Bulls interested in Okafor... I have no idea what that team is doing...

I wouldn't mind Steve back... but at this rate, we'd prob be better served giving those minutes to Kuz

Also, this was a weird trade

I don't get it at all for the Hornets- Plumlee has been awful this year and is on an awful contract. For the Bucks it's very good- they can either clear up salary or make another trade with the expirings they picked up- if they wanted to they could move Hibbert and Hawes to the Suns for Brandon Knight who played excellently for them (and they've never been as good since they traded him).

And to think I was in two minds whether to pick him or KP!:

The Denver Nuggets are quietly exploring trade scenarios involving Emmanuel Mudiay and multiple picks.

Mudiay is in his second season and the Nuggets are in no rush to move him, but he could be included if a bigger trade target presents itself.

Mudiay is averaging 12.1 points, 3.5 rebounds and 4.2 assists in 28.5 minutes per game this season. Mudiay has a PER of 10.5 and True Shooting Percentage of .479.

Jamal Murray has played well for the Nuggets in his rookie season as a combo guard.

I would still take this kid in a heart beat....He plays at a his own pace which is a talent within itself...A pace like Brandon Roy, Harden, Nash..I would jump all over this..This could be a big steal if Denver is weak kneed...But Phil is probably looking for another center...

Isiah Thomas with another great fourth quarter.

I forget what I was watching but they showed that Celtics are actually better without Thomas on the floor which definitely goes against the eye test. The reason why they are statistically worse is because he is considered the worst defensive nba player in the league.

Amazing night for Yogi Ferrell. Did the Nets mess up not keeping him?

Nevertheless, a handful of players in the Denver locker room have demonstrated slow buy-in for the new pecking order. Not everybody has fallen in line. Nurkic, Gallinari and Chandler have struggled to accept their new roles as supporting players.

Sac beat the Warriors in ot.

LaVine tears his ACL- tough break for him and the twolves. He's reliant on his athleticism so either he develops some other stuff or he's done

Slightly better, slightly..But he has added a few wrinkles to his offense, going left and using both hands...

The Hawks were rumored to be shopping him earlier in the year because they didn't want to resign him next year. Do you think they end keeping him?

Depends what he is looking for and if he keeps this up..He looks like he has gained confidence in his game and is a more polished player..But it will be about consistency...If this continues, he would be good at 10/11 mil per but certainly not at 17 mil per...JR type money is a bit high at 14 mil per too...JR brings defense..But they did trade Korver and Tim is now their leading three point shooter...

Pelicans interested in Okafor? Another team that makes no sense. Sad!

crzymdups @ 2/6/2017 5:00 PM

Seriously - this deal makes zero sense to me for the Pelicans.

Okafor doesn't work with Embiid... so the team that has Anthony Davis is trading for him?? WTF??!?!?

AD is a PF..They need a center who is a threat..Embiid is the Sixers franchise center..
