The Newest NBA Trade Rumors Are INSANE…

NBA trade rumors are at their absolute Peak right now and that includes some very very weird ones and when I say weird I don’t even mean like this doesn’t make any sense this could never happen these are things that like could happen but it’s just weird that it’s

Even a conversation it’s weird that it’s even thrown out there it’s weird that it’s even a rumor in the first place and honestly a lot of these are pretty funny as well at least I find them really really funny first and foremost this has to be discussed um they were trade RS

Involving LeBron over the last couple of days um rumors is probably the best way to put it I mean there’s like obscure Twitter accounts talking about the possibility of LeBron getting traded LeBron tweeting weird Emoji stuff randomly sitting out of games and if you really wanted to get to the point of oh

LeBron trade makes sense for the Lakers it’s actually not that hard to get to that line of thinking he obviously is still very very good but old going to be a free agent um uncertainty in terms of his future with the team and he’s going to kind of always be pushing buttons

Behind the scenes for this team he’s always going to be pushing for them to make more moves it’s always going to be uncomfortable for the role players on the team that constantly feel like they’re going to get traded and if you could get some value out of LeBron to

Potentially add to next year’s team and of course keep Anthony Davis in all of that theoretically um yeah you could get there you could certainly make an argument now um there’s no indication that LeBron has requested a trade and there’s very little indication that the Lakers have considered this at all both

LeBron Rich Paul because come out and said he’s not going to trade it it’s not happening they have an as for trade which is fine um but this had to be mentioned this was just a very very weird situation and again I think you could talk yourself into it as like a

Decent idea if you’re the Lakers um but this is not a video game and LeBron does not get traded it’s not how it works technically he did get traded once um when he went to Miami but that was more of a logistical thing um it just doesn’t

Happen unless he asks for it to happen um it doesn’t so the kind of season Lakers are having this year is something that they’re going to probably continue to experience over the next couple years assuming LeBron is still on the team and I’m assuming LeBron is still going to be

On the team another rumor we have here um this like never happens the Nets had an opportunity reportedly to get some of their own picks back from Houston that they traded to Houston in the James Hardon trade and teams getting their own picks back is very very rare we talked

About the possibility of Deon Murr um going to San Antonio and Atlanta getting a pick or two back that they traded away for jonay Murray in the first place um teams trading stuff so that the other team will adjust the protections on a particular pick that’s not super common

But that does happen but this specific situation of Houston wants male Bridges male Bridges is someone that has a lot of value to Brooklyn and Houston holds the Nets future first round picks for the next handful of years because of the James Harden trade including this season

By the way which is a big reason why the Nets haven’t really chosen to kind of break things down and and move on from this core and this is just an opportunity that never comes up and this idea of trading Mel Bridges specifically for the Houston pics has created this

Interesting little thought experiment within you know kind of some of the NBA Community as released to the Nets because on one hand it’s like of course you do this like you can actually rebuild and reset the team you can trade away stuff which right now they can

Trade some stuff but they can’t trade like a lot of stuff because then they’re just going to be giving away a potential top five pick and yes a weak draft class to who’s in this upcoming season but like generally speaking teams don’t like to bottom out when they don’t have

Access to their own first round pick and a as some people put it get out of jail free card on the James Harden trade and giving up Miguel Bridges who’s been good but not great this year is something that theoretically makes sense and for Houston by the way that would be an

Awesome addition for them and this Net’s situation in terms of trading Mel Bridges this is the most advantageous Mel Bridges trade they could possibly make getting their own picks back because those picks are more valuable to them than any other picks around the league and conversely for Houston this

Is probably the best value they can get out of these nets picks because those picks are not as valuable to any other team as they are to the Nets now the rumor coming along with this possibility of Houston and Brooklyn talking about this trade back and forth is the Nets

Have said no the Nets have said no on any Mel Bridges trade they’ve said no not only to the Houston thing but they like barely spoke about it they’re like no we’re not even considering this which on one hand is like okay really strong indication they want to keep Mel Bridges

On the other hand for a couple years running now we have heard the Nets aren’t trading Kevin Durant the Nets aren’t trading Kevin Durant the Nets aren’t trading Kevin Durant oh just kidding all of a sudden Kevin rant’s going to Phoenix uh same thing with James Harden going to Houston they

Weren’t trading him they weren’t trading him they weren’t trading oh just kidding James Harden is now in Philadelphia and so I’m not saying that it’s going to happen but if there was a male Bridges deal that made sense for Brook that they would actually do with the deadline it

Is more than likely the one where they get their picks back from Houston and this is a team and an organization with a history of not really revealing what their plans are and kind of publicly saying we will not do something and then changing that up later as a way to try

And gain some leverage on the other team so that’s definitely one to keep an eye on speaking of Houston by the way Jaylen green is like extremely available all of a sudden in Houston which is very very weird because he had a good start to his career statistically and he’s clearly

Very talented but Houston is like a decent team and unfortunately for Jaylen green they’re like one what Jaylen green was supposed to be or maybe eventually will be away from being like a top eight top six team in the west and potentially more than that moving forward into the

Future and it’s weird because the almost the thing that is holding them back is like another back court Creator like explosive offensive guy and Jaylen green was kind of profiled as that as a as a draft pick and has kind of been that you know potential upside guy within their

Franchise since he’s come in the league um and he just hasn’t become that he’s not bad he’s just still very very young player and it’s interesting to me how much Houston is seemingly trying to push towards being good pretty soon of course they made all the moves in the off

Season they traded for Steph Adams who’s going to try and help them next year once he gets healthy and then again we have all these rumors about Jaylen green possibly getting moved as well before they hired udoka the Rockets would not be considering Jaylen trading away Jaylen green they want to let him

Develop they’d want him to um you know kind of become what they hope that he will be but they kind of need what J green is supposed to be right now if they want to end up being good and so again whether it be possibly as a part

Of the Mel Bridges trade package or just down the road in the future um Jaylen Green’s time in Houston might be kind of limited which is really strange to think about because I thought of him coming into the year as a pretty foundational piece for them yet amongst the young

Guys there with a beach Bari Smith uh shenon of course it seems like Jaylen green has kind of fallen out of favor in Houston and then the last part of this kind of weird funny trade rumor segment here um we’re still getting dejonte Murray buzz and I made a prediction that

He’s going to go to the Lakers um I’m still pretty confident in that but for whatever reason Detroit is involved in this um it seems like there’s four teams right now Milwaukee who can’t trade like anything for him I don’t know how that’s going to work um the Lakers have a very

Easy trade structure to be able to put together for de jonay marray if um they’re able to find a place for D’Angelo Russell to go to the Nets seem to be involved as well so they can add a guard alongside there guys um San Antonio that seems to have kind of gone

Away and Detroit also for whatever reason is involved in this um I would presume that it would involve jayen Ivy and some stuff and pair de jonay Murray with Kate Cunningham in the backourt it’s an interesting backourt because of the size and length of those two guys but I don’t really understand what

Detroit’s doing for two different reasons one they don’t need Deonte Murray this team’s terrible what is Deonte Murray going to do for them and two I think it’s very possible Jay iy could be like pretty good over the next couple of Seasons now that he’s actually getting reps and actually playing and I

Don’t know that that’s an asset that I would want to just completely give up on especially when I’m as bad as Detroit is especially for a player Inn Murray that is going to be on a huge massive contract over the next couple of Seasons I just I understand the concept of let’s

Make our team better so we’re not literally one of the worst teams of all time from a record standpoint that makes total sense um but the idea of dejon Murray being like a priority for you within the season that Detroit is in makes very little sense to me which

Honestly most of the rumors we talk about today make very little sense to me but that’s why they made the video that’s why they’re in the video is because they’re fun they’re interesting to talk about as we are getting so so close to the actual NBA trade deadline
