OKC has traded Chris Paul to Phoenix for Ricky Rubio, Kelly Oubre, Ty Jerome, Jalen Lecque and draft compensation, sources tell @TheAthleticNBA

Michael Jordan wants to trade for Russell Westbrook but the Hornets won’t deal their No. 3 pick for him, per
@KevinOConnorNBA

Come on, Michael Jordan! Give up that number three overall pick for Russell Westbrook. We'll throw in Robert Covington and our 2023 first-round pick. Maybe make it a three-team trade to make all the salaries work. It's all a pipe dream anyway. Doubt they can do a trade that fast.

Oh Wow! If Chris Paul was traded again then anything is possible I guess.

Honestly, I'll settle for Julius Randle from the Knicks for Russell Westbrook. The #3 overall pick is too much. Maybe three or four years ago.

Oubre a really nice player that’s solid for okc.

Also cp3/ayton PNR gonna be nasty

Chris Paul's hamstring is my only issue. That's a ticking time bomb and he's older now.
It held up remarkably well last year, but he had a lot of days off with the unique season.

That's an awesome move for Phoenix.

They were on absolute fire in the bubble, not losing a single game. So they have the confidence already, now adding a high IQ veteran PG who can still play at an All-Star level.

Stop stalling and tell Daryl Morey to trade us Ben Simmons and a future first-round pick for James Harden. That's what I'm waiting to see!

You won't see Embiid or Simmons moved, not at this point. The only move the Sixers make would include anyone else, i.e. Horford or Richardson.

I'm still hoping to see us nab Buddy Heid from Sacramento.

I just don't like that trade offer I've been seeing from the Nets for James Harden. That's a lot of intriguing pieces but none of it measures up to a 24-year-old stud like Ben Simmons. Two-time all star and an elite defender. First-team All NBA defense this past year. Simmons will improve his three-point shot and jumper. He could be the MVP of the league in a couple years once he does that.

If Harden can give the 76ers a clear path to the NBA Title in the next couple of years I think you should roll the dice and just go for it! Otherwise the NBA world is going to be in trouble if the Brooklyn Nets put together the next super team and have a superstar trio of Durant, Harden and Kyrie. If they have any bench left over that team is going to win an NBA Title or two. They may be the only team that can take down the Lakers.

Rubio and Oubre is a lot tho + a pick. Presti raped them. Now he is flipping both for more

suns just pulled a philly. young team trying to go all out when they should rather keep building. guess they are afraid that booker wants out.
