Lots of smoke about the Heat potentially making Tyler Herro available in a deal for Jrue Holiday.

Yea, let's make that happen!

[Cnasty]

Hate it.

Unless this 100% guarantees Giannis is coming which it doesn’t.

Stop it Riles.

[nick]

Can't wait for NBA to get going again. I love football, but there are so many 'blah' games. I feel like there are at least 3 games every week that are must sees for me in the NBA.

[nick]

The nba has 0 meaningful games til the playoffs :s

[nick]

When Victor Oladipo was playing the Raps, Heat and Knicks, he asked them if he could play for their team infront of Pacers. Lol. What a loser

[shel311]

Lots of smoke about Harden pushing too force a trade, wanting to go to the Nets.

[wdoupis]

Woj reporting CP3 heading to the Suns for Oubre, Rubio, and 22 first rounder. Some other minor pieces but that is the bulk.

This Suns team should be really fun

[nick]

beloved CP3 on his 40th team

[shel311]

Booker/Ayton/Paul - That's a solid 3 there.

Shams bomb!

Rockets star James Harden wants to be on a contender elsewhere, and Brooklyn and Philadelphia are believed to be his top desired trade destinations, sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium.

Houston is fully comfortable keeping Harden and Russell Westbrook into the season.

[Cnasty]

Jrue to the Bucks

[nick]

Harden turned down 50/yr to be added to his contract cause he wants to be traded.. lol holy fuck

As Harden's conversations with the Nets stars Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving ramped up in recent weeks on the West Coast, sources say the Rockets made a pitch for him to sign the maximum allowable extension -- two years and $103 million on top of the remaining three years, $133 million on his current deal.

[wdoupis]

Bucks get Jrue and Bogdanovic. Big night in Milwaukee and they are much better on paper

[wdoupis]

Portland gives Ariza and 2 firsts for Robert Covington. Can’t see that making Harden happy but that also is way more than I thought Covington was worth.

[shel311]

The picks finalized on the Jrue to Bucks deal:

2020 1st (via IND)
2024 right to swap
2025 1st unprotected
2026 right to swap
2027 1st unprotected


That's a heck of a haul given how far out into the future these picks are, much more valuable.

Crushing it!

[shel311]

These ain't the most reliable sources...at all. But dammit the drama from today is off the charts!

Ric Bucher(grossss) reported that Harden wants out because the owner is a MAGA dude.

Some blue checkmark Nets beat writer is reporting there's a verbal agreement on a Harden to BKN trade.

Chris Broussard stating that KD is on board with bringing over Harden, but Kyrie is not.



NBA..it's fantastic!!!
