So, after an exciting few days, I figure we might as well just create a thread for all of the trade deadline  actionSo, the first major domino already fell this weekend, as Boogie Cousins was traded to the Pelicans in a hilariously dumb deal  Right now, there is a lot of smoke out there and a number of superstars and not so super stars being discussed as possible candidates to move: Carmelo Anthony:  A (barely) all-star on the knicks, Carmelo's best days are probably in the past, but he is still a major name and there is some interest Possible landing spots: Celtics, Clippers Paul George:  Very much a star, but with his contract ending in the near future, the Pacers might decide that it isn't worth risking him bolting and trade him. Probably won't happen, but who knows Possible landing spots: Celtics, [Your favorite team here] Andre Drummond:  A guy who everyone was convinced was gonna be a bust, who somehow wasn't. Very large big man, who can't make free throws. Hasn't really taken the kind of step people expected this season Possible landing spots: Celtics (Feel like I'm sensing a theme), Raptors Derrick Rose:  Turns out he isn't back, but he is on an expiring contract, and for god knows what reason, Thibs seems interesting in reuniting with him Possible landing spots: Timberwolves Jimmy Butler:  Basically, the Bulls front office hates him because the Bulls are dumb as poo poo, was almost traded during the draft Possible landing spots: Celtics, Wolves Louis Williams:  Possible landing spots: Cavs, Raptors, Wizards, Hornets, Pelicans, Rockets Traded to the Rockets [Your Favorite Player]  Because your favorite team hates you, and want to make you suffer, and the media knows the rumors will get page views Possible landing spots: [Your Least Favorite Team] Other names with rumors circulating around them: Brook Lopez Damian Lillard Terrence Jones Jahlil Okafor Important twitter accounts to follow: https://twitter.com/WojVerticalNBA EDIT: Trades that have occurred https://twitter.com/WojVerticalNBA/status/834201218608152577 https://twitter.com/WojVerticalNBA/status/834507803050000384 https://twitter.com/WojVerticalNBA/status/834560029189615617 https://twitter.com/WojVerticalNBA/status/834806620102197248 https://twitter.com/WojVerticalNBA/status/834847614424248320 The Glumslinger fucked around with this message at 20:31 on Feb 23, 2017 |

Corey Brewer Great, scrappy small forward with plenty of intangibles. Scored 51 points in a game once! Destinations: God willing, somewhere other than the Rockets

I wonder whether some team gets a better return for Jahlil Okafor, Lou Williams, or Bojan Bogdanovich than what the Kings got for Boogie.

so long Brew, while I disliked basically everything about the way you play you seem like a nice guy and you delivered the best rockets playoff performance in years https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pczpXgjFuu0 trigger warning for clippers fans

Not really sure what the point of this one is for the Lakers. Brewer's contract runs through the end of next year and the value of a pick in the #28-30 range is negligible unless you can pull competent players out of your rear end there like the Spurs.

The Williams trade is fine. The Lakers were dead set on turning him into s first rounder. If this is the only trade where one was offered then so be it.

We have this Nick Young... No seriously, he is having a career year and is on a really cheap contract

I think someone posted in the N/V that the Boogie deal depressed the market heavily because no one wants to be the team that pays more for a rotation guy than what NOLA paid for Boogie

Magic strikes me as the kind of guy who'd be an MJ-like NBA executive based on his completely generic Tweetering about the Lakers. My favorite: "The #2 pick is good because you can get a good player with it." I wonder who his Adam Morrison will be.
