .. $1,618,68TO .. $2,489,530(TO) .. $3,532,644

Utah likes Terrence Jones upside and has drafted Kyle Anderson who will play SG & SF which allowed us to make this move and add another skilled big that can guard 3 spots. Great dealing Sambone.

I like Burks who is showing that he can play and produce at this level. We are unsure if Jones can

#164

Washington trades: Wilson Chandler($5,930,414) + Jared Cunningham($1,208,400) + $1.5m in cash = $7,138,814

Detroit trades: Avery Bradley($2,511,432) + Shannon Brown($3,500,000) + Quincy Pondexter($1,234,320) = $7,245,752

Wizards accepts. Bradley is an excellent defensive role-player who is still really young. Brown/Pondexter are fairly solid rotation guys as well.

Detroit Accepts. Brown and pondexter don't have much value and like that chandler is still only 25 and versatile.

#165

Cavs and Suns

Cavs trade Miles Plumlee $1,121,520

Suns trade $1mil in CASH and 2014 Denver 2nd

We needed the money and Miles wanted to play with his little brother. Nice dealing Jace

Good dealing sir! Won't complain here - pair two succesful brothers with some nice NCAA pedigrees behind them.

PHI 2014 1st

IND Out:

Deal 2)

LAL Out:
LAL 2017 1st

#167
Washington trades: Avery Bradley($2,511,432) + Quincy Pondexter($2,225,479) = $4,736,911

Miami trades: Danny Green($3,762,500) + Fab Melo($1,311,240) +2014 Miami 2nd = $5,073,740

Washington accepts.might be sellin bradley a little short, but I love Danny Green. Good defender, great shooter, and can handle the ball as well...also still young to fit my core.

Heat accept. Couldnt pass up on one of the league's top defenders. Good dealin Moss!

#168 Milwaukee and LAL

Milwaukee sends:

Kyle Lowry - $6,210,000
Jason Terry - $5,225,000
Total = $11,435,000

LAL sends:

George Hill - $8,000,000
Larry Sanders - $3,053,368
Total = $11,053,368

Why for Milwaukee? Well to be honest I'm bored. I like Sanders a lot - plus by looking back at my ins and outs, this effectively means I acquired Wade for just Ellis, Ilyasova, Beno Udrih and a future 1st. Which makes me happy.

Good dealing GhostX - glad we could get something done.

We accept. Love Lowry's physical/mental toughness and his knack for getting to the FT line. We loved Larry too but he would never start over Tyson (DPOY) so had to be moved. Terry can still give you 15-20 any given night and will lead from the bench. Good dealing luke

#169 Milwaukee, Cleveland and Memphis have agreed a 3-way!

Milwaukee sends:
Carlos Boozer - $15,300,000

Receives:
Tayshaun Prince - $7,235,955
Alonzo Gee - $3,250,000

Cleveland sends:
Jason Thompson - $5,643,750
Alonzo Gee - $3,250,000

Receives:
Carlos Boozer - $15,300,000
* Cleveland has $10m cap space to absorb the difference in salaries

Memphis sends:
Tayshaun Prince - $7,235,955

Receives:
Jason Thompson - $5,643,750


Why for Milwaukee? I like Boozer but we've got 4 quality bigs and breaking him down into some depth elsewhere is important. Prince is a nice defensive SF and has proven himself now he's settled into Memphis IRL - who are quickly consolidating their position as an elite defensive team.

Cleveland accepts, Booz has been playing well and is perfect next to Big Hibb. We were not content just getting in the playoffs this past season, we think Kyrie with EG, Booz and Hibbert is getting us close to the place we want to be here in Cleveland

TRADE #170

Boston Celtics receive:
SG Shannon Brown ($3,500,000)

Washington Wizards receive:
PF Darrell Arthur ($3,231,683)
2015 2nd RND (SAC)

Boston accepts. Salaries work. We needed to bolster our backcourt off the bench and Shannon fits that role perfectly.

had a bunch of backup 2 guards, get a small asset and a solid backup big.

171:

SAS out:

Bogut- $14,200,000
Diaw- $4,702,500

= $18,902,500



Dallas out:

Hayes- $5,722,500
Teletovic- $3,563,600
T. Robinson- $3,526,440
M. Teague- $1,074,720
2015 ATL 1st (unprotected)
2016 LAL 1st (unprotected)

= $13,887,260

DAL has the cap to do that.

As SAS I love this deal. I can finally use my massive amount of cash to buyout Hayes and Teletovic. I also get Robinson a solid prospect, Teague a decent prospect, and 2 possibly very good 1st. Good dealing!

Deandre + Bougt is a Center rotation I'm very happy with. I also like Diaws game.

T.Rob is tough to lose, the picks aren't that big a deal to me.. as they were gravy in other trades. I HATE losing Teague.

I'm sure many of you know i 've been trying to move Hayes + Teletovic, so that's great.

I have enough 2014 cap to add a max (Dirk?)

[HornetJail]

Trade 172: NO-GSW

New Orleans Receives:
SF Carlos Delfino ($3,000,000)
2015 HOU 2nd Round Pick
3 million cash

Golden State Receives:
SG Austin Rivers ($2,339,040)

Hornets accept.

Delfino fits what we want to do.

I wanted Rivers since day one. He can grow with us, and will be a nice bench player, making a sick 4 man guard rotation for the future with Jrue / Klay / IT and Rivers. Good dealing Karm!

[HornetJail]

#173 - Milwaukee & New York

Milwaukee Trade:

Alonzo Gee - $3,250,000

New York Trade:

Jason Kidd - $3,090,000

Why for Milwaukee? Gee was surplus, we need a backup PG and feel Kidd is better than anyone available in FA. He's a still a good defender, notching 1.4 steals, and a solid 7/4/4 with good TS%. A nice vet to add to our squad.

Knicks accept.

Gee is younger and better. 'Nuff said.

[HornetJail]

Trade #174: New York - Detroit

New York Receives:
PG Eric Bledsoe ($2,626,473)
PF Greg Monroe ($4,086,454)

Detroit Receives:
PG Russell Westbrook ($14,693,906)
2016 1st Round Pick

Pistons are under the cap, so this deal creates a TPE worth $7,980,982.

Knicks accept.

I wasn't planning on parting ways with Westbrook, but Bledsoe is playing extremely well and Greg Monroe is one of the more valuable trading pieces given his age, contract, and production.

Westbrook is a top 10 player and only 24. With him bledsoe was expendable and is only 1 year younger so huge upgrade. Monroe is due for huge extension and prefer Drummond at c anyways. Good trading NY!

#175


LAL and BKN have reached a deal



LAL Out:
Jason Terry $5,225,000

Total: $5,225,000


BKN Out:
Ekpe Udoh $4,469,567
Jimmer Fredette $2,574,120

Total: $7,043,687

Brooklyn Accepts.

LA is running very very close to the hard cap, please keep that in mind, also update your roster.

[HornetJail]

Trade #176
Toronto in:Marshon Brooks($1,210,080) and Markieff Morris($2,091,840)
Total= $3,301,920

Detroit in:Patrick Patterson ($3,105,302) and Detroits 2014 second round pick

like patterson alot more than brooks and morris and get our pick back.

Patterson is more establish but I like that Morris and Brooks have more upside. Accepted.

[HornetJail]

Trade 177: NO-ORL

New Orleans Receive:
PG Ishmael Smith (Vet Min)
PG Ronnie Price (Vet Min)

Orlando Receives:
Future Considerations

Hornets accept.

We need players.

ORL accepts. Sure, why not...

[HornetJail]

Trade #178: DET/ORL

Detroit Sends
Anthony Bennett ($2,356,320), Wilson Chandler ($6,344,164), $1.5m cash

ORL sends
Ryan Anderson ($8,308,500), Aaron Craft ($490,180)

Math Works:
ORL Outgoing/DET Incoming: $8,798,680
DET Outgoing/ORL Incoming: $8,700,484

Magic accepts. We like the upside that Bennett provides, and Chandler has been playing well lately.

Detroit Accepts. Found Chandler didnt have much value and a draft pick is always risky. Love andersons game too, spreads the floor, awesome rebounder and great contract.

[HornetJail]

179. Clippers and OKC have agreed to a deal that cannot be finalized for 72 hours to two of the players re-signing in free agency.

Clippers Outgoing
Nikola Pekovic 13,800,000
Jamal Crawford 5,225,000
= 19,025,000
for

Thunder Outgoing
Brandon Jennings 14,580,000
Robin Lopez 5,119,761
= 19,699,761

Clippers accept, the Clippers for the first time in its history have legitimate franchise PG, and will fit well in a starting lineup of Batum/Pierce/Garnett/Varajao, and Robin is proving himself to be a good center, just going to have to keep watching more tape of his brother.

Thunder accept. Nikola Pekovic is from my homeland and one of my favorite players in the league hes also a nice fit as a rugged tough guy on a front line with Lebron and Durant. Crawford is also a quality sixth man.
