Re: TRADE DEADLINE THREAD - FEBRUARY 23RD

Sources: If Sixers do not receive Mavs top-18 protected pick this season, it converts to 2 2nd-round picks: Mavs 2nds in 2017 and 2018.

Why not?

I do not think Bogut is better than Amir Johnson.
Bogut has almost no offensive game.
He's very slow and immobile.

Dboss,

That was TJ's opinion, not mine.

Furthermore I've heard Amir's name mentioned in the Butler trade rumor so he might be gone.

The Boston Celtics once again are right in the thick of things.

Several rival NBA teams believe the Celtics could land Indiana Pacers forward Paul George in a trade, ESPN’s Marc Stein reported Thursday.

Marc Stein ✔ @ESPNSteinLine
Can echo what @WindhorstESPN just said on @SportsCenter: More than a few rival teams out there think Boston has a shot at Paul George today.

Boston is believed to be in talks with Indiana involving the All-Star forward and reportedly has discussed trading the rights to its 2017 Brooklyn Nets first-round pick. Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports’ “The Vertical” reported Thursday afternoon that no deal is imminent, but talks very much are alive.

Adrian Wojnarowski ✔ @WojVerticalNBA
Sources: Less than two hours until the NBA Trade Deadline, but no significant traction for Boston on Jimmy Butler or Paul George deals. Yet.

Meanwhile, ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reports the Pacers are involved in other trade talks, possibility to make room for players who could come their way in a blockbuster involving George.

Pacers involved in talks with teams potentially to clear roster spots, sources say. Teams suspect might be related to Celtics talks

These developments are quite the departure from 24 hours ago, when reports surfaced that Indiana didn’t want to trade George at all.

I wonder why DA made no apparent attempt to get Noel.

I can understand why no Serge given that his production is on the decline but Noel is a 7-10 year player.

Thoughts?

Dboss,

New contract for Noel next year. Danny wants his cap space for big game hunting, if he doesn't land someone big in the next hour.

Noel gifted long athletic PF but guess what?

He cannot shoot from range. If he could I do not see how DA would not make a run at him.

Per @Adrian Wojnarowski, both Brooklyn picks are available in potential deal for Butler/George. Teams aren't close to completing trade, though.

Woj just said on the Vertical live show the Cs have had no traction with Bulls or Pacers, which is in line with what I've heard for 2 days.

MY NOTE: Maybe the reason for no traction was because Danny didn't want to give up Nets picks or Crowder, but now he is?
