Omer Asik Trade. Rumors, Tweets and Updates. (Deadline Dec 20th)

Let's all be honest with ourselves here: Boston can get a better return for Rondo (assuming healthy) from other teams than Asik & Lin.

[Dramatic] If that deal went down, Ainge and his children's children's children should be exiled from the city of Boston. And Morey should finally shed his physical form and ascend as a being of pure energy. [/Dramatic]

 

lol good point.

 

The rumored deal w/ SAC posted in the Dish sounds pretty sweet for them.

 

****, this thread was made for updates on the Asik situation, not everybody's trade ideas which there is already a thread for, and guesses on who we might get which we again already have a seperate thread for.

Please quit cluttering thread everybody.

 

So who are the teams again Sixers Celtics and Hawks is there one more team or is that it ?

 

Nope but you never know who Morey is talking too... maybe Bulls.

 

Jared Zwerling ‏@JaredZwerling 18m Hearing HOU really likes Jeff Green in an Asik trade, but unlikely. Asik could be moved by Thurs. Also Waiters to CHI or PHI? Lotta chatter.

 

Would want another piece along with Green, maybe in a 3-team deal.

 

Peeled this from an apparent Sixers insider on one of their forums this morning...nothing earth shattering but worth sharing:

"As you well know if your any kind of NBA fan the Celts have thrown a major monkey wrench into our Thad/Asik deal. Who two weeks ago listed them as the top destination for him..ME...Right now it looks to be a Bass/Green for him with no picks involved..I'm also hearing rumbles of a Lin/Asik for Rondo and the Nets 15' number one. Remember that one about went down in August. Hinkie WILL NOT give any picks and Ainge will. That will be the deciding factor. I expect the Lin/Rondo one to go down...We should know by Thursday. All other teams have faded away from this deal except Atlanta who wants Asik according to my team source(s)."

yea hoopshype had somthing about ATL still in the mix for Asik

 

Hah this reminds about how we were all waiting for Dwights decision,I still think it's Gonna be Millsap

 

Someone else pulled that out of their butt earlier in this thread.

 

And I JUST got over the Ron Paul .gif nightmares too...

 

Lin/Asik for Rondo and the Nets 15' pick seems worthwhile to me - impact starting caliber player and a first rounder for two current bench players (not starting another "is rondo elite" conversation here...lets just let that one die). I think at the end of the day we trim the fat from this team and upgrade a position we've been mediocre at best this season.

 

uh oh Clutch talking about Lin lol

 

**** harden and his dominating the ball ISO bull****. He needs to stop that **** anyway. Bring on Rondo. It would be the best thing for this team and would help Harden finally learn how to play the right way.

 

Just go into Player Editor and make Greg Smiths salary match, duh.
