As the trade deadline is approaching, i hope the Mavericks will make a move. Andre Drummond might be possible and i always thought he'd be a good fit. If he gets bought out i'll bury my hopes, though.

If those aren't highly protected the Bulls FO is back to full clownshow status.

the dismantling of hte Raptors has begun.. Norm is gone.

First class guy all the way around... always gave 100% effort ... losing Norm is a big loss for the Raptors.

i can't agree or disagree because i do not know what "but bulls do not enough around to be good" means.

I'm not wasting time deciphering an incoherent sentence.

In any event, Norm is a rental who has never been a starter and will be expecting to cash in .... in a few months. The deal doesn't seem odd or strange to me. If anyone tries to make him a starter it'll be interesting to see how well that right shoulder holds up. Expect Hood to be waived or leave the team at the end of the year. Trent jr on a rookie deal is a nice gamble by Ujiri.

The peak of Norm's career occurred when he was inserted as a starter in the 4th game of that 1st round series with the Bucks in 2017. He turned the series around.

Norm will be missed.

Thomas to the Jazz for a future 2nd rounder.
Thomas 41.5% 3-point percentage is based off of a lot of 3s at a high degree of difficulty. The guy is a stone cold sniper.

If Kawhi walks after this year... there will be nuttin left of the Clippers. Masai taking it down to the wire.

George Hill once again finds himself on another top playoff contender.

did the Sixers nix a Lowry deal and go with Hill instead? is Lowry now going to the Heat for "not much" ?

Terrence Davis to Sacramento for a 2nd rounder. Damn, I was hoping he'd get some playing time with Norm gone. Perhaps opening up a roster spot for the Lowry trade?

if Kyle doesn't go... its because he could not negotiate a wink-wink-nudge-nudge handshake deal type of extension with whomever the Raptors trading partner was.

Oladipo to Miami according the Grange and some ESPN guy.
