2024 NBA Trade Deadline Day discussion

[Xiao Yao You]

Adrian Wojnarowski: The 76ers are trading Danuel House and a 2024 second-round pick via the Knicks to the Pistons, sources tell ESPN. The move gives the Sixers the salary cap cushion to sign buyout players post-deadline — including the possibility of Charlotte’s Kyle Lowry should be become available in a contract buyout, sources tell ESPN.

Says Lewis can't be traded with another player so it must be two separate deals?

[Real Men Wear Green]

Adrian Wojnarowski: The Indiana Pacers are trading Buddy Hield to the 76ers for Marcus Morris, Furkan Korkmaz and three second-round picks, sources tell ESPN.

Don't like this trade for Indy in the short term. I guess they wanted to give more minutes to Mathurin or whoever else but Hield is a shooter that any team could use.

The Oklahoma City have agreed to acquire Gordon Hayward from the Charlotte Hornets for Tre Mann and Davis Bertans.

May not be the best news for Josh Giddey, who is a similar player but doesn't shoot as well and could be the primary PT victim if Hayward is being brought in to be a vet leader.Hayward never should have left the Celtics with the way his career has gone since. He left because he wanted a bigger role but in OKC he will be asked to do the same things the Celtics wanted him to and if anything SGA is an even bigger star than Tatum, especially the Tatum that Hayward left in Boston.

Hayward has to stay on the floor first. Great pickup for them if he does. Versatile player that should be able to fit any role they need from him

Royce is most likely getting traded according to reliable sources

Knicks are making some serious moves, this is the best Knicks team in decades

we'll see. Why would Thibs play Bojan when he wouldn't play Fournier? If you don't defend you don't play

Is he a worse defender than Toody?

I'm talking about specifically in the playoffs, where it matters. Is he worse than First Round Rudy?

Wow Knicks are stacking up a deep team. After years of swinging and striking out for a big star, they finally realized depth matters more.

[FultzNationRISE]

hate to see Olynyk and Agbaji go but Hardy wouldn't play Agbaji anyway. They wanted Porter years ago. I'm sure this is all about the 1st for Danny though

Is Agbaji any good? Because unless they were really targeting him it makes no sense to me why Toronto would trade for a vet like Olynyk after they just moved OG and Siakam out of town. And even giving up a first round pick in the deal to boot.

Is Ujiri developing dementia or what?

well since Gobert was trying to guard 5 guys because Bojan, Mitchell, The Bum etc. were guarding no one yeah
