I think a lot of teams would still be interested in Clarkson. The drop in his production is mainly because Utah has become a messy team, they keep experimenting with their younger players, and Clarkson hasn’t been getting the minutes he deserves. Even Lauri hasn't been as impactful lately, so it might be better for both of them to move on.

Clarkson might end up signing a minimum contract somewhere, but if he can show his true potential again, that could open the door for a better deal in the future. And if Reaves ends up leaving, maybe the Lakers would be a great landing spot for Clarkson.

Yeah, that is the brother of former Denver Nuggets Michael Porter Jr who have been traded as per @OgNasty.

But in the case of Malik, I will say that if there's no smoke, there's no fire. Which means that the NBA has a good evidence and they could have been gathering more evidences. Just like when they busted the referee before.

He has no where to hide his guilt of betting on games that he officiates. Although it makes us wonder that maybe someone close to Malik might have leak this to the NBA that's why he was now being investigated.

Porter Jr has one of the worst contracts in the league so sending him away was essential for them to stay competitive. Now they can actually get some role players that make sense.


It's about time we see the wheels turning. Until now there like only 1 man traded a day but now it's starting.  Yesterday I also saw a video about Lebron, cause he is chasing another ring. Sure he can help a team but he also is paid a lot of money, still. Not sure if teams want to spend 52 million/year for a 40 year old.

The Knicks would actually be a great landing spot. They already have a player like Brunson who can create his own shots, and Clarkson fits that mold too. He’s crafty, hard to guard, and would be a huge asset off the bench.

If he joins the second unit, he could be very effective. Now’s the time for him to step up. The Knicks are likely playoff-bound again next season, which gives Clarkson solid exposure as long as he stays healthy. Contribution won’t be an issue, especially with the right coach giving him the minutes he deserves.

Clarkson at Knicks. Wow! Fans are welcoming him with joyful comments.

I don't think the Knicks are pursuing a big-name center because they will have a problem with their salary cap. They need cheap contracts like with Clarkson, and they will be using the run-and-gun plays, which were working for them.
They can always just use KAT for under-the-rim defense, and Josh Hart can always take care of the rebounds.

Kind of a salary dump because they overpaid MPJ too much. They gave him a max contract only to not reach their expectations. For me, this is the win for the day when it comes to trades and acquisition. I mean this is a major upgrade for the team. You have a player that's good on both ends. Johnson's a good 3-and-D player - a thing that many teams want. Aside from that, they also got Bruce Brown back. The guy who had a big role when they won a title.

I guess it's good that Jokic is very vocal to say that the Nuggets aren't a championship contender team last season because the management are forced to make major adjustments for the betterment of the team.
As a Warrior fan, it's sad to see him going out of Golden State, but it's part of the business, and maybe they want to develop Quentin Post and Trayce Jackson-Davis as they're younger than him hence, they traded him. Maybe salary issues is one reason why they traded him.

Whatever the reason is, I just hope that Poole and Looney will be happy in New Orleans now alongside Williamson and Murray.

As a Warriors fan, it’s sad to see Looney leave and sign with another team. It also looks like they won’t be bringing GP2 back. On the bright side, they’re at least showing interest in getting a big man, specifically Al Horford. Statistically, he’s better than Looney, but personally, I think they should’ve gone for Capela or Brook Lopez instead. If they fail to sign Horford, who will be their center? Draymond Green? Quentin Post? Only if they can train Post to become a legit center. Oh, and there’s also Kuminga, who might end up with another team. Honestly, the Warriors are just wasting Kuminga. At least he might improve elsewhere if given decent playing time.

Well, I kinda expect some big and crazy moves from the Lakers any time soon. Yes, they are looking for a legit big man and it looks like it's difficult for them to pick up someone in the free agency at this current situation. DeAndre Ayton was good, but I don't think he'll make any difference for the Lakers. So, I am expecting some big names in the trade talks and deals soon and yeah, I was thinking about LeBron and maybe the Cavs.

I am a Lebron fan since day 1 of King james. But i will agree that the Lakers should trade LBJ to get better player/s for the future.
Lebron can still play and have a good stats for now and we saw that last season. But the future can go bigger in exchange of 1-2 years with LBJ.

LBJ can play PF  for the CAVS, The LA can get 2 good players in exchange.
