Why are teams dumb enough to continue trading for Rudy Gay and that terrible contract?

How does this possibly help the Kings?

I think the Raptors have more talent, and that team is terrible.

I like Cousins and Gay. I think the Kings have potential to make some noise. Gay is a really good player with an awful salary.

If the Bulls had Rose and Gay instead of Rose and Deng then they'd win the championship.

Offensively that would really help. I think they would take a step back defensively though.

That's fine. Thibs' work on that end will compensate for Deng's loss. Remember they became the best defensive team with only two noteworthy players on that end in the starting lineup: Deng and Noah.

The big question here is what does Gay think of post game handshakes

Since the Rudy Gay trade, the Raptors are 8-3. This can't be a coincidence. The Kings on the other hand, are 4-7.

Bum...

The same reason bad left handed relievers never seem to disappear in baseball. Everyone thinks they can change them and there are few to chose from.

If he could play 10-15 minutes a night for the Heat, that would pretty much lock-up another title for them. Lebron, Wade, and Riley would keep him in line. For a minimum deal, what do the Heat have to lose? Joel Anthony?

not sure how I feel about this JR Smith shoelace-untying drama
on one hand, it is pretty funny
on the other hand, if a player were to not notice it happened then trip , fall and injure themselves i'm sure no one involved would think it was too funny

we need to bring back the hot foot....now THAT is comedy gold

JR SMith is an idiot - he is now out about 325K in fines this year.

well yeah, there's no question he's a moron

and last night on Gametime , Kenny Smith was incredulous about the 50K fine and kept repeating it over and over...50K????? well....(theoretically) isn't the point of a fine to deter someone from doing that same thing again? shit they should have fined him 100K

They should have had their laces double knotted

Toney Douglas presently the happiest fella on the Earth ...

If you were expecting this to be another ordinary Wednesday in the NBA, three teams had another thing coming for you. The Miami Heat, Boston Celtics and Golden State Warriors all gathered together and pulled the trigger on a three team deal that sent Jordan Crawford and MarShon Brooks to Golden State, as well as Toney Douglas to the Heat and Joel Anthony to the Celtics.

The trade was announced early Wednesday afternoon and comes on the heels of trade rumors involving the Warriors search for guard depth.

Miami entering talks was a late development, as the trade was initially announced by Adrian Wojnarowski as being between the Celtics and Warriors. Miami entered talks to help balance things out as they are sending a draft pick to Boston along with Joel Anthony.

As part of three team trade, Toney Douglas will go to the Miami Heat, league source tells Yahoo Sports. Joel Anthony goes to Boston.

From Miami, Boston will also receive Philadelphia’s projected future first-round pick and a future second round pick, league source tells Y

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@WojYahooNBA)

Interestingly enough, Crawford was a name being rumored as going to the Heat earlier in the season, and while the Heat are involved in a trade that sends Crawford to another team, he isn’t heading to Miami. Still, the Heat have added guard depth with the veteran Douglas and everyone seems to have won in this three-way deal.

The Heat need a center. I understand it was a salary dump that will save them money this year and next but they didn't make their team better.

Pretty sure this was just a proactive move prior to signing Bynum.
