    If I had to guess, Miami is out because they are focused on bringing in Lowry instead with a 2yr extension. It was never going to be a Herro/Robinson trade anyway. I'm not sure that the 1sts the front office expected are on the table, but multiple 2nds are with a guy like OPJ. Warriors are dangling Oubre/Wiggins out there. Clippers want a real point guard and would move on from Sweet Lou/Bev. Nets are trying to flip Dinwiddie/Shamet into something more valuable short term. Rockets have been interested in Dinwiddie. Lakers also may move on from Schroder. Trent Jr is an interesting one packaged with guys like Hood. The hours are winding down. It will be interesting how it all plays out, but I definitely expect him to be moved since he's a goner this offseason if not.

    Rockets interested in Dinwiddie confuses me... I’m sure the Nets would’ve thrown him into the James Harden deal... why didn’t we demand for him to be a part of the package if we want him? Weird.

    Clippers can have John Wall and we can route Marcus Morris long contract to the Nets so they can get more firepower for Spencers contract.

    Tricky to work with the Clippers since they are hard capped.

    I bet McLemore will just get released. He has been absolutely dreadful these last few months. NBA career may be over.

    Goes to show Harden can make anyone look like a decent NBA player.

    Also this says maybe Prince and Cedi. Didn't they have a chance at keeping prince as well? LOL. Man this is some either bogus rumors or management is back tracking old commodities to save face. Read here ------->

    I also want to give MDA credit for putting Ben in a position to succeed and not giving up on him. Remember the few first months as a Rocket last year, his shooting was just dreadful? MDA never yanked him from the line up though and even stated in press conferences that his shooting would come back.

    Silas try to make Ben something he was not and he completely lost his confidence this year.

    Lowry, McLemore to Heat
    -Lowry, Butler, Bam is a legit 3 and McLemore replaces the shooting of Robinson. This team is ready for a title run.
    Powell, Olynyk to Rockets
    -Powell is a nice addition to the core if they can resign him. Olynyk is a salary match move but will solidify our rotation at least for this season.
    Oladipo, Robinson, Igoudala to Raptors
    -Oladipo can finally sing Drake to sleep at night or whatever. He and Robinson are a decent haul for exiting Lowry and Powell.

    Nahhh he'll join the nets for pennies and Harden will make him look like a stud again. Maybe even Philly. Morey will pay him Cheese Steaks.

    Only reason I don't like this trade is you might be getting Powell for just this season and he may help you win your way out of a lottery pick. Which essentially would be we land like the 6th pick which goes to Miami and we get their pick in the 20s. Now you might do that if you can get Powell long term but as a rental, thay would suck.
