I think if things got bad enough, they'd be more inclined to trade Beal than Wall.

And I would do just about anything to get Beal.

So the Clippers are really going to do the whole treadmill thing, huh?

They'll deal Lou this summer.

Most he could have signed for was 4-yrs ~$40 mil. I think the Clippers just didn't see a return they liked. Still very movable as an asset on a deal like that.

probably more tradeable since now a team knows he's locked into the deal instead of possibly gone after a half season. so team get him in the offseason or next deadline and know they have him for a while

Can't trade him for six months

I’d laugh if this is one of the actual reasons they traded him. For maybe the biggest market in the league, it’s incredible how clueless that organization is.

I could see it being an issue if they were undermining the coaching staff, which wouldn’t be much of a surprise.

Starting in '19, Wall is gonna make $37.8, $40.8, $43.8, and $46.8 million. It's one of the worst deals in the league. Washington is gonna need a desperate team to take him off their hands, ala Griffin and Detroit.

It's becoming more clear by the day why Wall and Cousins are bffs.

Can I Minus1 that post

JR Smith's wife posted something on instagram "Trust the Process. We always end up where we're meant to be, when we're meant to be there."

IT liked it & his wife commented, so now everybody is talking JR+IT to the Sixers. Can't see a trade that would be good for both sides there though to be honest...

Cuz they played together at Kentucky? Cuz Boogie's a vastly superior player.

Cuz they're both doorknobs.

And I agree on Boogie.

I doubt it, but that would be great. As soon as Colangelo can start **** up that situation the better.

im glad if theyre going to have bull celebrity games with bull former nba players, they at least throw jason williams out there to spice things up for everyone.

id love to see common get hit in the face with an errant pass.

Wall's contract is a franchise crippler. The Wizards are going to be really **** unless they somehow dump that deal.

I hadn't realized his contract was that big. Talk about a treadmill team, the Wizards should be sponsored by Precor. Also think that old Herbie just found his new favorite team.
