After the injury to Xie Dong, the Celtics have now traded major offseason acquisition and suspected Russian spy Alex Moncova to an unnamed Western Conference team. Word is they received two first round picks and salary relief in the deal.

With the acquisition of SG Andrew Everett, OKC has added some much needed defense and veteran leadership.

Quote:

The MASTER of PANIC is at it AGAIN. Despite steadfast reports that Goulet wouldn't move the POR '24 1st and mess with the team's upcoming cap space, it seems as if Goulet has found a scenario too good to pass on. After acquiring Everett from the Spurs, the team was poised to make another splash. With the west still seemingly wide open, a bold move here by OKC could add the finishing touches to a legit playoff push.

Spurs' GM scdn was reportedly livid when he heard that the Thunder included not one, but 2 picks to the Celtics for Moncova, when he was told by Goulet he did not want to include a 1st for a 29 year old Everett only to include 2 for a 30 year old Moncova who is owed even more money than Everett. scdn responded by saying, "Helping his rapist lover again. Moncova has probably been secreast's spy this whole time gathering intel on other GM's with his ability to get picks from teams."

With a 2nd consecutive losing season looming for the Thunder, GM Goulet has gone into classic "Panic Mode" and has been making teams aware almost the entire roster is untouchable. The veteran additions of Moncova & Everett have failed to produce so it would be none to surprising to see these vets along with vets Joe Keisel & Derrick Favors find homes with contenders.

The MASTER OF PANIC has struck again. Trade negotiations with another Western Conference team swayed all over the place resulting in a MASS exodus of veteran players to make salaries match. GM Goulet is on record saying fans might not immediately like this one, but the team isn't done, so wait til Thursday before stoning him.

In a surprising turn of events, Portland has just agreed to a blockbuster deal with a Western Conference team. No reflection on the team's performance. Dealing with a lot of injuries this season, the team was ready to continue on. But just fell into something that makes sense now and going forward.

After trading away three point specialists Tim Jennings and Salvatore Fantastigas, the team faltered tremendously

Quote:

A win over a battered Blazers squad was followed by six consecutive losses post-trades; 6-12 overall

Quote:

Tom Andrews has brought some needed shotblocking to the team, but the overall outlook for the team is poor

Quote:

The team might miss the playoffs for the first time since drafting Travis Perry and Ivanos Rogic

Quote:

The one shining light for Utah is its slate of first round picks which includes selections from New Orleans and Chicago (albeit top 5 protected)

Quote:

The way things are going we might also see a lotto pick out of the Jazz in the ten to thirteen range

Quote:

Reloading through the 2024 draft is going to have to work if this Perry core is ever going to win a championship

Teams are getting carried away with options if they're putting em in extensions for young players. A la Prince and Gordon.

The Lions have dealt backup big man Frank Collins to the Detroit Pistons along with their upcoming first round selection for Gvidas Petrauskas.

Quote:

The hope is that Petrauskas will improve the defensive rebounding and defence of the Lions in general.

Quote:

While Petrauskas does not block a single shot, the Lions average 5 more a game than their opponent, so management is assuming that will not be a huge problem.

Quote:

Lastly, by trading their first rounder in a deal to upgrade, the Lions save precious salary as they inch closer to the Hard Cap.

Despite a weak schedule to end the season where the team could make up some ground, GM Goulet is calling for PT for Euro Import Jukka Heinonen.

Quote:

Sources say coach Van Gundy will go with a starting 5 of Bishop, Brown, Harvey, Ozer, and Mikhailov when the big russian returns from injury.

Quote:

Coach VG is hoping to get more defense at the 2/3 with Yoruba now playing the role of 3rd big. Putting Ozer at PF might end up being a better way of hiding his porous defense since Harvey will now be allowed to better defend the 3, but none of these moves will sure up the team's TO and foul problems which have plagued them all season.

Quote:

Epic fail GM Goulet.
