NBA Trade Deadline Winners and Losers
The NBA trade deadline has come and gone with D'Angelo Russell, Andre Iguodola and more on the move. The Crossover breaks downs the biggest winners and losers from a busy day.
We are officially one NBA trade deadline closer to a climate-related apocalypse. Despite expectations for a mundane deadline, the Association saw a bevy of moves Thursday. Some trades were actually big—D’Angelo Russell for Andrew Wiggins!—while others were hardly worthy of bomb status—James Ennis to the Magic? We’re not going to run through every trade right now, but we are going to run through some WINNERS and LOSERS. Let’s hit it.
Winner: Clippers
After Andre Iguodala was taken off the board, Marcus Morris quickly became the apple of Los Angeles’s eye. The Clips outbid the Lakers in the sweepstakes with a fairly underwhelming offer, acquiring Morris for a back-of-the-first-round draft pick and some glorified salary fodder. Not only do the Clippers get a versatile forward who can shoot from outside and defend multiple positions, they keep that exact kind of player away from the Lakers. The Clips are already 2–0 against their intracity rival, are 2nd in the West despite treating the regular season like a 82-game scrimmage, and they probably have the most depth of any team in the league. Not bad!
Loser: Lakers
Rob Pelinka can still make some useful additions to this team via the buyout market. Darren Collison would be a really useful pickup! And I understand not wanting to make major changes to a team that is first in the conference. But by the virtue of the Clippers getting better and the Lakers standing pat, the Lakers are hurting a little bit today. It’s not over. And the Clips aren’t an extra mega favorite after today. But the Lakers will have a little catching up to do post-Deadline.
Winner: Andre Iguodala
I would love to get paid millions of dollars to not even have to show up to the same city in which I’m expected to work! Iguodala got everything he wanted this season. He never suited up for the Grizzlies, and now he gets to play a third of the season for a contending Heat team, with a big extension to boot. You may call into question the ethics of Iguodala’s situation. But he may call into question the ethics of trades. Both sides have good points if you ask me!
Loser: Danilo Gallinari photoshops
Gallo is staying put in OKC after being heavily linked to the Heat. Sorry to all the people who decided it was worth seeing what he looked like in a Miami jersey and followed through with a graphic. (I’m not sure how many of these people are actually out there but if they exist they deserve to be recognized.)
