Hawks, who have a toe into tax territory, unable to pull off deal to get under, league sources say. May move a pick for cash to pay bill.

Give us your first for cash, Atlanta.

[BruceLeeRoy]

Hawks sell 2nd round pick to Warriors, via team press release.

 

[rage1973]

JFC lakers got rid of Fisher and Walton on the same day.

 

[LuchaShaq]

Javale Mcgee to Dallas for Odom.

Great trade for Dallas.

McGee is a fucking knucklhead, but a productive knucklehead.

Also his idiot moments aren't shit like pulling guns/getting in fights off the court.

Dirk/Kidd and co will keep him on the straight and narrow.

 

[DY_nasty]

Or Shaq.

kobe never won w/o fish doe

 

[Canuck76]

hahahaha headline of blazers edge:


"BLAZERS BLOODY TRADE DEADLINE RUINED BY FELTONS SURVIVAL?"

 

[Prototype-03]

love fisher. i respect the dude.
wish him the best.

Yeah a little conflicted. I always make fun of him but the dude always came through for us and was a team stabilizer/leader.

Blake
Kobe
Metta
Pau
Bynum

Sessions
Glock
Barnes
McBob/Hill
Bynum/Murphy

Not bad.

Team actually looks good! It's no longer Barnes and the 2nd fiddle super scrubs.

 

[crpav]

I gotta say im a little sad. Fisher has been awful but he's made enough big game shots to have a place in my heart. right next to Robert Horry

This. I feel the same. As much hate as he gets he was a key part to their 5 titles. He was there for all 5 right? As a Laker fan I am ashamed I didn't know Fisher was not a Laker for a short while. I only found out this year.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Fish may be bought out by HOU.

 

[Omzz]

maybe a buyout from rockets?

it's all part of the plan..

 

[Justin Timberlake]

Fishers probably gonna get bought out and return to the Lakers, knowing that motherfucker

Lakers did great in terms of salary imo, but frankly I don't think they got much better. Not getting Beasley hurts.

 

[Emwitus]

I duno, Fish can be shit for 47m50s, but I still want him with Kobe in clutch.

Quoted for truth. Has their even been a player as crap as he is and awesome at the same time.

 

[Lkr]

WHAT THE FUCK MITCH?!?!? HOW COULD YOU TRADE TWO CORNERSTONES OF A CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM??!!?!?!?

 

[friskykillface]

any truth to the NBA league office extending the deadline for the Lakers to try and get Beasley :O

 

[flyover]

I duno, Fish can be shit for 47m50s, but I still want him with Kobe in clutch.

Well, that would be fine if coaches would only play him in those last ten seconds. Problem is that everyone keeps starting him and playing him over half the game.

 

[Herpes Reasons]

@Adrian Wojnarowski

The Rockets will explore a buyout for Derek Fisher, but they do need point guard help with Kyle Lowry, sources tell Y! Sports. now

come home fish. get #6 with mamba

Fisher can't go back to LA, not under the new CBA.

dammit

 

[reilo]

Fisher can't go back to LA, not under the new CBA.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

#UtahJazz did not make a deal before #NBA trade deadline.

Fuck.

 

[letsbereasonable]

any truth to the NBA league office extending the deadline for the Lakers to try and get Beasley :O

I saw that, too. I don't know, though, source looked shaky.

Deals could still be out there, it sometimes takes a bit for the last second ones to get announced.

 

[Onemic]

Blake
Kobe
Metta
Pau
Bynum

Sessions
Glock
Barnes
McBob/Hill
Bynum/Murphy

Not bad.

why would blake start over sessions?

 

[crpav]

Or Shaq.

Um, you serious? 2 rings without Shaq was all a dream?

 

[Forceatowulf]

Love ya Fish. I was there for every single one of those 5 rings and my god we could not have done it without you.

But reality is reality... and you're washed up buddy. I wish you nothing but the best from here on out. Truly.

 

[Mxrz]

I got a lot of flak from friends and other Magic fans for keeping the faith in Dwight. But wooo. Yeah, just one more season, but I'm praying to God that someone either takes over as GM, or at least gets Otis under control.

/survive another season.

I think Fish is still better than Duhon. Come to Orlando!

 

[jobber]

wait...George Hill got traded????????????????????

 

[Vahagn]

This Fisher trade put a black cloud over the day...I'm gonna go eat and drink my frustration away like the skinny fatass that I am

 

[ryutaro's mama]

kobe never won w/o fish doe

He never won without Shaq either...until he did.

I have this feeling the Rockets just wanted the pick and are gonna cut Fisher at some point.

Don't get too happy just yet, Laker fans.

 

[GaimeGuy]

any truth to the NBA league office extending the deadline for the Lakers to try and get Beasley :O

I wouldn't be surprised if the office made an exception for something like that.

It's all about $. Lakers are merchandise kings, and Beasley can sell a modest (not great, but not bad, either) # of jerseys.

 

[abuC]

@Adrian Wojnarowski


come home fish. get #6 with mamba



dammit

Fisher can't return to the Lakers until the end of the season, that loophole was closed during the lockout.

 

[flyover]

This tweet is so obvious, it could have been written weeks ago and scheduled to be posted after the deadline passed...

K.C. Johnson
#Bulls didn't get close to any moves as NBA trade deadline passes.

 

[Nori Chan]

Don't put the rocket jersey on Fishy. Just come back and retire and there will be a spot for you on the bench as a coach.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Kobe is going to be on ESPN 710 in LA at 2pm.

 

[Redux]

Finally glad Ramon Sessions has been traded. Loading up on the picks. Walton, and Kapono whatever. Gives Kyrie more vets to work with.

 

[Shadow780]

He never won without Shaq either...until he did.

I have this feeling the Rockets just wanted the pick and are gonna cut Fisher at some point.

Don't get too happy just yet, Laker fans.

Don't do this to Konex!

BAHAWWWWW

 

[wario]

wait...George Hill got traded????????????????????

jordan hill

 

[Herpes Reasons]

@SamAmicoFSO
Michael Beasley will remain a Timberwolf. And Ray Allen a Celtic. And, yes, JJ Hickson a King.

oh well

 

[rage1973]

He never won without Shaq either...until he did.

I have this feeling the Rockets just wanted the pick and are gonna cut Fisher at some point.

Don't get too happy just yet, Laker fans.

Already stated that Fisher can't go back to the Lakers even if bought out.

 

[DY_nasty]

Blazers won.

 

[flyover]

So, who are the Blazers going to cut? They have to have too many players after those moves, right?

Blazers won.

I think so, too.

 

[Red Blaster]

Blazers won.

Didn't get rid of the cancers

 

[darkside31337]

Dave McMenamin ‏ mcten
Kobe is scheduled to go on the "Mason & Ireland Show" on @710ESPN this afternoon. Should be must-listen stuff to hear his Fisher thoughts

Can't wait.
