i think denver's a bad matchup for dame somehow, he was mostly awful in the playoffs vs the nuggs last year iirc

denver has shut down a ton of perimeter scorers this year

stan van and iron eagle are a good broadcast combo, theyre pretty cheerful and dont say stupid stuff constantly

such a contrast to jeff vans grumpy old man routine

bam is good

What an interesting trade this turned out to be. I think I like Houston’s side the least

bam is a top 30 player

the 4 team trade happened it seems

ESPN Sources: 4-team trade agreement: Houston: Robert Covington; Atlanta: Clint Capela and Nene; Minnesota: Malik Beasley, Juancho Hernangomez, Evan Turner, ATL 1st round pick via Nets; Denver: Gerald Green, Houston FRP.

I love capella for the hawks

So who’s playing center for the rockets?

d'antoni said the other day they're willing to roll w/ their 6' 6" and under line up... i'm sure they'll find some vet at some point

I love capella for the hawks

i haven't loved this front office's moves and them trading for and then extending drummond would've been a job killing disaster, but i can't find much fault in this move

i also sort of feel like d'antoni and morey know they're not long for that franchise and are willing to push the pedal to the metal on small ball and threes

if somehow this works out they will both look like geniuses if it fails they're prob not gonna be there next year one way or another

true, could always go super whacky and play russ at the 5 or some nonsense

apparently they have the corpse of tyson chandler on that roster i guess he could play 5 minutes a game

So Denver fortifies its bench with G Shabazz Napier and F Noah Vonleh with losses of Beasley and Hernangomez. Denver will be active until Thursday's deadline at 3 PM ET.

woj is weird

jordan bell is going to houston in all this. i could say dan tony letting that guy free to run around and hunt blocks like a mad man

man this is so huge for the hawks i think. they are basically the worst rebounding team in the league this fit just makes so much sense. trae capella connection should be really solid really fast

feel like capela and collins are too similar in body type/defensive skillset to make sense longterm but just accepting capela for a mid first round pick bcuz the rockets are spazzing out is def the kind of thing they should be doing

collins is a bad defender i thought.

what does this do for denver? i assume the pick will move?

yah all they did was secure a pick. they likely have some more moves coming

The Atlanta/Denver/Houston/Minnesota trade -- 12 players -- is the biggest NBA deal since the Knicks moved Patrick Ewing to Seattle in 2000, according to ESPN's @BobbyMarks42.

sweet

juancho and beasley were gonna be FAs also

Hope this means Wiggins stays out of the bay.

we survived the day

oh man i love this for the hawks. schlenk has been sitting on picks year after year finally coaxed someone in to giving him good value for what would have been at best a late lotto pick in a weak draft year. i know very little about Capela other than that he's efficient, a good defender and not terrible on offense. he should fit nicely next to Collins

juancho and beasley were gonna be FAs also

that doesnt rationalise trading depth for less depth when the nuggets have a chance at the title

the big trade

juancho and beasley were gonna be FAs also

Nuggets definitely want to make another deal but what the hell would it be? Pelicans seem happy to keep Jrue.

cheers to atlanta jeers to houston

I don't really know what the Wolves are doing here but I never really do.

Because if something doesn't happen, they basically traded RoCo on a good contract for a protected first round pick

i don't hate them getting the denver RFAs

congrats everyone on a 4 way trade tho good stuff

lacking in star power but not without dece players
