Claxton I do want.

[WuTang_CMB]

I'm thinking the same thing...Masai should've went after Claxton before his value skyrocketed

we're buying high here.

we did
they rejected

what were the Raptors offering

At last year’s trade deadline, the Raptors offered a first-round pick in an attempt to acquire Claxton

If you need to watch one game to form your opinion of a player, you're probably not good at your job lol.

Yeah seriously, I'd be really concerned if Masai just pulls the trigger on a deal for Cam Thomas after tonight's game.

This guy is the most selfish player in the league and doesn’t guard anyone. But of course people are judging him by 2 games where he’s on a heater.

Atrocious defensive player, can't rebound and can't pass. They want to replace Fred with this guy.

claxton and thomas off the table now lol smh

[DatHomieYouHaTe]

Maybe Ben Simmons is for the tank.. now that would be smart but it would be a 3 year tank lol

[Madvillainy2004]

Also do the Nets genuinely think they can get Pascal or OG without giving up Claxton? Because I've been reading a lot of interesting trade proposals lmao

Absolutely trash. Simmons and his terrible contract? Claxton who could walk after next year?

Get some damn shooters.

[Tha Cynic]

Do people really think the Raptors would trade Siakam for Claxton and Thomas? Loool come on

[WuTang_CMB]

Claxton absolutely dominating inside.

One of our biggest problems is that we can't score.

Dude is putting up 40 a game and you don't want?

[TheRaptor!]

woow claxton omg

Wouldnt do it for all NBA Pascal, OG and FVV, id do it

[Yallbecrazy]

Nets probably don't have enough for Pascal, let alone if they throw Simmons into the deal on top of it. Buying low doesn't mean paying alot for a negative asset.

Claxton is a young star with a ton of potential, I don't think there's too many of those on the market. I would definitely make that trade, but I assume if we get Claxton then Koloko is going back too.


How many teams in win now mode have a young budding star player to trade now?

You would trade Pascal and Fred in a deal with Simmons in it who is consider perhaps the worst contract in the league because you get two picks and a swap and Claxton? I like Claxton but come on.

I said nothing of Fred.

I think Pascal and Koloko for Claxton + Simmons and picks is great for us.

After this performance, Clippers going add some beachfront property to their VV offer.

Found this post on reddit yesterday shortly before it was taken down. Make of it what you will. Could be fake, but there is mention trade talks centered around Claxton and Thomas

Spoiler:

[REJECTEDBYCLARK]

We get it, you've made your opinion clear. Move on and stop spamming.

Can you actually get banned from these forums for posting X number of anti-FVV posts? Because I plan on posting anti-FVV comments routinely until he is dealt from the team.

When it enters spamming territory, yes.

Yeah nobody is spamming anything. Go through my post history and stop threatening new posters who you should be welcoming to add to the diversity of the community here. I've been lurking these forums regularly since like 2004 and finally decided to chime in. Being told "move on" is pretty low, have some decency. If you want to ban me because you think I'm trying to flood the message board for whatever reason go ahead, I won't lose any sleep.

[Brinbe]

look at those nets vibes... that's us as soon as fred goes lol

[Tha Cynic]

My hope is the Raptors trade all the old guys and we get a few games like this from the young guys for the rest of the season on our way to a high draft pick.
