Willy Hernangomez wants to get traded by the deadline per hoopshype and marca.com

[Jeff Van Gully]

Nothing in the quotes you posted says he wants to be traded. He says he wants to play. That's a big difference. I highly doubt we end up moving him over the older players, especially since KOQ and Kanter can opt out this summer.

yep. yet again we fall headlong into sensationalism. we know where willy is at with it. and i respect wanting to play. but he never has asked for a trade. whether or not he'd be comfortable with one is really irrelevant because he is an NBA player under contract.

[Jeff Van Gully]

If they deal him, I hope it gets us Kemba and we don't deal Frank or give up a pick. But his value is down because he doesn't play. I still think he wont get dealt. I'm not ready to deal any of our young players yet! At some point, we have to be patient and build this thing from the bottom, up!

word. if he is the key piece of a kemba deal... hmmmm...

Move Kanter today

What team needs a center?
The Cavs?

Frye and Iman and a pick for Kanter.
Cut them both IMMEDIATELY.

I argued a month ago that Billy never said he wanted to be traded. He didn't then but, now he has.

Has he though? Or is it just that the title of the thread should have been a runner up on Trump's fake news awards.

The Cavs just gave up 148 points in a game and you think they want to add Kanter...so that they can literally have the worst defense of all time?

Meh, I like KOQ. If he’s traded I’d be sad, but I’d understand.

Cavs need more than a C, they need Jesus and every other religious prophet / god.

I like him too...we just aren't in a position to pay him what he's going to get. He also has some value around the league I believe.

i proposed this trade on the trade block seems like it could make sense for all parties

Knicks Trade:

Kyle O'quinn
Doug McDermott
Lance Thomas

Knicks Receive:

Cole Aldrich
2018 Celtics 1st rounder
2019 Miami Heat 2nd rounder (per Timberwolves)

Celtics Trade:

Aron Baynes
2018 Celtics 1st rounder

Celtics Receive:

Kyle O'Quinn
Doug McDermott

Timberwolves Trade:

Cole Aldrich
Miami Heat 2nd rounder

Timberwolves Receive:

Aron Baynes
Lance Thomas

http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=yb3smn4c

Reasons:

Knicks - trade a couple productive players that are on the last remaining part of there contracts and get some value for them. Take on Aldrichs extra year to get a little more value.

Celtics - there bench lacks shooting and interior defense. This trade accomplishes both without trading much value. KOQ is a upgrade over Baynes. Better rebounder, interior defender, and a more polished on the offensive end.(better passer for brad's unselfish offense). I don't know how the celtics roster situation is because I know they have a lot of players. I guess if the knicks like one of the young players that aren't currently in the rotation that maybe have late 1st round value that could be subbed in as well.

T-wolves - taking a player that doesn't play and adding a little insurance with Baynes. And a vet wing defender in Lance Thomas (thibs loves defenders) and he is someone you can throw on a durant or Harden a few times a game and he will compete on that end.

I'm sure they'd take O'Quinn though. His contract is cheap, and there is no commitment past this year if he opts out. That should be worth their pick, since they have the BK one as well.

[2010]

Wow. He thinks he can change things here? Maybe seren is on to something. Billy traded in the next 2 weeks? I still think no. Kyle is odd man out. The contracts logically dictate this scenario. Unless the FO is on drugs which s highly probable. OR they move Kanter. Highly unlikely because, the team thinks running 2 7 footers is productive in today's game. Just like not shooting or defending 3s is a good game plan. Just have everyone collapse on the ball every play. Who needs perimeter defense?

I argued a month ago that Billy never said he wanted to be traded. He didn't then but, now he has. He was talking around the scenario though. Now he's just fed up with Jeff and has the balls to actually say it with the deadline approaching. Not sure it's a good look for him or Jeff.

Respect for manning up. But tbh Billy said the same schit a month ago. Just in different words. In fact, he been saying this for quite some time now.
