Assume westbrook gets bought out by utah but surely they can get more than just a future 1st for taking on westbrook and sending out conley

Horrific deal for Utah that. With the way Conleys playing and his decent salary when compared to others they could get a future 1st and take on like 10 mill less in salary then Russ's buyout easily

Im also not sure why they would want to get rid of Conley in any way myself. Will have value next year as a expiring so can afford to keep tight and get a better deal

Philly at home should be a cracker.

Conley at the Wolves is a better fit and mix for them than D-Lo, who to be fair, has been playing okay lately

Unless Kevin Durant joining nothing is fixing the Wolves.

Dont get why Wizards are persisting with Porzingis. Time to move him on and give Kuzma everything he wants

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Poor opening quarter by Boston, Blake Griffin started cooking but we kept on turning the ball over and making poor offensive choices.

Happily The Sixers have taken way too many foolish low percentage 3 point shots and somehow we lead by 3 !

How the **** are Lakers continously getting these trades? Westbrook is in no way absolutely no way category of having that many picks/players traded for him. He’s a 6th man these days. 35 years old.
Pretty sure Lakers add more to these trades outside of the official.

Eh. AD and Lebron isn’t going to be carrying this team much longer

No chance. Still enough in the cap for Kuzma and Porzingis. Kuzma will get everything he wants. Offloaded Hachimura to allow this.
Would very much love Beal to just move on. Super max for a bench/back up All Star game player. Nuts

Utah???? Wtf?

Lakers are tampering/dealing somewhere here. Westbrook for three players. Someone’s on the pipe

Lauris next out the door.

Utah are sensible. Conley’s contract was horrific

Westbrick an expiring deal, Conley and Beasley not.

(Actually Beasley a team option for next year. Still, they don't have to pay Conley 24m next year.)

Most likely but league will let it slide.

 

[Iceman!]

Westbrick an expiring deal, Conley and Beasley not.

you gave up two decent rotation players to get back a negative asset with only one protected first coming back? So you can have free cap space as a tanking team in Utah? I mean I guess it might work but I don’t rate it

Luke Kornet just made Embiid his bitch !!!!

Clips I get, Bulls....why?

 

[DT_35]

Is there a sniper in the crowd? Embiid went flying

 

[kozi]

I get the thinking but it's still horrible for Utah. Nowhere near enough future compensation, Lakers making out like bandits

I want some of whatever the Bulls are smoking if they're serious about Westbrook

 

[Memphis]

So basically most teams will have him after a buyout lol.

 

[Memphis]

Clips I get, Bulls....why?

Let’s be honest bulls front office have no idea what they want.

No direction no plan whatsoever.
