NBA: NBA Trade deadline rumors

[Michael Jordan.]

Fansided:

The NBA trade deadline is approaching fast which means that there will be deals starting to be discussed that could continue to take shape over the next 72 hours. One such deal could be a three-way trade between the Toronto Raptors, New York Knicks and Atlanta Hawks.

According to Ian Begley from ESPNNewYork.com, the deal would involve Kyle Lowry going to the Knicks, Jeff Teague going to the Raptors and Iman Shumpert heading to the Hawks, among other considerations changing hands. Begley reports that the talks are just in the preliminary stages and haven’t advanced yet.

League sources say a scenario in which Teague ends up in Toronto, Shumpert goes to Atlanta and Lowry winds up in New York has been discussed. Another scenario could have Teague ending up in New York. The conversations are believed to be preliminary and have not reached an advanced stage.
Of course, this doesn’t mean a trade will happen, but we’ve seen these types of deals move quickly in the NBA. With 72 hours to go until the deadline, this is the scenario to keep an eye on as it could end up being a blockbuster.

More news regarding Lowry and New York:

According to Ian Begley from ESPNNewYork.com, the Knicks are offering up Iman Shumpert, Raymond Felton and Beno Udrih both individually and as a package.

The Knicks are offering packages including Iman Shumpert, Raymond Felton and Beno Udrih, sources say. They have been reluctant to include sharp-shooting rookie Tim Hardaway Jr. or a future first-round draft pick in any deal. One of those two pieces are believed to be a prerequisite for Toronto to consider giving up Lowry.

[Fansided]Could Gordon be traded?

According to Sean Deveney, not only are the Pelicans open to moving Gordon, they’re willing to absorb salary if a trade nets them a big man in the process.

But the Pelicans are eager to add a big man to play next to Anthony Davis, and would be willing to take on salary if it meant shipping Gordon out.

[Clipper Nation]

All these rumors and nothing will happen, per the usual.... I'd like to see the Clippers somehow swing a deal for Spencer Hawes, but the Sixers' asking price is delusional, tbh...

I'm just on my knees praying the Spurs stand pat.

Spurs have the most to lose from standing idly by at the deadline...with this being Duncan's last year they'll try to pull off a key move. Hopefully Gasol finally hits the bricks

& if he doesn't brace yourself for an extension under an extended fawning that will make you want to cry. it's gonna be touch & go till the end of the week. Gird your loinage, Deads.

Word on the street is flop city is putting together a package for Kyrie Irving just to have back to back all star mvp's

I just have no hope in the idea that the Spurs make a move before the trade deadline. It's not in their DNA. If they make a serious impactful move, I'd be pleasantly surprised.

I smell something big from you guys, Addict. Something profound & transcending.

They have no pieces that would get anything in return. Their chance to upgrade was in the summer.

Me too...like I said, Duncan's swan song. Might be a 3-team deal or something else, but it'll happen.

Splitter is kind of appealing...set free from the Popster he might sink like a lead weight, or, blossom like a summer squash.

Sounds like jinx talk to me, and that I understand. But just look at the history, that's one thing they don't know how to handle despite all the front office fellatio that takes place in regards to the Spurs.

I ain't been this nervous since "Dice" was indecisive. I was so glad when he went away.

That scrub belongs in the D league or overseas. It says a lot about the quality of euro ball when a scrub of that magnitude wins an mvp award.

No one is trading for Splitter and that contract.

No. I don't do the jinx , Addict. I might peek thru my fingers during the games and wait out by the street light for the kids to signal me with the porch light, but, I'm an adult.

Kawhi, Patty, and Manu to the Lakers for Steve Nash. Book it.

A funny deal in retrospect, but bigs are so incredibly overvalued in this league. His value plummeted with the LeBron rejection in the Finals--that moment just scremaed " ." Another foreign softy that's mentally and physically weak.

Eh, as if the act of a jinx solely belongs to those of the adult kind. But back to the topic at hand, I just don't see anything of significance. It's just not in their DNA. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see it.
