The Epic 2023 Trade Deadline Thread

I was kidding. Raising the possibility that they are shaping the roster for their future long term coach

With so many teams NEEDING to make moves, I’m surprised more moves haven’t already been made.

Especially with Kyrie being moved early, the big moves normally jump start the smaller ones since teams don’t have to wait for the big contracts anymore.

Maybe there’s a couple mega deals being worked out and trying to connect multiple teams to create the most complicated deal in NBA history. Or maybe every team is a bunch of procrastinators waiting for the deadline to get here first.

But won’t they think of me and MY needs? I’m bored, entertain me with trades now dammit!

It’s the KD possibility. I am sure teams are exhausting that first before moving anything of meaning

Perhaps this is clogging up the lane

So since the Kings want Mason. Can we bring back Malik please?

This gif gets me everytime

I am hoping that is just clogging up the lane and not closing it. These teams are all teams rumored to be interested in our guys. We will see what happens

Yeah they did.

Reddish to Blazers; Hart to Knicks.

I’m bummed that we’re never part of these. Gone are the days we get a Josh McBob for a 6 piece of tenders and an order of botato rounds.

We’ve got to wait until all the pieces have fallen and then get the scraps… like we always do. Always waiting for the best bargain. Super frustrating.

I honestly have followed us the least I ever have this season. After the rehiring of Clifford’s bum ass and the draft night punt of the 13th pick, where many of us, myself included, wanted Duren, only to give him to Detroit for literally nothing, then took another big at 15 who isnt even with our active 15 most of the time, I just kind of threw my hands up. We have been spinning our wheels for years. We get a great piece to build around in Melo, and then we do garbage like we did draft night. Then we hire back a coach we already fired, in part for lacking creativity and continuously playing bum ass vets over young guys, thus them never developing - and here we are again. We didnt just punt the 13th pick, we also punted this whole season with those moves… and it will literally be for nothing, because we’re not getting the #1 pick, nor are we getting Viktor W. We just wont. We never do. And its this constant abusive cycle of us hoping and then getting absolutely fucking nothing for it. Same with this trade deadline. All these rumors, all these whispers, and it will amount to fucking nothing. Even if we do a trade, we’ll find a way to fuck ourselves in a way that only this cursed ass franchise could.

Sorry to vent, i’m just fucking tired of the bullshit.

I totally agree but Mark Williams has been playing a good bit these last few months. Definitely a good pick there. 13th pick trace was awful… I will never get let it down.
