    Williams is great when healthy, but I think it would be a complete failure if he’s not traded tonight

    It sounds like a lot depends on who is available where. Malc gets moved at some point, but a team may prefer another player depending on who is available for them as well.

    The teams with the most 'juice' around them for a potential move continues to be HOU, SA and MEM.

    I would be shocked if anyone trades for him until they see him playing a bit. Gut feeling, before this happens, any trade that happens with him is for shit in a box and they don't even bother to include the cover to the box.

    You guys do realize some trades might have to wait for the new league year to start -- right ?

    The only team that has been linked to Grant that pretty much has to get a deal done in the next couple days before the new league year is the Mavs cause of the CBA.

    We the fans might have to be a little more patient in terms of trades UNLESS we use a vet to trade up in the draft.

    They can submit those trades right now. So if an agreement is met that will be consummated on the new league year... we will hear about it.

    The league will say players to be named later and Woj or Shams will report who the players are.

    Now maybe Houston can switch their focus to Jeremi Grant?

    Also some teams have an actual impetus to trade now before the turn of the season on July 1 due to second apron hell (cough: Dallas).

    Perhaps @Ripcity4life77 is the one that needs to realize things before talking down to people.

    I am trying to be nice and I was not trying to talk down to people

    I think since I have been back I have not been an asshole now that should not get any applause credit or whatever but I do realize before I left I was a total ass to alot of members of the forum.

    Illmatic - if you have a problem with me tell me cause others do similar things and do not get called out

    I prefer us to trade our vets for future draft assets like what the Nets did

    Fairly certain I have red that any moves made after end of season, but before July 1st will still qualify teams to the different aprons

    The only thing Cronin will kill is the dreams of any Blazer fan hoping for significant trades to dramatically reshape this team.

    Hadn't heard that, thanks for the update.

    That actually makes a ton of sense, they probably fixed that with the new CBA. It would be a bit of a apron loophole if teams could do the trade a few days earlier to duck the apron the whole next year.
