That makes literally ZERO sense, unless AD is gone. They already have Randle, AD, and Mirotic. Not to mention that they have Okafor as well.

What?

They got a 2nd round pick out of it just to take on a little extra salary.

Wizards wanted under the tax.

What doesn't make sense, or won't make sense...is if the Wizards don't trade Ariza and Green.

Given the two moves they just made, not getting some 2nd rounders, at least, out of those guys would just be insanely dumb.

But this move made perfect sense for both teams.

I'm talking about the Pels. Why do they need another PF? They already have more than enough.

Anyways, when I made the original post, I didn't know that the Pels traded away Wesley Johnson. Is the deal Morris for Johnson straight up?

if they really wanna tank, they can just sit randle/mirotic.

[sammichoffate]

if they really wanna tank, they can just sit randle/mirotic.I can see them doing that, although Randle and Mirotic are probably gonna statpad for a bigger contract.

Why include AD?? He won't play a minute for the Pels after the deadline.
Or do they want him to get significantly injured and hurt his trade value??

:lol how many starting caliber PF's do they want?

someone needs to explain to demps that 1. yes, the modern nba is a perimeter oriented league now. 2. no, PF does not stand for perimeter forward.

The Pels got a 2nd round pick out of it like I said.

That is why they did it.

Morris is expiring and they won't keep him.

Sounds like Randle and Mirotic might be dealt as well. Have to have someone

Mirotic just got dealt.

If Pels were smart, they'd deal Randle as well.

[Xiao Yao You]

sounds like he's available
