WOW...Atlanta really wanted to get rid of Schroder BAD!!!

they get a "protected 2022 first round pick and have to send Muscala to OKC with him!!


c-rist what were they thinking when they re-signed Schroder last year?

Fyi after the big contract was signed he was involved in a brawl down here.

Since then things have headed south.  They drafted Young and acquired Lin

NBA Rumors: Thunder Trade Carmelo Anthony To Hawks In Multi-Player Deal

Carmelo Anthony has a new NBA team, but he might not be with them for long. The Oklahoma City Thunder traded Anthony and a protected 2022 first-round draft pick to the Atlanta Hawks on Thursday in exchange for Dennis Schroder and Mike Muscala. Here are the protections on the pick, per ESPN’s Royce Young: The pick the Thunder are sending the Hawks is 2022 lottery protected first rounder (1-14). If it doesn’t convey, it’ll become two second rounders. — Royce Young (@royceyoung) July 19, 2018 The Philadelphia 76ers also are involved in this trade as a third team, as per Yahoo! Sports’ Shams Charania. Sources: As part of multi-team Carmelo Anthony/Dennis Schröder deal, Atlanta's Mike Muscala will go to Philadelphia, 76ers' Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot will be traded to Oklahoma City and 76ers' Justin Anderson to Atlanta. — Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) July 19, 2018 Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN was the first to report the trade, and he also added details on the buyout Anthony likely will work out with the Hawks. Anthony will get his entire $27.9M in the buyout and waiver with Hawks. It could take a few days to work thru logistics on trade. 'Melo met with Rockets and Heat in Las Vegas. Again, Rockets are the frontrunner. https://t.co/2rbDZ7vUu1 — Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) July 19, 2018 Anthony likely will sign with a contender if he’s bought, which would allow him to chase the NBA championship that has eluded him in his 15 pro seasons. The 34-year-old forward averaged 16.2 points in 78 games for the Thunder last season. It was the first time in his career that he scored less than 20 points per game in a single season.

I like it. Sixers duplicate Holmes with Muscala and give up their 2 most advanced 3 and D prospects.

This guy is not too old to help some playoff team, but he may finally have to check his ego at the door to get a real chance at a ring in Houston. His act has grown very tiring, and I am very happy that he has never been a Boston Celtic.

Atlanta is doing its own "Process".

Just what Houston needs, another player who stops the ball and can't play defense....LOL

if he goes there D'Antoni may not last the season.
