Rudy Fernandez traded to the Mavericks for Jordan Hamilton

[Grinder]

Rudy's only around for one more year but should contribute right away. Don't know if it was Hamilton though.

Jordan Hamilton will then be flipped to Denver as part of the Felton/Miller deal.

per Marc Stein.

[Rowe]

Good deal.

I actually think that Rudy will be a solid player in Dallas. He might want to re-think heading back to Europe.

[PleezeBelieve]

Great get for the Mavs!!

[Grinder]

Rudy might start instead of Deshawn Stevenson. He'll definitely be in the rotation.

[Balla_Status]

Another three point shooter to rape teams at.

[SCdac]

solid deal. Fernandez is the shit. had a crappy role in portland, for whatever reason. I can see him helping Dallas for sure.

[R.I.P.]

Will Peja retire or is Stevenson done?

[Locked_Up_Tonight]

Well, he can definitely shoot the 3 ball if he if confident. But his psyche is what messes him up.

He won't replace Stephenson... Brewer will replace Stevenson.

[PJR]

Deshawn Stevenson bye bye.

[ElPigto]

Great trade for the Mavs. I've always been a fan of Fernandez and I'm sure he will be in the rotation in Dallas.

[NuggetsFan]

Denver seemed to have a pretty good draft. Hamilton + Faried. Not bad.

[Balla_Status]

Deshawn Stevenson bye bye.

Doubtful. Maybe we don't resign Butler and depend on Marion and Fernandez.

[Joshumitsu]

Loved Rudy, hopes he does well in Dallas.

Otherwise, **** the Blazers.

[kurple]

Draft night playa award goes to Ujiri!

[R.I.P.]

They need to ****in slow down. Too many deals and trades and swaps. :lol

[HylianNightmare]

don't li it, would' preffered seeing hamilton in dallas

[heyhey]

Mavericks gonna repeat for sure. Fernandez is crazy good

[Fatal9]

Great deal for Mavs. Fixed their weakest position.

[AznTacoLover]

had a bad role in portland, best wishes to him in dallas. :)

[adri41]

Dallas trading away the 57 too. No other info on that though.

[adri41]

57 included in the deal for the rights to Petteri Koponen.

[hawkfan]

Butler will be gone.

Come to the Hawks Caron!

[Balla_Status]

Good. Dallas doesn't need a longhorn.

[hawkfan]

Bad trade for the Blazers. Why help out the champs?

[R.I.P.]

I had high hopes for Rudy, when he came over. Thought he could be a poor man

[NBAller]

I don't like this.

Hamilton >

[Godzuki]

Rudy was in a bad situation in Portland since he got there

[RoseCity07]

Wow Paul Allen, you f*cking loser. Could of had Faried, and then also keep Jordan Hamilton for Rudy Fernandez. What a retard.

Both those guys end up in Denver. OMG is Paul Allen an idiot. WTF. Felton? Really? God damn it **** this draft.

If someone how we trade Felton for Tony Parker, that would be the only redemption in this night.

[Jasper]

Will Peja retire or is Stevenson done?

both are free agents .. stevenson probably will try to get back onto the roster... he was never looked upon favorably when he came to the Mav's in his trade deal...

Peja I think is done.

[Grinder]

Wow Paul Allen, you f*cking loser. Could of had Faried, and then also keep Jordan Hamilton for Rudy Fernandez. What a retard.

I think Felton is a good pickup for you guys.

Felton
Matthews/Roy
Wallace
Aldridge
Oden/Camby

That's a nasty team.

[EoJ]

I think portland keeps Hamilton.

[NuggetsFan]

What's even going on now? Just showed that Portland is keeping Hamilton. I'm just confused now. Really hope Denver made sure to grab him when trading Felton. Just getting 'Dre without the 26 pick doesn't really excite me.

[R.I.P.]

Mavs are stockpiling big PGs overseas for the post Dirk lottery years. Calathes, now Koponen.

[ODEN>DURANT]

I wish we had drafted Kenneth Faried. :facepalm

We have Nolan Smith, Patty Mills, Armon Johsnon wtf.

I like the fact that we get a 26 year old PG that is as good as Miller and CAN hit the three...

[RoseCity07]

So no one knows if Portland keeps Hamilton or if Denver has him.

I have a feeling though, Denver got him as part of the Miller deal. Although I don't know why Portland would cave in and do that deal. It's idiotic.

[28renyoy]

I wouldn't be surprised if Hamilton ended up with the highest career ppg out of this draft class. Jesus how did OKC let him go

[DMAVS41]

Great trade for both teams. Rudy wanted out and the Blazers get a decent return.

I think Rudy will fit in really well on the Mavs. The style the Mavs play is a perfect fit for him. He'll get a lot of open shots. He's a great replacement for Peja/Stevenson.

[Meticode]

Good for Rudy. He's going to be loved by that Dallas crowd.

[EoJ]

From Rudy's twitter

thanks all blazers fans for ur support this 3 years!! So happy to be in the best team in the nba!!!dallas!!!

[dbronx42]

All of the Nuggets reporters just re-confirmed the trade is for Raymond Felton for Jordan Hamilton, and Andre Miller... The Nuggets just smashed on this draft. :rockon: They just got Kenneth Faried, Jordan Hamilton, and Andre Miller for our backup PG.

Masai Ujiri is the boss of all bosses...

[RoseCity07]

So where is the press release link. If Denver did get it man is Portland stupid.

Felton isn't going to make us contenders anymore than Andre. At least keep stockpile draft talent. I guess we are going to go for it next year.

Denver got an expiring deal and we threw in a first round pick. I really hope Nolan Smith is just better than anyone thought buy I doubt it.

My god we drafted Luke Babbitt. David Kahn outsmarted Paul Allen in a trade.

[LurkingFanboy]

Good for Rudy. He's going to be loved by that Dallas crowd.
Unless Jordan Hamilton pans out then he'll get booed heavily. Dallas fans aren't as kindly as you might think. Rudy better ball out or his stay in Dallas will be way rougher than anything he experienced in Portland. Dallas fans and media can be pretty brutal.

Here it is from Andy Katz. Who was the one who accidently said on TV that the Thompson was going to Portland in the trade.

http://twitter.com//ESPNAndyKatz


Jordan Hamilton going to Denver in this wild three-team trade . Portland also sending 2nd to Den. Portland also gets 57 (Dallas), future 2nd


Portland gets 57 in second round from Dallas. Bottom line Felton for Miller is the main piece. Hamilton to Denver. Fernandez to Dallas.
This is from the Nuggets main writer: http://twitter.com/nuggetsnews


two sources have now confirmed to me that YES, the #Nuggets get Hamilton

[RoseCity07]

Yeah I saw this on ESPN. This draft was a big fail for Portland. We have no bench, and we could stockpile any talent.

We got 1 back up for Felton next year. Didn't imrpove our rebounding off the bench.

Man this just sucks. Now it's all on Oden next year. He can't get hurt again or it's all over for our chances to do anything big next year.

[Anshan219]

Bottom line, a rookie probably can't crack the rotation on the Mavs, let alone help in a run for the title defense.

The window of opportunity for the Mavs is barely open as is, can't sit around to develop a rookie to see if he pans out in 2 or 3 yrs.

Rudy will fit in well with the Mavs and hopefully he'll regain his touch for 3's. At this point, Rudy>Beaubois. We'll see what happens with Barea/Stevenson/Butler.

Although Dirk and Nash did get booed their first year in Dallas and it was the Dallas media that started calling the Mavs the "One and done boys" nickname that Cuban referenced when they were awarded the trophy

[knickballer]

I like this trade for the Mavs and Portland.

Felton is a good PG and is much better than some rookie the Blazers would've selected. Portland already had a bunch of failed prospects and like I mentioned Felton is a real good PG. Drives well, good shooter, good D, good passer, plays hard, etc. He seems like a Nate McMillian type of player.

For the Mavs they get an exciting young player in Rudy. Place him on a championship team and he can flourish and is a decent scoring option for them. Imagine a lineup of Barrea, Barbeuis, Rudy, Dirk and Chandler, that's pretty damn athletic. They are starting to get some players for the Post Dirk era..

[magnax1]

If Dallas keeps the same team as last year otherwise, they're just mega super stacked, lol. That team has so many good players it's insane....

And the Denver Nuggets got Andre Miller to backup Ty Lawson, and Jordan Hamilton in the trade... Not to mention they had already drafted Kenneth Faried right before that.

Shout out to all the haters out there who thought he would suck! :oldlol:

[Joshumitsu]

Dallas fans-

If Rudy returns to form (as in, rookie year form), he'll quickly become the fan favorite, steal more hearts than J.J. Barea, ice more daggers than Jason Terry, and throw fancier passes than J. Kidd. You'll love him and the Blazers franchise will become a joke.

If he doesn't return to form, he'll still be a great guy off the bench that can provide spacing and the occasional 3-pointer. The Blazers will still be a joke.

[DirkNowitzki41]

I got mixed reactions about this trade..

I love Rudy but I hate the fact that we got rid of Jordan Hamilton, I liked the kid and thought we were lucky he slipped all the way down to 26th.

Also, does this mean JJ or DeShawn is gone? :(

I hope Rudy plays better than what I expect.

[Myth]

I can't believe the Blazers didn't get to at least keep Hamilton, but I won't miss Rudy at all. The dude sucks and has a bad attitude if things aren't going perfectly his way. I can't believe people say this means Stevenson will be out of the line up. Stevenson is infinitely better at defense and can hit 3s. Rudy saves his made 3 point shots until the final 3 minutes when his team is down 20.

I've been enlightened. :rockon: So Rudy's pretty much our 1st rd pick. Expecting a good 20pts from em.

Although the litter I saw from Hamilton I immediately liked. Felt like we had a steal, once again...don't disappoint us Rudy...

[vinsane01]

There is no way dallas will let go of stevenson and replace him with rudy. Rudy is a better offensive option but ill take deshawn defensive importance over him in this dallas team. If you actually watched the playoffs then you will see how valuable deshawn is to this team. Good sign for dallas. If rudy is replacing someone, i guess it's peja or even bultler (depending on his injury status). That reminds me, how is beabouis doing? Maybe he's the one on the chopping block.

Well, kinda think of it, if beabouis and butler are healthy next season then there is no reason to keep deshawn other than gratefulness for the help he did in the finals and also to be additional bench filler.

[UtahJazzFan88]

Not a fan of Rudy at all, he was total garbage in Portland when I seen him aside from a few games when they basically had a 6-7 man rotation. Giving up Jordan Hamilton for Rudy is a bad idea IMO.

Haha, not so sure about the weather ... that Texas heat is brutal.


As for replacing the defense of Stevenson, that job will go to Corey Brewer. Rudy (6'6" and lanky) will add length and athleticism to the Mavs backcourt. Barea & Terry on the court together makes the Mavs a huge defensive liability.

We usually save our over the top anger for the Cowboys.

Although Dirk and Nash did get booed their first year in Dallas and it was the Dallas media that started calling the Mavs the "One and done boys" nickname that Cuban referenced when they were awarded the trophy
And people booing Shawn Bradley and calling him Mantis. I even recall way back in the day the Reunion Arena crowd openly cheering for the Nuggets in a game in the 80s where the Mavs were behind and Denver was lighting them up. Boo the Mavs when they scored cheered the Nuggets when they scored.

Dallas loves their Cowboys but they ALSO love their winners. Mavs have always had high hopes but have never been champs. They just put themselves into the ballpark with the Cowboys good team just won a title and Dallas fans are only going to have a hunger for more. Just look at the Rangers in the past nobody cared what they did now they are getting relatively heavily analyzed. And I honestly think the Mavs are more beloved than the Rangers. That love is going to turn into hate if this trade doesn't pan out. Hopefully rudy will check his ego at the door like other better players have done when they get to Dallas and try to fit into the room and into the scheme and just do what he's asked to do when they ask him to. If he does it will be a good add and the Mavs will be just a tad more dangerous if everything else pans out.

I agree here.

I was asleep during the draft (it started at roughly 2am here), so I had to check the draft recap when I woke up. I was extremely excited when I saw that the Mavericks had drafted Hamilton, as I am a huge Longhorn fan as well.

Then I saw the trade and had mixed feelings. Although I do feel as though it would be tough for Hamilton to have cracked the rotation, I think by the end of the season he would have been a contributing piece to the team.

As for Fernandez though, if he can return to even partial form, this trade helps us a ton. The wings on our second unit will be running and gunning and might be the highest scoring group of bench players in the league (that is, if we don't hold onto Butler and Rudy starts).

I will reserve my complete judgment of the trade until after we find out a) If there will be a season and b) Who we are able to retain after the new CBA.

Well, I'm sure he is used to the hot summers in MallorcaI didnm't realize he was from the Baleric Islands. I assumed he was from Mainland Spain. Yeah, Dallas weather will be no problem for him growing up in Palma de mallorca

Mavs just got better... dammit!

[DMAVS41]

Still can't believe this happened. I really like this for the Mavs.

I think that is a great sign that we are committed to challenging for the title again next year. Which means for sure bringing back Chandler.

Stevenson is probably gone, which I don't mind much because Brewer/Rudy can easily fill that void.

I'm really curious to see what the Mavs do with Barea and Butler now. I don't think it makes much sense at all to have Roddy and Barea going forward. There is a huge log jam at guard for this team.

Kidd/Terry/Rudy/Roddy/Barea......I just don't see how that works. I don't know his trade value anymore, but I think trading Roddy at this point and keeping Barea just makes a lot more sense.

I don't know if its possible, but this team on paper would be even better if we brought those guys back with Butler.

Kidd/Barea/Butler/Dirk/Chandler......as potential starters

With Terry/Marion/Brewer/Rudy/Haywood/Cardinal/Mahinmi....off the bench.

That team is 12 deep and all 7 of the bench guys are legit. That would allow the older players to play less minutes throughout the year to be fresher late in games and in the playoffs.

In a perfect world:

Stevenson - let go
Butler - sign
Chandler - sign
Barea - sign
Peja - let go

Roddy - trade

Not sure that can all happen though.

[R.I.P.]

I honestly think Barea is 100% gone, because the Mavs masterplan is already in motion. The poor Nets just have no idea. Unless Stevenson signs for the minimum he is gone, too. If Butler doesn

He's not a spot up shooter, that's the role which McMillan diminished him to and hence did not get the expected production from Rudy.

Rudy's a scorer, not a pure shooter.

[BlazersDozen]

How is Rudy going to have a different role in Dallas that he had in Portland? Isn't the Dallas offense a lot like the Portland offense? A lot of kick outs to shooters & high screens? Rudy is going to continue to fail. I hope Dallas wants him to iso and not work to get open because he likes to stand around.

Rudy F. is a player. Dallas is going to average 120 a game. Sick to my stomach right now. They are deep.

[Nowitzness81]

Rudy might start instead of Deshawn Stevenson. He'll definitely be in the rotation.

I'd rather see Corey Brewer start.

If Brewer and Fernandez can both get to the basket consistently next year Dallas is gonna be scary.

Don't even want to think about if they keep Barea. Three guys slashing to the rim and an army of three-point shooters to kick it to. :bowdown:

I know.

Do you think we should trade him and try to just maybe free up some space?

I mean, it looks like we absolutely have to sign Barea now (probably a good thing).

But Chandler and Barea will obviously cost a lot of money to sign. And I think we also have to sign Butler as well to make another run.

If we sign Butler, Barea, and Chandler (please Cuban...please)....maybe we could package together Roddy and Jones or Brewer or something to free up some money.

Its a shame about Roddy. He doesn't really have a place on this team if the Mavs are serious about winning it again next year.....and the longer Roddy sits on the bench the worse his trade value gets.

I was obviously wrong about Barea anyway.....bring him back Mark.....bring them all back.
