[BREAKING NEWS] Clippers trade Norman Powell to Heat, get John Collins in three-team deal with Jazz

We’ve got breaking news out of the NBA where the Clippers, Jazz, and Heat have agreed to a big time threete team trade. ESPN reporting that Norman Pal will be heading to Miami. John Collins sent to LA. In the deal also will see Kevin Love, Kyle Anderson in a 2027 second round pick head to Utah. Pal’s coming off the best scoring year of his career. Average just under 22 points per game with the Clippers. Collins meanwhile had a good year 19 points, eight boards, but was limited to just 40 games due to a multitude of injuries. So that is the trade and this is where we get going with the conversation bringing in our NBA expert Brad Botkin and Brad I first saw this trade I was like oh ok this is something what’s your reaction? Yeah, I love this trade for for both sides. You know, Miami throughout this offseason, it kind of seems like this is the way for Miami every offseason where it feels like they’re reaching a little bit. It feels like they’re sort of on that treadmill of mediocrity and and kind of won’t give it up and just kind of go into a rebuild. And then they go and they get Norman P really for almost nothing. Kevin Love, Kyle Anderson. Um, this is to to get a guy who’s going to average 20 points a game or or did with the Clippers last year, I think over 21. Um, we’ll see what he does in the Heat in the Heat program. But this is a guy who’s a 42% three-point shooter. I thought he should have been an Allstar last year. Uh to get this kind of player at this stage of the game for the Heat when the free agency market is basically all dried up. They’ve tried the Bradley Beal situation out. They’ve fell out of those talks. They’re in the market for Kevin Durant. It just seems like nothing’s going to happen for them and they’re going to go into next season with Tyler Hero and Bam Bio and and a team that even in the Eastern Conference can’t feasibly compete for anything meaningful. To add Norman Powell again an all-star level player. Um this is a fantastic get for the Miami Heaton and I like it for the for the Clippers side as well. Yeah. I want to go back a little bit more to the heat. Like how do they pull this off? They send away two guys on the bench who would sometimes get DMPs and get back a star level caliber player. How? Because the Clippers don’t want to commit to paying him next year. So P’s on the books for I think 20 million this year somewhere right around there. And he’s a restricted free agent next year. Unrestricted free agent. So they’re getting out ahead of potentially having to give him a major major salary boost with the way he played last year and presuming how he’s going to play this year. So Miami will have a situation to deal with next summer and we’ll see how PAL works out. But for the time being they get him at this price because the Clippers are adding front court depth. They like what they have um in the back court enough and they’re willing to let PO go to not have to deal with uh the salary ramifications potentially next year as a as a free agent. Yeah. That uh graphic here Norman P. This is what it would have looked like for the Clippers books. Had they kept Powell, now instead they bring in John Collins, a guy who’s coming off averaging 19 and8 this past season, shooting 39% from three point land. Um, so how was this for the Clippers? Uh, you get rid of a guard, you ring back a forward who still can play and now leaves the Exodus of the youth movement that seems to be continuing over in Utah. Yeah, no question. I actually love the move for the Clippers just as much. They are really bolstering their front court depth. They go out and they get Brook Lopez and then they bring in John Collins here who everybody lost track of in Utah. You know, he kind of fell off the rails after Atlanta. He he felt like almost a guy a couple of times was being talked about in buyout situations. He was just making way too much money for for what he’s producing. You look up, he’s a 19 and guy. He’s almost back to a 40% threep shooter. Uh this is a guy that really helps uh the Clippers front court dep. They’re adding a lot of versatility, a lot of lineup versatility. And and again with the Brook Lopez acquisition, I I think the Clippers knew they had to clean their books up a little bit. Uh they don’t want to deal with PO in the offseason. very very good player. I I really think that for both sides this is a very good trade. I would I would grade this probably in A for both sides. I’m going to delve a little bit deeper into that grading bag in a second. Uh but first I want to touch on the jazz since they are a part of this. Does this move mean anything for them? Will uh Kevin loves see this court Kyle Anderson the draft picks what is the allure of this move for Utah? Yeah, maybe again they’re just I think they’re just not kind of dealing with the with the Colin situation. They’re they’re uh they’re putting a few picks in their in their holster here and and we’ll see what Utah does. You know, I think the bigger questions with Utah is that they’ve gotten rid of Sexon. Are they are they going to kind of try to keep this what they’ve been to get working toward with Markin? Are they going to fully tear this thing down and you know they get Ace Bailey and are they going to what what kind of they’re sort of stuck a little bit. They have a lot of assets, a lot of firep if they want to go out and actually make some meaningful moves. But at the moment, they’re working around the margins. They seem to be stock piling and and I don’t think they’ve probably made a decision on Lor marketing yet. Uh I think they probably play that into the year, take it up to the trade deadline and and just kind of see where they stand. They clearly don’t have a move in store right now that they want to dip both feet into the water in. So they continue to operate around the margins and and Danny Angel is not going to do anything until he’s ready to do it. Uh so you mean you know in terms of what this means for the Jazz right now I think you just basically nothing. You kind of have to just wait and see what the Jazz are going to do over the next six months if they do anything by the trade deadline. Hey Brad it’s just the Walter Clayton Jr. and Ace Bailey show in Utah. That’s what we can look forward to seeing bad. Bad and I’m not mad at that at all. Now I need you to put on that professor cap and let’s get you to grave the trade for both sides. We’ll say here I want you to look at the clippers what they get and then also for the heat. I I I let’s start with the Clippers. I I give it an A. It It does hurt to lose Nor, but when your offense is going to revolve around James Harden uh and Kawai Leonard, you’re going to be okay from from the scoring department. But they have really really bolstered their front court depth. That was really obviously a priority for them coming into this offseason to score Brook Lopez. I mean, you think about what Milwaukee gave up to to go and bring in Miles Turner. Brook Lopez is, yes, at his age a diminished version of Miles Turner, but you look at the difference and cost to get Brook Lopez at where they got him and then add John Collins again a 20 and seven guy basically. You know, I mean, you’re talking about a big time producer who now goes to a situation where he doesn’t have to be the second or even third best player. And that’s big for John Cons. He he was not able to graduate up the ranks in terms of a hierarchy on a team and really be a go-to player. That’s where he fell into do too deep a water for him. He was making that kind of money but was never able to really be that. Now he finds himself in a position where he can be in a support staff position and he almost look at it like an Aaron Gordon uh in in Denver who was overtasked with being a number one or number two player in Orlando. But but great athlete, great versatility and you put him in a situation where he can be sort of that topin support staff player and he thrives. And I think John Collins is in a situation where he could potentially sort of mirror what Aaron Gordon has done. I don’t think he’s as good as Gordon, but in terms of the fit, I think that that’s something that he can find with the Clippers to not have to be the go-to guy, the front court depth. So I I give it an A for the Clippers. No question. And then for the Heat, what grade would you give them? I need a letter from you. Yeah, I think it’s an A2. I mean, look, they didn’t have to give up much. They’re going to have to worry about Norman P next year, but they can worry about that next year. How much they want to pay him then to get this is this is an obvious a to me. Unless I’m missing something, you’re getting a 22 point scorer, a 42% threep shooter, an all-star level player for basically nothing. I mean, you’re not worried about Kevin Love or Kyle Anderson. Now, you can go into next year. I don’t think this makes them a contender, but in the Eastern Conference, pretty much anyone can believe anything they want to tell themselves. You go with Abio, Hero, and now Norman Pal. I mean, you’ve got legitimate firep. You still got Andrew Wigans on the roster. Um the heat go out and make themselves viable in in a wide open eastern conference for things to break their way again for basically no cost, you know. So the Clippers want to are worried about next year, but the Heat are worried about right now. Um and are the Heat done? You know, we’re going to talk about Bradley Be a little bit, but but maybe they can get him at a at a cut rate discount. You know, I just think that in terms of what they had to give up to get him, if they had gone out and swung big and given up a bunch for Norman P and then he’s going to be a free agent next year anyway, then you look at it a little differently. But they didn’t give up anything. They get at that price, Norman is a steel for this year at least. So I give them an A Brad given out two A for the trade. If I had you as a professor when I was a student at Florida, I probably would have stayed in engineering and never would have made the move over to broadcasting. I’m glad I did. I’m glad that Brad Bill was a gator while I was still living in Gainesville. And maybe now he could be looking to live somewhere else because the reports out there is that he is cây ra thin chào tất cả các bạn đã quay trở lại với kênh YouTube của mình.

  1. Great move for the HEAT. Like an A+++
    They desperately needed to do something. They have now shed Alec Burks, Duncan Robinson, Kyle Anderson and love and got a borderline Allstar big time playmaker. If they can somehow get another solid player they’re in the mix in a weak east. Need to trade Rozier

  2. Norman Powell is also 5 years older than John Collins. Clippers are banking on getting Bradley Beal after a buyout. We’ll see. Good move for both the Heat and Clips.

  3. They need a retirement party lebron kd curry kd chicken cp3 gotta go they wasted money ol wash up over paid let the young guys play thank you you'll made enough money
