Let's combine 2 "rumors' together. Philly is reportedly looking for a backup big as well as seeing what Thybulle can bring back.
What about this?
Philly trades Thybulle
Dallas trades McGee + 2025 Second.

On Thursday, Yahoo Sports NBA insider Jake Fischer revealed on his “Please Don’t Aggregate This” podcast that the word around the league is that the team is willing to move ace defender Alex Caruso. However, the asking price is shockingly high and is currently set at two first-round draft picks.
WTF?
1.) 27 Jan 2023 19:31:34
I am starting to think that these ridiculous demands from teams for their players were impacted by the Rudy Gobert trade.
2.) 28 Jan 2023 00:09:52
Teams are nuts. This can’t be real.
I blame Toronto. Seems like they started the “I’m going to ask for a superstar return for a role player” nonsense.
3.) 28 Jan 2023 00:15:12
2 1sts for a bench player. I wouldn’t trade for anyone ever again.
4.) 29 Jan 2023 16:42:55
why "blame" anyone? It's really a simple equation. if you want to trade a player you test the market and settle on the best offer. if you don't want to trade a player you set a very high price to let other teams know you want to keep him and they'd better be willing to pay if they want to talk. Clearly Chicago is saying that they would deal Caruso but they would be quite happy to keep him. Caruso would be a valuable player for any numnber of contenders, but Chicago can wait and trade him in the offseason or at the next deadline, so they will only take a trade they feel would make them better in the long run.

“The Magic are welcoming trade inquiries for Mo Bamba, Gary Harris, Terrence Ross and R. J. Hampton ahead of the deadline, league sources say, ” writes Stein. “Ross is a player, sources say, rival teams are monitoring as a potential buyout candidate if no trade materializes. ”
So what they are saying in a nut shell is that Ross has no real trade value. The others probably don't have much more than a second rounder value as well.
1.) 27 Jan 2023 15:49:37
Nah we can’t lose Ross for nothing
Just send Terrence & RJ Hampton to Lakers
For Patrick Beverley & Max Christie + Second Round Pick.
2.) 27 Jan 2023 16:01:58
We’ve said that all along too.
3.) 27 Jan 2023 19:33:26
What value does Ross and Hampton brings to the Lakers that is better than what Pat Bev and Christie could give? If you can explain that clearly to their management then they could consider.

@JakeLFischer
Interesting wrinkle here: Have learned a Phoenix-Milwaukee-Washington three-team concept, that would have sent Rui to Suns, Crowder to Bucks and three seconds plus salary to Washington, helped set the price for the Lakers’ acquisition of Hachimura.
To be fair, the Lakers 2nds are probably better.

There’s a “rising belief” around the NBA that the Jazz will be open to listening on any players on their roster besides Lauri Markkanen and Walker Kessler at the trade deadline. – via Marc Stein @
Kinda left out what the asking price is for these "available" players is.

Irving, who's in the final year of a deal that pays him $36.9 million, has been seeking a new contract in the neighborhood of four years and $198.5 million, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.
There is no way that I would offer this to this dude.
1.) 05 Feb 2023 08:52:15
I hope he go's to dallas
It's their chance to get that second star.
2.) 05 Feb 2023 12:05:15
I hope Dallas as well but I don't think it would go well.
3.) 05 Feb 2023 14:46:58
I wonder how much chaos this is going to cause in the trade deadline market. How many teams are going to wait out the Nets decision? And how many teams will now switch targets and try to get KD? If the Nets just settle for the best they can get right now for Irving, will that impact the value of other players on the market?
4.) 05 Feb 2023 19:25:10
well that didn't have much life to it, did it? surprised he acted so quickly but kudos to sean marks for getting something worthwhile out of a bad situation. i do think it will hurt their chances though. can they keep KD or is he the next to demand out.
5.) 05 Feb 2023 19:52:09
Man, Kings have a back-2-back against Dallas next week. Couldn't have waited a week on this?
6.) 05 Feb 2023 23:16:27
Luka & Kyrie duo isn’t gonna work they both want ball in their hands to be successful it’s bad trade for Mavericks.
7.) 06 Feb 2023 02:38:13
Will the “they both want the ball” narrative ever die? It’s never actually been true. Some guys are too stupid/ selfish to play with other guys. But you need more than one ball handler to win, you need more than one volume scorer to win.
8.) 06 Feb 2023 08:46:10
Irving-Lebron worked.

Does MD really has a basketball knowledge?
10.) 06 Feb 2023 15:52:14
Is Kyrie going to br willing to be Luka's Robin?

The NBA All-Star reserves were announced Thursday, and neither Kings star De'Aaron Fox nor Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards made the cut.
While there's a case to be made for both players as All-Stars, Edwards couldn't believe Fox wasn't named to the roster.
"I didn't even watch it. I knew I wasn't going to get in, " Edwards told reporters Friday. "I was more surprised De'Aaron Fox didn't get in. "
02 Feb 2023 23:25:05
JJJ over Fox? ARE YOU F***ING SERIOUS?
1.) 03 Feb 2023 03:02:36
Yeah that was the biggest disappointment of this allstar game.
2.) 03 Feb 2023 09:11:40
Ant was way more deserving.
3.) 03 Feb 2023 17:06:39
Look at Ant's numbers in October and November. Those are not "deserving. "
October 7 Games 36.4 mins 23.0 pts 6.1 rebs 4.4 asts .459 FG% .345 3FG% .643 FT%
November 15 Games 36.5 mins 22.8 pts 5.5 rebs 3.5 asts .463 FG% .345 3FG% .810 FT%
In relation to Fox's splits
October 6 Games 30.8 mins 24.5 pts 6.0 rebs 4.8 asts
.548 FG% .387 3FG% .840 FT%
November 13 Games 32.4 mins 23.8 pts 4.5 rebs 6.5 asts .516 FG% .391 3FG% .817 FT%
so during the first 2 months of the season, Fox was "doing" (higher stats) in less minutes per game. The scary thing is if the stats were adjusted to "per 36 mins", Edwards stats would actually decrease while Fox's would pull even farther away.
But I get it, most people dont really remember the first couple of months of the season. However, if you look at the ENTIRITY of the season, there is a clear leader in the Fox-Edwards comparison.

Too bad that they are mixing up the rostersfor the Rising Stars game.

ESPN Sources: After orchestrating a remarkable franchise renaissance, Sacramento Kings GM Monte McNair has agreed on a contract extension. Under McNair, who was in final months of his deal, Kings are third in West and on cusp of ending a 16-year postseason absence
Best news of the day for the upcoming Executive of the Year.

@Carl especially considering the earliest 2nds Portland can trade is a 2024 and a 2027.
05 Feb 2023 19:53:16
Seems reasonable until you realize Danny Ainge is sitting on the other side of the table.
05 Feb 2023 11:06:05
That is a super easy pass by Spurs.
04 Feb 2023 13:05:06
I would think Will Barton would want to go back to Denver where he had his greatest success and gets more open shots playing with a passer like Jokic.
03 Feb 2023 16:42:20
I feel like the Kings would be willing to offer better than that in a Holmes-Oubre swap with better 2nd rounders included from Sacramento.
06 Feb 2023 15:52:14
Is Kyrie going to br willing to be Luka's Robin?
06 Feb 2023 15:51:17
@psiphon. I think the Nets wanted players who could play with Durant in order to keep Durant more than future picks. Players are not exactly what the Lakers have to offer.
05 Feb 2023 19:54:13
Just curious how quickly Irving heals from his calf injury.
05 Feb 2023 19:52:09
Man, Kings have a back-2-back against Dallas next week. Couldn't have waited a week on this?
05 Feb 2023 19:50:32
Fox and AD a going to be the replacements.
Unless they do some funny business saying Kyrie is filling Curry's slot.
