I wonder how much of the "nope Butler" talk is more about his injury history and age than the rumored attitude problems.

For the Nets, it’s all 3.

And considering the price tag for him(we were on his list of teams he wanted to get traded to and of course they were big market teams with money), I’m still against it like I was back in September.

Re: 2018-19 Transaction Thread

I'm trying to figure out who the Lakers move off the rotation if they reach an agreement for a player in the buyout market.

Lonoz, Rondo, KCP, Ingram, Hart, LeBron, Lance, Kuz, JaVale, Tyson, Bullock, Muscala, Wagner - that's 13 guys..

Obviously Wagner probably falls out for whoever they add, but I feel like they should just waive Bonga and consider adding two guys. Can always move Muscala, Bullock out of rotation if need be (even though they just traded for them), or just have a replacement for times like now when Lonzo is out.

Melo, Morris, R Lopez, Kaminsky, Deandre Jordan, Mack, Ellington, Kanter, McLemore, Stauskas..

A few options there.

Like Pack said I'm sure all 3 play a role, on top of the fact that he's likely "peaked". I realize he can still make small improvements, but he's likely not reaching the type of play Kawhi and PG have now reached.

We're not planning to buy out DJ according to Marc Stein.

From what I've read, the Knicks may consider bringing him back. I assume if the price is right and he helps bring in a certain someone.

According to Zach Lowe, the Nets almost sent Allen Crabbe and that Nuggets 1st rd pick to Memphis for Jamychal Green and Garrett Temple but Memphis turned it down after not wanting to pick up Crabbe’s $18 Mil salary for next year(he has a player option for next year).

I’d rather keep and try to find someone to take him in the offseason or just let his contract run out since it only has a year left on it.

Good players, but a first will have more value in the off-season. Especially since Green has been injured. Not really the same yet.

Cool things from Gasol trade I never knew. He waived his 1.3m trade kicker to help Raptors with luxury tax. It made 0 difference in trade happening and he didn't have to do it but he wanted to.

Also, one of Raptors assistant coaches was his coach on team Spain, so they know each other really well.

I can honestly see DJ being liked here a lot.

I think Philly success mainly depends on Jimmy Butler. Thats if he is willing to make sacrifices to his game. He isn't really a spot up shooter. So he needs to willing to take high percentage shots when he does get touches. If he can focus more on defense. Than sky's the limit. But I don't believe anyones really touching a healthy Warriors in the Finals.
If I'm 76ers, I'm keeping Harris and letting Butler walk in FA. Harris is a great fit between Embiid and Simmons. I feel Butler has peaked and don't know if he is willing to be "one of the guys" rather than the main guy. Plus I don't think JJ is staying. So I would use Cap to fill out roster

Raptors sign McLemore to a 10 day contract.

Re: 2018-19 Transaction Thread

The more I think about Fultz being in Orlando the more I love it. Takes him out of what is now a serious situation in Philly and into a relatively stress free environment in a city where sports aren’t even the main attraction. For him, it’s perfect. For the teams too. Philly can focus their attentions back to solely on winning and Orlando can try to get the kind of production we all believe Kelle can give.

Re: 2018-19 Transaction Thread

I don't like it (even if I do agree that a low pressure situation is best for him), it seems Orlando has a hard time developing players: Oladipo, Aaron Gordon, Elfrid Payton etc.
