    Chicago is getting away with high way robbery and Sacramento is getting killed.

    Martin injured again. Like the Rockets need to add more injury prone players...

    Hmmm this is one of those weird trades that might be about equal in terms of talent but both teams would reject because it's basically a lateral deal.

    It is highly likely that a trade is going down by tomorrow night. Tonight's game may be Terrence's last in a Rockets uni.

    I think that Minny will say no and hang up the phone.

    ofc and it doesn't need any inside sauce to say this. If a trade goes down by tomorrow night then we can reflip it but later we can't.

    Smart active Gms like Morrey should make trades in this time.

    So, if it's highly likely - you must either be sitting next to Plowman and/or believe you have actual details. If so, give us your best cryptic message.

    With that being said - I call BS.

    He doesn't have to have any actual sources. Only use logic and a little knowledge of Morrey's methods.

    It's highly likely that a trade will happen by 18 December.
    And it will likely involve Jones most of anyone else becaue Jones is the easiest to trade out of Lawson or the rest of our scrubs. (that are trade elligible).
    A easy one contract 2 way trade is easier and faster to complete than a complex one.

    Haha haven't you said that Jones will be gone at every possible trade deadline?

    Now in a sense I don't disagree with you, one of the two (he or D Mo) have to go before the end of the year. And Jones is the logical one to trade.

    But there's two things to consider (which are kind of related):

    1) This is a sell low moment. Morey isn't keen on that.

    2) There's no urgency to trade Jones right this minute. We don't have a legitimate backup PF, people will figure out the Capela/Dwight lineups sooner or later, and as said before, his value is as low as it's ever been. I bet they either let him regain his value before trading, or they dangle Harrell as bait for an upgrade off the bench (in an other thread, cyberX mentioned a bench scorer, which makes perfect sense).

    So, while I agree that it's POSSIBLE that Jones would be traded, I don't see it happening now. Maybe at the deadline.
