I’m holding out hope guys like Vanderbilt or Clarkson go for a kings ransom as it seems like the Suns are waiting out the Nets.
It’ll be frustrating if one of those guys could’ve been had for Crowder and a low risk future pick.
If Jones can't swoop in and get Vanderbilt and Beasley then he can share an Uber out of town with Sarver. He needs to move on from waiting on KD and his tore up knee and start making some moves to make this team better. The Nets owner is a piece of trash and I wouldn't trust him to follow through on a deal anyway.

Beasley doesn’t do much for me unless it’s for Crowder and a 2nd round pick at most.
We haven’t heard rumors involving Clarkson, so that’s probably just wishful thinking on my part.

One thing I wondered about is, maybe Ishbia wants to bring in "his" people, so he kind of intentionally doesn't do much this trade deadline, which causes people to be mad at James Jones and want a new GM. That's probably overthinking it, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Ishbia kind of clean house and put a bunch of "his" people in.

Ishbia really seems to think this team is already very good so I'm not anticipating anything aside from Crowder going for peanuts. I think the big moves will be in the off-season.
I think you're right.

We are pretty damn good considering where we are with all the injuries, gearing up for the playoffs. Just give me something average at a minimum for Crowder and I'll be happy.

Kinda saw it coming. James Jones better have something up his sleeve because buying out Crowder would be ridiculous.

Of course us fans are always looking for some excitement. Would be nice to shore up PF and/or PG though. Are they counting on Payne coming back? We sure haven't heard any details as to why he's been out so long. Shamet out is probably addition by subtraction. But yeah, at least replace Crowder with something that helps us out at the PF position where he was playing.

Agreed. What in the world is going on with Payne? He's completely unreliable and even when he does play, he's erratic and inconsistent.

I’m 99% certain Crowder gets traded but in the 1% chance he doesn’t…fuck Jae Crowder and fuck a buyout, I’d hold his ass for the whole year. Idgaf.

Why is it weird? I’m sure the whole league has called them about Durant in the last 48 hours.

It just feels like he asked out to be traded to Phoenix again and nets trying to get traded ahead before it leaks out
Ah, I don’t think so. That’s your hopes and dreams leaking into the narrative.
I knew my spider senses were tingling for a reason

Ok i hope they’re not done making moves, we still need a starting 4 or 3 and D guy. And backcourt needs a 3rd guard. Oof. Anybody need a saric?

James Jones hasn't shown interest in a starting power forward in about two years. I don't think he is going to start now.

They gotta get someone, Craig is a good hustle guy but that spot definitely needs an upgrade
