7 Big Trades To Shake Up the NBA

[@jahkrmusic]

10:09 This trade made me realize just how much Brandon Ingram has improved since his initial years with the Lakers. He's no KD, but he's a fantastic player.

[@Juancarlos-n3d7t]

Nah read reports lakers trash already why get somebody who struggles under pressure, that’s the whole lakers team Especially lebron and AD they already said they don’t want Ingram at all lol

[@nines903]

The hawks werent a true contender. But john collins did go to the conference finals and was great until the next few seasons where he forgot how to play basketball

[@Coffee-n-ball]

We have to take into account roster spots. For example in the first trade, Utah would have to waive 3 players to make that trade possible.

[@xInfiniteCaliber]

I feel like Warriors fans would want more for Kuminga

[@dchappell2020]

Kuminga is hard to gauge value honestly but if they are trading him I think BI or Randle tier player is his high value estimate and a low value would be a Cam Johnson & DFS/Dennis package is about on par. Cam could go for more value than his worth bc he’s on contract and I could see the rational for GSW sending Kuminga and Melton away for that but Cam could go for two protected firsts or maybe a really juicy future unprotected first or an unprotected pick in this upcoming draft with a stable of seconds

[@Youngbullcollector]

I LOVE the Sexton trade to Rockets. Sexton has been good better than people give him credit for, good shooting splits and output on less than 30 mins per game.

[@alex77195]

I HATE the trade because rockets already have Aaron holiday shooting 47% from 3 who is also a better defender than Sexton. No reason to make a desperate trade for a mid player on a terrible team just because Rockets are ahead of schedule. It's not a championship or bust season for them. People think they can steal Cam for pennies just because Rockets are letting him develop in G league due to depth. The reality is that they're hiding a monster from the league. 6'7 20 year old with a 40 inch vert, elite speed, athleticism, & shot creation. shooting 41% from 3 on 8.5 attempts in G league. He's there to learn the game by playing 30mpg that we can't give him in rotation right now. Already accustomed to the pace & physicality of NBA. The opposite of Reed who is already a high IQ player but isn't familiar with pace & physicality so he needs more practice against NBA athletes. Currently, Cam is much better than Reed who gets NBA minutes but Rockets are prioritizing development for both.

[@kay_mac138]

B.I. can not help the Lakers. He's not what we need. We need a center. Walker Kessler should be our target.

[@raineyjames105]

Lakers need walker kessler and sexton or Dennis for the 3rd time 😂

[@WestCoastCheeseHead]

We don’t need another scorer we need perimeter defense. I’ll gladly take Kessler too

[@Facelessman276]

That John Collin’s package is hideous. You’d definitely want to let him walk for nothing than get that.

[@rileymcphee9429]

As a Blazers fan, these videos are all I have left this season

[@tomek6132]

😂😂😂

[@Skinslyfe]

I think the vucevic trade is ridiculous because this is a revival year for vucevic why would he get traded to be a backup?

[@Luximoto]

For the first trade I just don’t see why the Jazz would do it… they have been vocal about wanting draft assets

[@starshipcaptain4753]

Laker Trades 1) Vuc & Ball for Reeves, Rui and Vincent 2) DeLo and 2 firsts for Cam Thomas and Dorian Finney Smith

[@WestCoastCheeseHead]

Take out Vuc and Cam Thomas and I’ll accept those trades. Vucevic is not a good rim protector and we don’t need another scorer

[@starshipcaptain4753]

@WestCoastCheeseHead he's certainly decent, can post up and shoot the 3 which is very rare. They also need some youth and shooting and that is Cam

[@thedimer4017]

I been calling for a Sexton trade to the Rockets since last season he would fit seamlessly

[@curtcignettiisthebestcoachever]

I really like the vucevic trade they could play him at the 4 also

[@rayvondorsey3317]

I like Collin Sexton on the warriors

[@johnperry7495]

Ingram puts up big numbers because he is the number 1 option on a mediocre to bad team. Same reason Kuzma put up big numbers for a couple of years in Wasihington and why Randle put up big numbers in New York and why Russell put up big numbers in Brooklyn. But playing BEHIND LeBron and AD as a third option, Ingram won't put up anywhere near those sort of numbers. D'Lo and Rui contribute more to the team than the Lakers would get out of Ingram after this trade... and they'd then have to pay him a giant contract immediately, leaving them no money left to add quality depth. This would put them in a similar situation as they were in after the trade for Russell Westbrook where they gave up two good role players in KCP and Kuzma. The Lakers would be much worse off after that trade... though Russell could go back to looking like a borderline All-Star leading the Pelicans. What the Lakers need is not a condensing of talent. They need a trade or two that involves giving up less-productive players and adding to the core of LeBron and AD and Russell and Rui (and to a lesser extent Knecht and Christie). The matching salary needs to be some combination of Vanderbilt (hard to trade unless he starts playing again), Gabe Vincent (playing a little better now, so he's at least not a negative asset), and the expiring contracts of Jalen Hood Schifino, Christian Wood, Jaxson Hayes, Cam Reddish, and Maxwell Lewis. They have 2 firsts they could trade, plus they have a top 5 protection on a pick that Utah owns, so if they were trading with Utah, they could offer to waive that protection as part of the trade. So, deals like this (not ALL of them obviously, but one or two deals... kinda like two years ago when they swung deals for Rui, Russell, and Vanderbilt: Gabe Vincent and a couple of seconds to Washington for Jonas Valanciunas Christian Wood and a pick or two to Utah for Walker Kessler (possibly one unprotected plus unprotect the 2025 pick Utah already has) Gabe Vincent, Cam Reddish and a pick to Brooklyn for Dennis Schroeder Vincent, Vanderbilt, JHS, and 2 firsts to Brooklyn for Cam Johnson. the way to improve isn't to give up two good role players for one good role player.

[@HarryChun-qr4ir]

Giannis and brook Lopez to Portland for Robert Williams, Matisse thyblle, anfernee simons, jerami grant and four first round picks.

[@Solghetto]

Overall not bad. Out of a of them I like the Clippers/Bulls trade. Clippers get a nice boost in their offense side and the Bulls free up some cap space while also getting more draft picks.

[@JosephVallejo27]

Just last night I was trying to cook trades up on Fanspo and really was trying for Vuc and Lavine but damn that was hard

[@kafkakaraoke]

As a Mavs fan 👎. Klay & Maxi for Collins is crazy. Collins isn't a fit in Dallas. His defense isn't there. We're not trading Klay in the middle of year one. Maxi, Prosper, and 2 seconds for Finney-Smith.

[@WestCoastCheeseHead]

The lakers need perimeter defenders and backup center that can protect the rim while AD is on the bench I don’t get why I keep seeing trades for scorers when they already have more than enough guys that can do that

[@Blue.Marvel]

Why every other team get a decent trade proposal but you give the Lakers Ingram??

[@Kobevvz]

Why would mavs trade klay?

[@LwandleDlamini_]

If the warioirs make a trade it should be for an all-star not a role payer imo

[@jaychrisnavarro7574]

Dennis to Orlando would be a perfect fit

[@arthurmitchell5285]

Love that Rockets trade

[@blablablaa14]

I would not trade Cam Whitmore to get back Collins Sexton. One has 2 more years with basically no money owed and can develop into a prime player. He just isn't getting many minutes right now

[@blogtrump9965]

The lakers should look to get vuc, and cj mccolum. After that they can look for a sexton ect or hold d lo or vandy and pick up role players /buyout. I’ve worked out the money they could trade for all 3 but realistically they need mccolum as he can shoot without being ball dominate if needed

[@seann555]

I would love that rockets trade for phx instead of utah, send grayson and a first for cam whitemore and jeff

[@noahlarocque3321]

huge warriors and nets fan love kuminga this deal is great

[@yosi5077]

Anyone know where he got that sign on the right side that shows the live scores & records of games??

[@clipcorleone_7thdayfamilia]

We are not burning Cam for Sexton 😂

[@davyunwashington3613]

Somebody on that team gonna get move can’t paid everybody

[@17thpyoungin]

No sir. I do not want d'angelo russell anywhere near my team 🗑🗑

[@outforthecount7027]

It’ll just be trash going in a dumpster

[@PrestonSmith-r5l]

Mavs would never say yes to that trade

[@ashtonjackson7]

Mavs fan here! I’m not sure John Collins is as good a fit as you might think. I feel him and PJ play the exact same role and we are losing more defensive play in Klay than I would like!

[@terrancejohnson8017]

If dallas get collins their going to be dangerous

[@huthaifaabdul-hafeez5007]

Every trade involving the Lakers is just poor. I am just assuming these are east coast who don't really watch West Coast games. Ingram played with LeBron before and it wasn't Magic😂

[@victorthompson6774]

NO and LA won’t trade with each other for some time

[@MrCosmickamote]

Poor Utah. Teams dumping their bad players for their starters without even getting a pick.

[@nathanielsimmons9276]

I say trade AD and LeBron and Bronny

[@pattycake1648]

Warriors don’t need role players they need another guy next to Steph

[@terrancejohnson8017]

Spurs neeed a trade

[@Ockojocko]

Every trade you named they already have somebody playing that position lol I don’t see the point

[@braianhenker3994]

No entiendo el traspaso para Clippers, me gustaría mucho más un John Collins o un cam Johnson

[@billl.2441]

Why would the magic take on klay? These trades are so dumb.

[@jasonebi7308]

Imagine trading bron for ingram.

[@bobbyrays]

Vucuvic will cost you a first.

[@theconnaisseur]

Lakers should trade LeBum to the nets for Cam Johnson and DFS. LeBum would be a great tank commander

[@Relentlesseditz]

💀

[@001lui]

Either ur trolling terribly or incredibly brain dead

[@Juancarlos-n3d7t]

Nah what he did last game I can’t even get mad , All I can think about is the anger management movie , you godda dunk that and he then goes shoots a half court shot when down by 2 with 4 seconds left if I was AD I would demand a trade and play with other stars

[@jjoe7078]

Crazy you’re saying this about one of the highest floor raisers in nba history. Let’s just take it for what he is now. He’s old and washed.

[@001lui]

@@jjoe7078 averaging 23 9 and 9 🤣🤣

[@bennytakeson]

isn't Franz hurt?

[@minksmithsonian]

Pelicans have no use for Rui next year, he’d just be another overpriced piece for less than 30 mins a year. But if that the best pick they can get then hey. Also, LAL fans clearly don’t watch NOP games. BI would be a fantastic fit for them, esp as Lebron continues to decline. He’s become a genuine leader and locker room guy in addition to being a certified bucket getter and facilitator. Came back injured for the playoffs last year and had to deal w the best defense in the league and its best defender- he didn’t choke. Just because he isn’t a max player doesn’t mean he’s trash- he’d immediately be the third best player on the team by a mile. LAL fans also forget they’re perennially capped out, so can’t sign FAs of that caliber. The only way to get them is via trade-and-extend. Side note- Franz Wagner out for 4-6 weeks. Anything related to ORL is up in the air now. Love that Kuminga trade.

[@huthaifaabdul-hafeez5007]

Lakers fans have seen Ingram before. He doesn't improve their defense, questionable health, and below 40% 3 point shooter. There is no way, that I give up a lottery pick for him.

[@g.fazo2x568]

Trade lebron

[@bingowatanabetrianto1053]

47

[@tomek6132]

If I’m the warriors I’d rather add sexton for a pick and keep kuminga. Better shooter than cam and has proven he can put up numbers as a role player.

[@kyadax]

im sorry but Cam Johnson (no upside) for Jonathan Kuminga (infinite upside) is just a terrible trade there is no way the warriors do that

[@xxmemen007]

Warriors needed to maximize Curry's final few years in the league. Warriors gave kuminga a lot of years to develop and obviously doesn't fit the warriors system at all.

[@treymatthews3353]

Potential is highly overrated by fans in the context of value, and if the Warriors are trying to win with Curry they can’t just wait for Kuminga to develop which isn’t even guaranteed to happen. Currently Cam is just a better player than Kuminga with a far more valuable skillset. The reality is that Kuminga is in his 4th year as a forward that still can’t space the floor, and isn’t really that great at anything besides slashing. Other teams aren’t going to find him that enticing, and his value isn’t all the high.

[@misterkhaya]

​@@treymatthews3353Absolutely spot on 👌🏾

[@instantactionz4284]

What are you smoking

[@slimfo378]

LeDiddy for ingram

Don’t no team want D Lo hahahahahahahah
