2018 Trade Rumours Thread (Deadline February 8th, 3pm ET)

Wait, why the hell did the Kings do that deal? Don't say "because they're the Kings". No one is that stupid.

We've been in contact about VC, cap space needs are discussed. MLSE drops its wallet too busy to look back pick it up. Sacremento takes they selves out for lunch.

The Kings intend to release Bruno Caboclo, I'm told

It would be like Wade coming back to Miami

[The Great One]

This guy is such a diva lol.

Rachel Nichols said IT's agent just said in a text in all caps that he's not coming off the bench

This is Vlade Divac were talking about.

Yeah, I get why Masai did it; it gives more wiggle room under the tax and Richardson is a controlled asset. But the only reason I can think why the Kings did it is that they don't believe in Richardson and they want to create more cap space for next year, which is retarded because Richardson is on his rookie deal

Summary of the deal: we traded a wad of previously chewed bubble gum for a kleenex with a wad of snot already in it.

Summary of the deal: we traded a wad of previously chewed bubble gum for a kleenex with a wad of snot already in it.

Two key elements:

1) Said kleenex makes 1M less than the gum this year.
2) When other GMs see snot-filled kleenex, Masai sees future star (reference draft positions of OG, Wright, Siakam and Powell, and non-draft position of FVV).

He needs a new nickname. Maybe "Mini Lavar"? My thinking is Lavar like Lavar so much that IT flies under the radar and there's one less offended Laker.

hahhaha, he is more of a diva than me

[Other Scott]

Yeah the Kings must really be done with Malachi Richardson if they're going to give up on him to save $500,000. It's a bit of a weird risk unless they're convinced he's done.

Knicks are Knicksing it up.

What's that phrase about about rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic?

Denver, New York and Dallas agreed on a three-way deal, league sources tell ESPN. Mudiay to Knicks; Devin Harris to Denver and Doug McDermott to Dallas.
