The Wizards just acquired Ramon Sessions. I doubt they're going to want/need Jack now (unless they're compensating for Beal's injury with more guards).

Reggie jackson, if dealt here will have 30 games to prove what his worth is.

this has me most excited. a big second half for him could get us in the playoffs.

This is amazing and pisses me right off. I still think King is a piece of **** but if he can pull of some of these reported trades, what a piece of work he is.

The OKC one makes total sense: Gives us a long term PG to replace DWill and for now, another PG in which we really need. Also we get to shed Perkins this summer and he will play a backup role for us. PJ3 is icing on the cake.

The Minny deal makes sense b/c Thad is a true PF, which we haven't had since Humphries. He is also an awesome fit (on paper) next to Plumlee.

And I don't think Deron will get traded today. He has no value, come on, who would really take him? If the Kings did... imagine doing a 3 way trade with CHA that can bring Lance to us, Collison + to CHA, and Williams to Sactown.

And also we should look to keep JJ instead of dealing him to Pistons... unless we can get some solid picks.


BK -- Get me a fun to watch, energetic, highly competitive team!

Reggie has a 7 foot wingspan and is a really good athlete. Will be interesting to see him and Deron play next to each other.

We might actually assemble a nucleus to entice free agents.

King is the ultimate troll.

In other news, KG might be leaning towards going to MIN.

Can someone convince me that Reggie Jackson will actually be a good future player? I just don't see it I kind of want the trade to happen just so Brook Lopez is on a good ass team.

Will be fun to have an athletic roster. Reggie, PJIII, Thad Young and Mason Plumlee sounds awesome.

If the deal goes through, the true underrated (and my favorite) part is getting Perry Jones.

I remember watching him at Baylor thinking that this dude's potential is just a notch under KD's potential. The biggest thing is that if he plays well, we'll have him on a rookie contract. He's got a team option for next year and can be given a qualifying offer for 2016-17.

That's HUGE if he pans out well!

I think King reads my posts cause I was all over Reggie Jackson and Thad from months ago. Too bad we cant get Martin too.

I still bring back Blatche if all these deals go thru.

So it looks like we're in the red zone.

Let's just hope King doesn't pull a Darrell Bevell/Pete Carroll at the goal line.

So the whole deal might be part of a 4 team trade? Wow.

I would be disappointed to see Jack go, that guy can turn it on in an instant... but can also turn it over in an instant. I hope he stays here.

And I hope Reggie will be worth it. B/c you know it's not just going to be a rental, we will resign him. Hope he doesn't just want to get paid like Deron did, then dog it during his tenure here. That's what Nets players are known for.

I think a major overhaul like this though is necessary. This is the closest we've been to hitting the nuclear reset button.

KG and Perkins are BFFs. I could see KG wanting to have a legit friend on the team for the rest of the year if this truly is his last season.

19 PER with 2.3 ows/3.1 dws as a starter. not bad for a 24 year old with limited opportunites in a system with alot of shots needing to go around.

i dont think he will be great, but i think he can be pre-injur jrue holliday ish, which is worth lopez in my book
