    I like this Mo Bamba trade. Rui,Vanderbilt, Wenyen and Bamba...that's a nice mix of young guys to surround AD.

    I wouldn't mind a banger/ more physical 5 on a buyout later. Good job Rob

    Maybe we do something like trade Malik Beasley+Walker for Bogdanovic and Noel

    And AD is only like 6'10". If he's over he's much closer to it than 6'11". Sure hope Huff is in plans to be brought up. Tall damn body who plays hard and can shoot some and has some game, for use against other teams' bench players and in case of emergency with AD injury, still off the bench. Not ideal for sure, so ... would seem definitely a need for a real NBA big man capable of starting, like Bryant was, with hopefully more D capability as we will have plenty of scoring now.

    EDIT .... wait what just saw we did get Bamba?? Pelinka's been on fire if so.

    That is probably it, but we do have multiple other 2nd rounders and a like 6 mil trade exception from the Bryant trade, so maybe still a chance to add a SF. But if not, still a great deadline for us, and the buyout market will be there.

    Yeah I think that might be it but I would love to do some kind of last trade to get a guy like Bogdan Bogdanovic if possible using some of these seconds. I don’t think we are getting Bojan.

    This article aggregated something Ramona said on TV before the Bamba trade happened.

    My God Rob Pelinka you beautiful son of a b**** you!

    I owe him an apology. My God he absolutely CRUSHED this deadline!!!

    AND he saved HAM from himself by dealing BOTH Russ AND Bev!!!

    Unbelievable turn of events man...and we still have our 2029 first round pick!! WOW.

    I don't see how we'd be able to trade for Bojan at this point, I don't think you can aggregate trade exceptions like that but I'm far from a cap expert.

    Beasley can’t be combined with other players in a trade since we just got him (and he just barely doesn’t match salary for Bogdanovic if we tried a direct swap)

    I think in theory if the Russ trade hasn’t been finalized yet, they could roll them together and figure out a creative way to do it, but I think that would get complicated.

    And honestly I’d rather just keep Beasley than trade him AND likely a first for Bogdanovic
