    Nothing "big" will happen I think that's a given but Kaman should be on the move

    Some fun quotes from the 2015 S2 trade thread -

    It's interesting what a year's hindsight brings. I'd say CJ, Crabbe, and perhaps Barton were undervalued (by some).

    It's sounding like this year the Blazers won't be involved in any trades that involve young, unproven talent. Leonard and Kaman are the names most often thrown around. There's not much mystery with those two.

    I'm good with this. Everyone's always hoping for a big trade, but this year, I'm okay with being patient.

    Kings fire their assistant coach and go after Pau Gasol in a final, desperate push for the playoffs with only 25 games left.

    smh. Good lord, that team has no direction. Worst run organization in the league. A league that contains the likes of the Brooklyn Nets. ugh. Makes me sad for Kings fans.

    For a 35 yr old who will probably become a free agent next year. Vivek and Vlade are running that franchise into the ground.

    Because they give him a $20mil assistant coaching job and save $40 mil in tax.

    Some final thoughts entering deadline day:

    Lance Stephenson may be traded.
    If he is, it is likely he will be waived.
    If he is waived, he will be available.

    Lance is Lillard's age.
    If we trade Hendo for draft picks (for example), we could have a roster spot open.

    Can Lance be trained. Would we want to try?

    Guy is talented but a head case. If it was any year where we might have a chance at making a splash in the playoffs i'd say no in a second, but a year like this where if we make the playoffs we are likely facing SA or GSW then I say sure, lets see if we can turn him around and if we can't its not costing us much to waive his ass.

    I mean if he wanted to come here, sure. When he is on his game he is Batum-like. However, I think he would find his way back to Indy somehow.

    No. Its similar to Larry Sanders.

    This is the type of deal to look at in the summer if you have time to work with him and see how he fits with the team.

    There isn't enough practice time to get him up to speed during the season. I'd honestly rather see baseball Pat play minutes if it came to that.
