    Ainge is cheap. He doesn't want to give up good value but he wants a star in return. All he does is hoard assets.

    There are always a few trades that trickle in after the deadline.

    They have to be turned into the league office in time, but the news leaks out after.

    Hope we can get Bogut. He's an ******* but he would be huge here.

    Isn't that pick from Brooklyn unprotected? If so, it very well could be a superstar better than George.

    Correct, but a PG trade would have made more waves I think.

    so with 2 roster spots opened.

    1. Wiltjer will get some burns.
    2. Sign a buyout and keep a spot open for flexibility.

    And that's a wrap lol. Good. PG/Horford/Thomas/Crowder would be scary to guard.

    Jesus, even the lowly Knicks don't want Rubio that much because of his injury history.

    What do the open spots have to do with Wiltjer?

    Morey is really loading up on this offer for Bogut. If the guy turns Houston down despite being offered more money twice in the same year, he might become my least favorite player in the league...

    The word from Amick that Paul George is "hell bent" on getting to the Lakers would make it hard for me to get on board with dealing a high lottery pick for him.

    He can at least have a chance to play in some garbage time which by default we had given to KJ and Ennis?

    If Tyson Chandler's bought out, who would you rather have: Chandler or Bogut?

    I think Morey has gotten word that from Bogut's people possibly that he'll sign here if they pay him the most. Maybe...
