deal coming soon...(merged)

I don't post these types of things in the general forum usually, in fact I don't think I ever have. But......well, get ready for some fireworks on the trade front.

Go ahead and speculate.

Re: deal coming soon

my speculation would be one of 2 teams. maybe 3

I think the Zach to Boston for the #5 and filler makes the most sense for both teams. Even if the filer is Theo

I can also see Zach + ? going to Memphis for the #4 and Mike Miller and filler



but Atlanta still seems like a very likely candidate as well... I am just not sure in what form it will be

Re: deal coming soon

Odd timing. The trade deadline has already passed, right?

So aren't trades unavailable until after the NBA Finals end?

Yes, I don't think you can trade until the draft now.

Re: deal coming soon

From Larry coon regarding when players can't be traded.

Quote:
When the trading deadline has passed. Teams are free to make trades again once their season has ended, but cannot trade players whose contracts are ending or could end due to an option or ETO.

Re: deal coming soon

Spill it, mm.

You know something we don't? Considering we have four second rounders, I thought deal was inevitable, but not exactly fireworks worthy.

When you say 'get ready', I think 'news within a day or a couple of days'. Is this a correct assumption?
