    Neal for picks wouldn't work if we already have a 15 man roster. I can't even find anything on realgm

    This is what the op on realgm said " Just saw it on ESPN's ticker at the bottom. For two future 2nd's."

    He's a career 39% 3 point shooter. But at 6'4" he is just a shooting guard. We'll need a backup SG if Lin is traded. Don't see it as a high priority otherwise. Would say well it only cost us two seconds but we all know what morey does with 2nd rd picks. Probably our own seconds and e keep the Knicks picks please.

    Morey probably remembers this...

    I wanted him before the season. He's the back up SG shooter we need.

    Hope it's true.

    Neal remains likely to be dealt at the trade deadline, as both he and the Bucks seem to be actively pursuing a deal, Yahoo! Sports reports.

    Spin: After signing with the Bucks over the summer, Neal's role with the club quickly diminished, and he currently finds himself in and out of the rotation on a nightly basis. He's sat out 23 games this season (some due to injury, but most DNP-CDs) and is shooting just 38.9 percent from the field, though he's averaging a career-high 10.2 points per game. Regardless, Neal does not appear to be a part of Milwaukee's long-term plans, and it would be a surprise if he's on the roster after the Feb. 20 deadline. The Bucks are apparently engaged in trade discussions with multiple teams, and it's likely a contender in need of a shooter off the bench will take a flyer on the 29-year-old.


    Sounds like they just described the Rockets. Do the Rockets have a trade exception because they have nothing to trade that matches Neal's salary of 3.2 mil? Has to be more players involved.

    That can't be the deal. Neal makes $3.25 million. It would take multiple players (not named Lin or Asik) to make salaries match, and Brewer and Smith aren't enough. I'm calling BS.

    at least real gm forums could have come up with a more fantasy induced trade scenario. Greg smith+ brewer traded for Blake griffin. If it didn't happen, I'd rather it be spectacular bs than neal.
