Official Trade Thread: Kind of a Drag...ic

[jredsaz]

Plum, Goran, Zoran for
Birdman, McBob, Cole, 1st (2016), 1st (2018).

McBobs deal is fine. Birdmans deal is not.

Sarver maybe thinking that if Lakers can patch things up with Kobe maybe he can do the same with Dragic

there's something there, for sure

he did convince Goran to come back after trading him

[Barkley6]

Maybe buyout the additional players that Heat wants to add.

Can't. Numbers have to match at time of trade or no go.

[thamadkant]

Take the heat offer... Lakers are arrogant they won't budge and think Dragic will be available in the off season.

We can't, without moving two other players.

Goran, Zoran and Plumlee

Flip Cole to Wizards as per wiretap they are interested... For a second rounder.


Buyout Anderson so he can sign with a contender.

Keep McRoberts, he is injured so won't affect this years team. If the Morris issues continues, Suns have McRoberts as safety net.

it sounds like Zoran and Plumlee are those two players

[rsavaj]

This Dragic trade totally tanked our own deadline. Instead of looking to improve the team, we're 100% focused on this mess.

[Christine-In-AZ]

It's probably McBob or Birdman. Not both.

Take that miami deal and buy the birdman out

Not sure that's true, sounds like Suns are still doing due diligence. Dragic hamstrung us for sure, but we're making the most of it it seems like.

Take the miami deal then ship cole/birdman to Cle for haywood

[RunDogGun]

You won't see those first rounders for 5 years and you lose a lot of cap flexibility in the process.

If Sarver declined THAT offer, it means he values cap space more than the Heat's offer. Interesting.

Can't do anything with all the cap space. After all the complaints from IT and Dragic going ham on us, no player is gonna want to sign with us lol

Cap space can be used in trades as well as signing FAs.

McBobs deal is fine. Birdmans deal is not.

What a steal. McD do it again.

I can hear Babby now..."We're not going to sacrifice the long term for the short term"

Hey Babby...both terms f*cking suck, so do something

Hence the frustrations I have.

Left it all out last minute, going public, throwing the FO under the bus... Probably one of the worst case scenarios for a disgruntled star wanting to leave.

[harshey1388]

Man...Dragic just tanked our leverage. Completely.

Again, not saying that I blame him for everything that LED him to this week, but once we got here, dude just ran with it and took it to a whole nother level.

You heard that podcast.. there was a lot to it. Lot's that we don't know about.. locker room stuff. But I agree, Dragic just killed us with everything that he's said publicly.

[gaspar]

Why does everyone want to just dump Plumlee? He costs next to nothing and we can use him.

[Revived]

Trade IT asap please. Along with Green & Plumlee.

We literally only have 40 mins left right?

[jredsaz]

I think because the Heat are over the tax threshold they have to send out more $ than they receive. Thats why McBob and Birdman are both involved. Me thinks.

[thamadkant]

I'm hoping McD is looking for a 3rd team in the next 40 minutes.

[pidi]

get something done
