Media sure thinks so.

A lot of stars want to move and it's a deep draft so it's a recipe for a lot of trades.

Will Odom be traded today?

He's a free agent.

No, he isn't. Mavs have the rights to him.

A couple trade rumors out there now. Lakers shopping Gasol...again. Bobcats claiming they have 5 offers for the 2nd pick.

My bad, thought they had released him.

No but they have until tomorrow to pickup his contract for next season. But they gave his agent permission to seek a trade and if they can't find one by tomorrow they are asking to extended the deadline until he finds a trade.

Why would they want to extend it? he was hopeless for them.

They want to extend the deadline so Lamar doesn't become a FA and they get shit in return. If they don't extend it and Lamar doesn't find a trade by tomorrow then they get nothing.

Didn't realize we already have 1 trade today, so the "none" option is no longer valid.
Rockets again.

Continuing to improve their draft assets, the Houston Rockets have traded the No. 14 pick and Samuel Dalembert to the Milwaukee Bucks for the 12th selection, Shaun Livingston, Jon Leuer and Jon Brockman.

They didn't give up much for him anyway and they wont get much for him.

Thunder are thinking of trading James Harden for the 2nd pick

I think they will settle for something over nothing.

They are denying it. Just a rumor.

The Utah Jazz have emerged as the potential third team in the Los Angeles Clippers' ongoing trade discussions to acquire Lamar Odom from the Dallas Mavericks, according to sources close to the process.

Sources told ESPN.com that the Jazz are willing to take on Mo Williams in a three-team trade scenario that would send Odom to the Clippers and enable the Mavericks to shed Odom's salary without taking back any salary.


The ball now is in Williams' court. The trade cannot be completed unless Williams agrees to invoke his $8.5 million player option for next season by Saturday's deadline, which means that the 29-year-old is essentially deciding if he wants to return to the Jazz  where he began his career in 2003-04 -- or test free agency this summer.

Hell yeah, I'm stoked that Pery Jones fell so damn far. I told my buddy last week I thought he was still a top 5 player in this draft. Got him at 28? Steal of the draft. Also Robinson might be the 2nd best player in the draft, Kings should be very happy.

Someone lied to you. Jones went where he was supposed to. He's not aggressive and can't be physical.

I hope Robinson kills it in the NBA. His story is a sad one and he looks like he deserves success.

His evaluation last year was closer to what he really is. You will see.
