    Sure, but are we considering all those awful/meaningless trades like Cunningham for Vaughn, Mudiay for Devin Harris/McDermott, Babbit for White and Payton for a 2nd rounder? If so yes, it wasn't slow, but eh...outside of the Cavs trades nothing worth some discussion happened to me.

    Let me reiterate this point once again: you can never have enough playmakers. Also you can never have enough big wings. We may not "need need" Joe but its just ridiculous to think he wouldn't come in handy.

    This, we don't need to run Harden and Paul to the ground if we expect to make a deep run in the playoffs.

    He would be a nice luxury to have, considering some of the injuries we've had this year. Unfortunately, I don't think he is looking to just ride a contender's coattails without actually contributing.

    True, there did up being 12 trades. How many were actually relevant though? 4-5? We were a Dan Gilbert hesitation away from having a very boring deadline. Again, just sharing what I hear, and not telling you what will happen. It's up to Joe Johnson where he signs.

    When is the buyout deadline again? Add Bogut, Chandler, or Lopez and call it a season.

    I still expect Ryno to get around 25 mpg, at least during the regular season

    Haha. I love this. He names 3 teams among favorites, and then gives Rockets 15-20% chance. Among favorites would imply there are even more teams, but even if it was ONLY those 3 teams, that would give them about 26% chance each evenly. So our probability ain't too shabby. ANALYTICS!

    I don't really want Lopez. The fact he wants to stay on the Lakers tells me everything I need to know about his priorities and competitiveness.
