Millsap for Bledsoe?

When is the earliest a trade can go down? Are the NBA offices closed this entire 3 day hoilday weekend with the All-Star bs?
 
I don't think the Jazz are the ones who are waiting till the last minute. I think Clippers are the ones who are surveying more offers.

How many teams need a future PG the way we do though? Not too many. I think we're one of the few teams desperate enough for a PG and just so happens to have a big to give them in return.
 
I take what I can get. I know you can probably read Bledsoe better then the rest of us, but is it possible nothing has happened and he's telling you no comment because he's stressed about the trade rumors?

DOnt think so. I took it he can't let talk about it.

Yeah, but KG is the #1 target. They won't go to Sap seriously until they know 100% that they have no ability to get KG.
 
Bledsoe> Mo Williams.


What the Jazz front office probably thinks. - Mo> Bledsoe.

I predict we re-sign Mo and he plays here for another 4 more years, and we will have to ride the full thing out too because no trade is the best trade. I think this cycle is getting pretty predictable. Its too bad that it takes the FO years to figure out what is already known by many.
 
In response to the PKM thing. There are just two teams that are being rumored to land Bledsoe, the Jazz and the Celtics.

I can't see Bledsoe being happy about going to a team that has an established All Star PG. The Jazz have nothing like that.
 
Doesn't KG have a no-trade clause in his contract? Plus he's made it known he wants to retired a Celtics?

And the Clippers have said multiple times they have no interest in trading Bledsoe. Talk is talk.

KG actually said he would only accept a trade if Pierce is also dealt. The Warriors have been rumored in trying to get Pierce from Boston. So the Clippers are probably waiting to see if something with Pierce goes down, then that would make the Celtics very eager to deal Garnett. The NBA trade deadline is like playing Dominos. Once a move is made, it triggers every other move.

Thanks for the quick repy. So. Let's break this down, the Celtics and Jazz are the only known rumored teams talking to the Clipps. Garnett has a no trade clause, and has said he doesn't want to be traded. This leaves the Jazz, and if something is going down it's with Utah or some mystery team.

Yes talk is talk, and this could be the Clips playing hard to get to drive up Bledsoe's value

Or doesn't get made and then nothing happens. One of the things that may have pushed KOC into semi-retirement is the Howard debacle. He had a couple of deals lined up, specifically one with NJ to clear salary space for them to trade for Howard and then nothing happened. So Plan B ended up happening: using the exception to sign Mo and trading Harris for Marvin. Still wonder how much different the team would be had the trade gone through.
 
Isn't Millsap a bit of a redundant player with Griffin? I could see them wanting Jefferson more.

Seems like their biggest problem is they dont have a big who could stretch the floor with his mid range shots on consistent basis. Thats why i think KG is their plan A and Milsap also easily might be on radar for them. That would make things easier for CP.

What was going to be the trade? I've somehow missed that one.
 
You prefer the Warriors pick to our own? I think it's likely we would miss the playoffs if we trade Millsap.
Doubtful. The Blazers have been tumbling downhill faster than Lindsey Vonn.
And the Lakers might be the most dysfunctional team in the NBA right now.
