It's beyond time to start ignoring Bleacher Report. I don't think they even believe in the proposed deals they sling together anymore.

[@Dizcrete]

Tbh it’s probably just interns atp just cooking up trades that make people shake there heads

[@flockaveli15]

Preach!!! And the fact guys like this just regurgitate it is lazy af. You just taking someone else partially good partially shit proposals and just saying them in video and making money off it like you really had to do any work except read from a website😂😂

[@moezoun]

That’s the best case for Philly. I’d much rather Mikal and DFS than PG and it’s not even close.

[@whatsgood22022]

Interesting…

[@Iceman-gs2xf]

agreed philly doesnt need another ball dominant player they need 3and d and mikal is like the peak of 3 and d and dfs another 3 and d just perfect plus pg is old

[@whatsgood22022]

@@Iceman-gs2xf they should try to get Mikal, DFS, and Cam Johnson.

[@jethawk1172]

As a nets fan, this would be an interesting change besides the mikal to rockets. I pray we listen to trade offers for mikal. Dfs to Philly for their 2024 pick is definitely on the table.

[@lakritz1987]

Agreed. Two guys with clear roles in their best years is way better than one aging ex-star

[@nitoshadow]

why would he cavs trade mobley for markannen thats dumb imo

[@3rr1k_]

this guy doesn’t have a single good take on his channel, don’t be surprised

[@2tfruity]

[@lakritz1987]

@3rr1k_ troll much?

[@MySportsTeamsKillMe]

Definitely because they would trade Allen before Mobley

[@Dizcrete]

Bro next time watch the vid he didn’t cook these up 🤦or atleast pay attention

[@retz79]

Hello no for the warriors. Too many guards already for the Dubs

[@JesseMoon-vp8ps]

The GSW lol 😂💀

[@Khiggs352]

Mitchell is more than likely going to sign an extension in Cleveland. Most reports even say that. In no way does he seem “unhappy” in Cleveland.

[@Dizcrete]

Yeah but there will probably be big changes

[@gazorpagrantgaming7190]

They will have to trade Darius Garland if that’s the case. I don’t see Cleveland being an elite team with both of them on the roster because their skill sets are redundant.

[@nellynel4583]

I don't see any of the above mentioned trades happening

[@MrJman967]

Lauri to NY for Randle is an underrated move. Much better fit offensively and defensively for NY. Would give NY a big that can space the floor and doesnt disrupt the offense like Randle iso ball

[@PimpHandStrong1492]

The Sixers need this to happen…no to 34yr PG!

[@sharky1854]

Why the fuck would the warriors trade away there second option that is a 21 year old athletic beast and a good rotational player for Dejounte Murray? Please don’t let Kerr get another guard. Kerr wil run lineups with Cris Paul, curry, klay, Murray and draymond. And I don’t want to see that

[@puffontheradio6021]

Not gonna lie as an nba fan in general that Philly trade is about a perfect fit as you can get and he’s from there so it’s special 💯

[@Dizcrete]

Yeah funny thing I’m pretty sure philly drafted him but traded him immediately lol

[@DonBarrleone]

@@Dizcreteyup, for Zhaire Smith, who ended up never playing for the Sixers because of a freak allergic reaction. Sucks that we never got to see why the front office thought it was a good idea to trade Bridges away for him.

[@Alf9393]

Is Mikal really worth 3 first rounders. Seems pretty steep to me

[@lukeymccoy4730]

As a 76ers fan who has witnessed the process in full effect...I think so. Joel isn't getting younger and most certainly not healthier...luckily Maxey has budded in a bright young star but their window is 2025-2028 at the absolute most

[@Dizcrete]

Yeah maybe but Philly isn’t known to amazing draft choices plus if it fails they could trade everyone and get a bunch of picks back

[@ilphi08]

@@lukeymccoy4730 Try signing free agents first We didn't clear all that cap space for nothing I'd rather sign Paul George and trade those firsts for Alex Caruso He's an elite defender who could shoot 3s well and only cost 10M next season And he's 6'5, that could complement Tyrese Maxey's 6'2 frame in the backcourt

[@Alf9393]

[@UptownV-hp3uf]

[@bradspraggins5157]

Hey Hoops!!

[@fantasymangacomicvisionary5688]

LMAO, BIG 3 are coming to a end. Just because the Suns grab 3 Guys in a Pure Offensive Star in K.D, a Only Offensive Star in Booker, a Overrated Offensive Player in Beal on one team who all get in each other way and smash them together doesn't make them a True Big 3. Within a True Big 3 each Star bring something different to the table and all or at least 2 of them are Great Defensively. So only KD on the Suns is Great Offensive plus OK on defense. Now Booker doesn't play D and Beal is just Overrated altogether. This doesn't work.

[@blakedabner9338]

Im a suns fan The way u briefly talked about them at the end is so absolutely true!!

Interesting trade idea for you! Pelicans get: Dejounte Murry and Okongwu Kings get: Brandon Ingram and Larry Nance Hawks get: Harrison Barnes and Kevin heurter, dillion Mitchell and Dyson Daniels plus 2 first from kings and 1 from pelicans lottery protected. Hawks start the rebuild, they get more first round picks along with some young talent with some vets that can be flipped down the line. Kings get that 3rd star, he can provide scoring and some defense and with Larry nance a good back up big. The pelicans finally get that guard they want and they can get a starting center as well, thus why they had to give up a first. I believe the salary works but lmk. Thoughts?

[@Dizcrete]

Ngl nice trade did you make this yourself?? I think pels and kings do this but I think hawks would be a lil hesitant to make this

[@nxxdle_]

okongwu and zion is bad spacing. Pels getting murray is an interesting thought. Your deal has the kings giving up way too much for BI who’s never healthy by the playoffs.

[@GrimReaper-er8uu]

Why would the kings want 3 guys who can average 25 (fox, domas, Ingram) and 2 of them be subpar defenders. Maybe if any of them can really work off ball, but they all want the ball in their hands

[@aksharpatel2619]

@@Dizcrete yes sir thanks man, and yeah I do understand that, in this scenario they would use the reset button yk

[@aksharpatel2619]

@@GrimReaper-er8uu no doubt, think it would work together, Ingram has never been a one and when asked to he wasn’t able to, I think he knows that, him being on the pelicans allows him to play off ball much more, and I think his play would benefit so much from it

[@OhSoNasty]

Darude sandstorm

[@gooseallie4417]

Best realistic trade is the clippers lakers trade. PG is probably gone so if the clippers can get those guys in return that’s a solid pick up for them. Reeves has potential to be a good role player Rui isn’t trash Russell is a player they can flip as well as Vanderbilt. But the draft pick could be really valuable if it’s later on. Clippers have no draft picks.

[@gemox3225]

As a Cavs fan, I would prefer to see Garland traded and Mitchell signed for an extension. Mobley did show a little bit of an improvement this year with his 3 point shooting. If he can continue to improve, Allen and Mobley together might still be viable.

[@Davivd2]

My expectations for Bleacher Report are quite low. Somehow, they somehow managed to fall short of that.

[@novagotgame]

Besides nets trade,these trade are horrible

[@marlinesutherland5358]

That nets trade is horrible too, why would Brooklyn who owes their picks to Houston, trade their best asset for picks from a playoff team with no young player with upside in the trade. They would just be sending Houston #3 picks until 2027

[@AppliedNuggets]

🚮

[@lukeymccoy4730]

​@marlinesutherland5358 considering a mid 1st round from this upcoming and a potentially very valuable Clippers first round come 2026...it's honestly not. The Nets are going to be stuck in purgatory with Chicago in having a sub par record/team with nothing to show for it...for absolutely garbage draft spots, they messed their future up bad trading theirs away already but Brooklyn did it once in the last decade and recovered way quicker to contender status then thought

[@marlinesutherland5358]

@@lukeymccoy4730 The Clippers 2026 does not have potential to be good when they have already resigned Kawhi and plans to retain Harden and Paul George. The only trade for the nets that makes sense is either trading for their picks back from Houston (which it was rumored they turned it down) or trade The Suns Picks for a Star. They can not settle for more mid picks.

[@idiverse3457]

Facts

[@farquadshmoogle9120]

Philly has Bridges, they drafted him. But then they stupidly traded him right after drafting him. Was the most confusing thing that happened that draft, for me. Philly needed exactly what Bridges provides, & they trade him away????

[@johnzywko5885]

Sorry, Bridges was already a Sixer and even wore a Philly cap on draft night…we already gave him away for Z.Smith and now we have to give away a lot more to get him back..what kind of organization are they running here..

[@Ghd301]

What is this Warriors Trade ?!🤡 murray is an average role Player at best and the Talent on GSW is still Crazy

[@Jasonwilliams21]

That warriors trade is utter trash.

[@boris2997]

Mikal Bridges value never went down the NETS were offered 3 first round picks from Grizzlies before he played a single game for the NETS, plus he's on a cheap contract

[@adrianvaldivia1308]

If I’m Cavs I’d trade Garland for Lauri and trade Jarrett Allen for a PG and run a New PG-Spida-Max Strus-Lauri-Mobley

[@Cheeseguap]

Only one you prolly was right bout was da 76ers & Nets 😭

[@dreadfullyeti6686]

That lauri markannen trade is so bad why would the cavs ever do that lauri is good but hes not that good

[@Coach_Vedo]

Here is one exclusive for you all here. REMEMBER THIS. Giannis will go to Warriors,play with Klay amd Steph, Draymond will go to Bucks and Dame will go to Lakers. That is 100% done deal already. Only thing is that it will be annaounced by the end of summer.

[@jbischmann]

PG at 3.7 career assists how does that equate to max contract? Balmer gotta not fold or he'll be seen as a tool to siphon $$ from. 3 yr $125 or walk away, let Orlando pay him max to go bass fishing and podcast. Clippers also need a big who can shoot 3's ... not playing Theis playoffs was a mistake, got too predictable/stagnant attempting tough shots on the perimeter as paint was clogged.

[@bobwhite2]

​@@Dizcreteas much as we love Allen he would be the one to go, he's a perennial Allstar so his stock isn't rock bottom and a 22 yr old Mobley has the seeds to be something really really good.may not be as tough as allen banging down low but he can guard 1-5 and still recover at such a young age

I think the Mobley for Markkanen move would be pretty good. Lauri has proven he’s an all-NBA caliber player since he left Cleveland, while Mobley has not fulfilled his promise of becoming Kevin Garnett 2.0. Plus, he is a far better fit next to Jarrett Allen than Evan Mobley is.
