2022-23 Team Developments: News / Trades / Free Agents / Rumors

I can see us picking him up if he is on the buy out market.

 

Ohhh Mo Bamba just got suspended 4 games for fighting, maybe that is why Orlando did the deal for Pat.

 

I don't think K-Love has too much gas left in the tank, getting 20 minutes per, still shoots the 3 respectfully.

 

Pauil George recruiting Westbrook

Pelin

traded three for Rui

traded one in Westbrook trade

Got three in moving Bryant

traded one for Bamba

3+1-3+1= 2 trade away

 

Well, Rob has done a great job in reversing most of the damage caused by the Brick trade. He gets a massive bouquet of flowers for me for these moves. So happy we finally have another defensive minded big who is large enough to bang( I like Wenyen, but he’s way too slight to handle the true centers like Jokic).
I was starting to come around on Bev but he had to go because of how Hambone was using him like a forward on d.

 

Yes!!!!!

 

You are correct sir.

Need to also include Nunn in the outgoing players too.

 

I'm sure we tried to flip him, probably to the Nets for Royce O'Neal or Watanabe or to the Pistons with Bev for Bojan. The Nets not trading anyone today was surprising. It does suck for Lonnie but LeBron will be taking some nights off and other guys will miss games. He's a pretty good player to have just for spot duty.

 

The Pistons weren’t in lying when they said they wanted to keep Bojan.

 

Bamba wasn't getting any mins on the Magic. He was behind Carter, Wagner and BolBol in the rotation.

 

Pump the brakes a little.

 

oh, it's fine for us. i just felt like--especially with him being a klutch guy--we'd have tried harder to just get him somewhere he might find minutes for the rest of the year.

great insurance for injury, though. and i guess reaves has had a tough time getting back.

 

1) Got rid of Westbrook
2) Was able to do so by trading only (1) first round pick
3) The first round pick was protected
4) Got rid of Nunn for an athletic wing in Hachimura
5) Got a good PG who we didn't even have on radar in Westbrook deal
6) Added a volume shooter to join said PG who is also is a volume 3 pt shooter
7) Added another young wing in the same trade in Vanderbilt
8) Got rid of Beverley
9) Got rid of Bryant who wasn't a rotational player and who we couldn't afford next season
10) Replaced him with a younger and better rim protector in Bamba
11) Got younger across the board
12) Did all this keeping our two young assets in Reaves and Christie
13) All (5) new players in Hachimura, Vanderbilt, Russell, Beasley and Bamba are under the age of 27
14) Got much needed size
15) Kept one of our 1st round picks
16) Added a second round pick that allows said 1st rounder to have protections on it later

I mean that was some serious Rob-bing going on....

 

Please don't refer to D-Lo as "Russell" it brings back bad memories already.

 

I use DAR

 

We'll refer to him as DLO..or Dlo...

So happy he's back. What a major major upgrade man.

 

How about we call him The Mosgov Attachment?

 

Rob's biggest job is to figure out how to bring back Reaves and probably Schroder. Lonnie can walk. The only guys already on the books next summer are:

LBJ
AD
Vanderbilt
Mo
Max
Beasley (team option)

Need to resign D-Lo, Rui, Reaves, Schroder

Gabriel and Brown will probably take minimums again.

We will have like 24 million not counting any cap holds for Rui, D-Lo

Looks like we go over the cap a lot and fill out the rest with minimums, we got bird rights galore.
