    All reports have said Lakers and Knicks are the most interested. We've got that offer beat regardless of what we pony up. Our 1st is later and whatever salary ballast we have has played more than Fournier thanks to the Thibs dog house.

    Team has to stupidly trade assets to get back players they already had. Some twice (Schroder) :Jeanie Srsly:

    Now that’s the trade I’d make all day for Schroder.

    Wonder what's the cost and what that means for Jones


    Update:


    Washington, you ARE NOT getting a 1st for Jones

    Cam is a SF. With Vando's injuries Max can be moved up a slot if needed (Caruso and DS are better than Max regardless)

    Agreed … Ham screwed him up, on top of the random injuries, from getting into any good rhythm with too few and random minutes. Didn’t prioritize it at all when he was back from each of them.

    Bucks trying to test the Kuz waters

    Jazz in play for Brown, while we potentially wait till the summer to do anything of real significance


    Drummond market (likely too rich for us)
    Smaller moves for the Lakers? ... we like Nets
    Pistons are active, Pelicans want a big and have talked to the Hawks about that and Murray

    i mentioned morris as a target a few weeks ago, but his injury concerned me. if he's able to play, that's a great pickup for minnesota. good conley insurance, which is important to have.

    much like dlo insurance.

    in other news, as i mentioned earlier, i can't figure out wtf utah is doing. they really want to play a play-in game, i guess.

    Just getting Schroeder back without losing Dlo would be a great move.
    If Cam and Vando come back healthy: you get last year's team with a lot more help on the wing. That would be really good outcome!

    Last year team was awesome post deadline: bring home the hedgehog

    I really don't get their path.

    We're going to dump all our vets.

    ...Buuuuut we're also going to trade for a more expensive vet

    utah should be looking to move their vets for young players with promise who are stuck behind others (like max here) instead of picks or worse: 28 year old glue guys.

    So no trade for D-lo ?
    Russell underwent an undisclosed treatment that forced him to miss Wednesday's practice but will suit up Thursday.

    The only move we really need to make at some point is getting a solid backup PG. That's it. I mean, other than trying to find a better coach, but that's obviously not going to happen.

    We should be looking to get Tyus Jones or Dennis Schroder with Gabe vincent and a couple of 2nd's.

    What I DON'T want to see is this stupid a** team getting cheap trying to get under the tax by dumping christian wood! I will seriously riot if we do that.

    IF we are going to do that - we should dump Reddish or Hayes.


    Also - is anybody opposed to Miles Bridges? I know, I know, he's an a****** and women abuser so probably best to staty away but would HATE to see the Suns get him for next to nothing.
