    Only if they hold up Brooklyn at gunpoint.

    John Wall is NEVER GETTING TRADED with that contract. Not even for Kevin Love.

    John Wall isn’t expected to play for the Rockets this season and it doesn’t appear any teams are willing to gamble on his contract, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski said on tonight’s “NBA Countdown.” (Hat tip to Doric Sam of Bleacher Report) “There are no plans for John Wall to play for the Rockets, and it’s becoming increasingly likely that John Wall may not play anywhere in the NBA this season because the cost of his contract right now is just too prohibitive,” Wojnarowski said

    Irving said he would retire if traded from Brooklyn

    Was bringing back Meyers a trade suggestion?

    Or a free agent signing?

    Id bring him back. Just to try to regain any value in my jersey. i think @Eastoff would also welcome this. Lol.

    Then the Rockets would definitely love to trade Wall for him.

    Everything's a rumor if you say it is.

    Look, CJ isn't going anywhere. Not while Neil is in charge. His ego is waaaaay too big to, essentially, admit his roster construction was poor by trading CJ. Remember, Neil was adamant that the roster was not the problem then proceeded to throw Stotts under the bus. You think a guy like Neil will make an about face? No fucking way.

    CJ has some value but his contract raises eyebrows. Any deal with CJ would really have to be sweetened with other assets, like first round picks. Does Portland even have any? It's going to be a long season.

    Not sure if he can say anything rite now, but he could put it on Billlups needs to adjust a bit to his ideas, on Ant improvement, great deal with bringing Powell and meeting the half way with new coach. He got options and, knowing him, he can sell it on the press conf without blinkin. CJ trade is obvious at this point. Depends how long this investigation will block it.
