I'd love to see him back the Clippers as currently, the Clippers need someone who can bring energy on the court.
Still remember the last time when Leonard was injured but the Clippers still managed to reach the WCF, it's their first time actually, and have you known that Beverly has done a big part in that success?
Well, Clippers is packed up and that's going to be a good team if he ever goes back there.
The fact that he does not have a big contract, I'm sure the Clippers have a budget to accommodate him.
However, although we might think that Beverly did a huge part in the last time Clippers went to WCF, Beverly after that season was also traded, so why would the Clippers acquire him again?
With all the trading craze that's happening, it's very likely to happen but we'll see if the rumor is true.

Yeah, just realized that there will be another better team that will take him out. And that with that, he'll be able to move along if ever the rumors are true if he's going to be back in Clippers.
Hopefully clippers will be able to to have him, and I also read some article that CP3 wants Melo on the team. How realiable is that?
I've also read that thing about CP3 telling that Suns should also acquire Melo. It's written in some articles and sports publishing websites.

Maybe his hustle will make clippers to think about getting him since in the first place they can use him as major distraction to other teams star player. He is also good contributor in the court maybe this can give a plus points for them to take him back on the rooster. But since there's no strong rumor about this maybe people are just assuming that this will happen so maybe lets see how its goes after the buyout since there are still teams interested to get his service and might we might see him on more better team where he can possibly fit in.

Is it really bad news for PatBev or will this just be another walk in the park?
I mean, this is actually good news as the Magic is far from being a playoff contender and might not even enter the play-in tournament.
This possible buyout will give him a chance to pick teams if ever there will be choices for him. And the Warriors are part of that rumored team who is interested to take PatBev.

I think Terrence Ross is planning to join Phoenix Suns. For the right price, they might squeeze him for a little help on both ends. The Suns already risked too much by saying goodbye to their 2 premier players Bridges and Cam Johnson, maybe Ross will add some spice to their team after getting KD.

There might be more buyouts to come. i.e. WB, Wall.

Under that news and with the same team, Terrence Ross is waived too.

Maybe the Warriors management really like GPII in their organization. They still have Thompson and Poole for the offense in the absence of Steph, it's just that they have issues closing the game for good.
Yeah, that's one part of their failures too. They are known to be good in 3rd quarter but their 4th quarter in their recent games are mostly disappointments.

On another subject, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, I don't know if he loses because of the name or if he plays in Oklahoma, but this year his personal rating is far below the value he deserves. He should definitely be in the top 3 of the mvp candidates. He scored 42 points today, scoring 82% from the field and 95% from the free throws. Flawless.

He's playing in a lottery team with no star teammates. His boosted stats doesn't mean he could be in top 3 in MVP ladder. He's already in Top 10 and that's more than enough.
Jokić has triple double stats and his team is first in the West, he's naturally no.1. Antetokounmpo has 32.3 ppg and 12.4 rpg, Embiid has 33.3 ppg and 10.1 rpg. Tatum and Dončić are other players in Top 5. That list looks fair enough.
Ok, that is a fair point. Can't argue with that. I was just trying to make a point of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's great performance. But, when I think calmly, of course my top 5 candidates for mvp race would be the same. As you have pointed out, his team is far from being a title contender. He can't be in the top mvp race unless he has some 35-40 ppg. But he has a huge potential and with right teammates, he can be in the real mvp race in his career.

Also, I have read that Zion Williamson is injured again while he was training 3-on-3 games. Thankfully, not for too long, only for extra 2-3 weeks. I hate that his potential is being wasted and his good times at 22 years old is passing. This would be his time to improve for the superstar level. I'd really hate to see such potential and excitement from a young player is fade away. I hope he can eat good and be healthy and be one of the most exciting players of the league.

Celtics won the game despite missing 2 of their starters. This team played great defense and the main weapon in their game was their 3-point shooting. I think Memphis needs to improve their rebounding department, and also they love to play one-on-one which makes them very predictable.
The good ball movement is gone, we know that Morant can generate points, but eventually, he'll be tired and will be less accurate.
Who is this Sam Hauser from the Celtics? Cheesy The name isn't that popular, but he scored more than 10 points in his last 4 games.
What's good with the Celtics is their depth. In the playoffs, this is what you need. A good starters and a bunch of role players that can step up. The depth of the Celtics is just way too good because they have players that can step up in absence of their core players. They don't have neither Brown or Smart, but they have players like White, this Hauser player and their newly acquired Muscala who scored double digits. Add as well their three-point shooting which the shot 21/51 for 41.2% from it. How can the Grizzlies allow them to shot 51 tries and make 21 of them?

Many are looking at the Suns right now ever since the KD trade, but let's not forget about the Celtics. I still believe that with their roster, they can dominate the East in the playoffs and has a high chance to go to NBA Finals again.
I agree, Ja Morant has reasons why he is looking at Boston Celtics, right now they are on top of the East, just slightly behind the Bucks who are in a 10 game winning streak.

But I think Celtics is more complete and I would say that their stint in the Finals last year was a blessing for them. Now they are more mature and even if they have a issue in the beginning (coach), they are not that affected and it seems everyone has forgotten that already. And now we have seen players in their bench like Sam Hauser who is contributing, their bench is deep and I think only Milwaukee can match it in the league.

Boston Celtics are at the top of the table right now in the Eastern Conference. And I also do not think that people are actually not interested enough in the Celtics. They are more interested in who is getting traded or not. Sam Hauser is absolutely not very popular, but he is certainly scoring like a popular player for sure.

Celtics is a team that is not dependent on certain players. They are a team that can rely on any player. Almost all of the players in the team have the capability to play well when needed. And that is a certain type of depth that every team aspires to have, Now that is what they are showing. Even without too very important players in the team, they are performing really well and also winning games.

(https://www.nba.com/magic/news/orlando-magic-waive-patrick-beverley-release-20230212)

Actually, that's not bad news since that was already expected, therefore he's expected it too.

There are teams already that show interest in doing a buyout to acquire him.

As far as rumors are concerned, some teams that might be involved are Mavericks or going back to Clippers, or Timberwolves.
That's good to hear if there will be another team that will buy him out.
I'd love to see him back the Clippers as currently, the Clippers need someone who can bring energy on the court.

The Celtics have proven themselves and they're still proving what they can achieve this season. It is that these trades become the center piece attraction of the current time. Can't blame it for it has taken the attention of the majority of the teams.

I'm not familiar with this player but he is given the trust by the Celtics coaching staff. I've watch the game of Celtics against Memphis, and this guy is shooting out lights, he had 6-11 from the deep, such a big contribution from a non starter player.

I confess that I am very surprised with this news and also with other negotiations...

I believe, nowdays Beverly can be an interesting player to have on a team, he is far from his prime, he still manages to do something that can help the team he is playing


The only trade I put my thumbs down was because I thought they had strong bonds in the team and he was really helping to make the game more fun but at the end, he was traded and probably stress about it because based on his post, he wasn't expected about it. Though he will be back will De Agello Russel, the Lakers have a different plan. Now that Westbrook is no longer there and they acquired some decent players to help them, they really need to do better and get to the spot where they will be in the playoff tree this season.

He's actually the type of guy that you don't expect to be making an impact to help the team win games. Though unlike other players, he usually doesn't fill the stat sheets, but he can definitely help the team defensively, and also, he's actually pretty good in getting into someone's head, just like what he did to LeBron before he arrived to the Lakers team.
I'd really want to see his reaction if he wins a championship lol.

Actually he did impact the Lakers? I don't know, but I saw him improving his 3 point shot, there were games that he was instrumental on winning games, like he got one steal, then a 3 point shot, but he both FT, but still he managed to play good defense on the other hand.

But yeah, the problem with Bev is that he is not a a pure point guard and not a scoring. He is known for defense, but he might be definitely out of his prime and now team doesn't see him as a good fit for them and probably could be bouncing around the league if not, no one will take him in the next season.

Actually, that's not bad news since that was already expected, therefore he's expected it too.

There are teams already that show interest in doing a buyout to acquire him.

As far as rumors are concerned, some teams that might be involved are Mavericks or going back to Clippers, or Timberwolves.
Anybody who can remember this picture? An iconic picture when he was still in the Timberwolves isn't it? Cheesy

Anyway, not surprised to see Beverley being waived out by the Magic because I don't see him fitting on that young and talented team. Now with regards to the 3 teams that you shared, I think the Mavericks needed him the most. The Mavs are in need of some defensive minded players and Beverley will be a good addition to the team as he is good in defense. Mavericks must get him somehow in the buyout.

I feel bad for Westbrook and Wall who has significant career and had a big help in their respective teams, but now they are in the buyout market. I mean if you are that helpful with the team, they will not put you in the buyout market. I hope that these 2 players will find a new team this season especially Westbrook who showed a huge adjustment this season and even played off the bench. He might've played awful in the last seasons, but in this season, he is better already.

Ah, WB and John Wall, specially WB, now he has become a trading bait. After his OKC stint, he didn't even last for more than 2 years for any team. So everyone feels  bad for him at this point of his career.

Not just that, but as a Laker, Pat Bev has also some iconic moments too.
