1:48
The Celtics will acquire Jordan Crawford for Fab Melo according to David Aldridge.  Finally a deadline day deal!

12:08
Under 3 hours left till deadline, Clippers may be going back to reengage the Celtics in trade talks.  Kings say they won't trade Tyreke or Boogie, although Tyreke is likely gone in off season so they should consider a trade.

11:38
Marc Stein has reported that the C's are kicking the tires with Tyreke Evans.  So much for Sacramento holding still at the deadline

11:23
Woj is reporting that San Antonio is a serious contender for JJ Redick

10:45
10:19
ESPN Chris Broussard Reports Celtics, in offering Fab Melo have targeted Wizards guard Jordan Crawford.  More if anything develops.

10:15 AM
10:15AM
A lot of buzz this morning to sort thorugh, but it looks like this:
1. Atlanta is going to move Josh Smith.  Milwaukee isthe front runner with Houston as the Dark Horse.
2. JJ Redick also looks to be on the move.  Indiana and Miwaukee are being aggressive.  Woj is reporting that Orlando has secured first round picks for him, but waiting to hear best offer.
3.  Celtics are quiet, too quiet....
4. Beno Udrih may be traded from Milwaukee to Dallas, Marc Stein Reports.

8:12
We have two seperate trades to report:
1. Houston sends Marcus Morris to Phoneix for 2nd rd pick
2. Houston sends Patrick Patterson, Cole Aldrich, and Toney Douglas as well as cash to Sacramento for Thomas Robinson, Tyler Honeycut, Francisco Garcia and a future 2nd.
Ok, now we are getting somewhere.
Rapid Reaction is that Houston gets the best player, but sacrifices some depth at PF.  There team could be scary in the future.  Sacramento saves money cause they like to do that.  Phoenix i guess is a big winner giving up little for a nice rotation piece.
7:58
Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting that Morris has been traded to Phoenix for a future second round pick.  He also reported Thomas Robinson was on the move.  More to come

7:18
Marcus Morris is Inactive for tonight's game, Rockets supposedly weighing options between two trades.  This would be the sixth straight year Morey makes a trade.  We will keep you updated when word drops to his destination.

6:52PM
-Pacers' GM Kevin Pritchard ADAMENTLY stating that Danny Granger is not on the trading block, per Alex Kennedy of Hoops World.

6:47 PM
-Many reports are stating(including David Aldridge) that it seems as though the Clippers are going to stay put. If so, many rumors around Bledsoe would presumably stay that way, as rumores. Also, Sports Illustrated is reporting that Brandon Jennings has been taken off the table within trade discussions.


5:12
Adrian Wojnarowski has said that the Nets have made an offer for Paul Pierce.  The offer of Humphries, Brooks, and a first was not enough to entice the C's.

5:05
Ken Berger has listed Gerald Henderson as a target for the Celtics.  The Bobcats want a first in return.  Fab Melo, Barbosa, and a 1st would likely get it done.  Could the Celtics find a way to also pry away Ramon Sessions with the value of their first round pick and include Brandon Bass in the deal? A lot of questions here, but no GM is working harder than Danny Ainge this time of year. More to come......

3:45 2/20/13
A couple updates of the latest buzz we've heard.
1. The Hornets and Warriors are discussing a possible Eric Gordon for Klay Thompson trade.  The Hornets would have to take back a bad contract in return (either Biedrins or Jefferson).
2. Celtics are offering Fab Melo in return for help at the Guard Position.  Look for Sacramento to be a possible trade partner according to Joe Kaiser at ESPN. Aaron Brooks or Jimmer could be coming back to Boston in such a scenario.
3. Derick Williams is up for grabs in Minny.  The Twolves are said to be after Paul Milsap as well.

2:33 2/20/13
The latest rumors have the league waiting for word on a Josh Smith deal.  Once/if a trade for Smith goes down, the rest of the dominoes may start to fall as well.  The latest buzz for Smith is that the Hawks are determined to move him as he is not expected to resign in the offseason and they want to acquire some pieces before he bolts.  The team that looks to have the biggest edge is the Milwaukee Bucks,  who can offer Monta Ellis as the centerpiece returning to Atlanta.  The problem is that Hawks want a young player like John Henson to be included, but the Bucks refuse to include him.  Jennings, Henson, and Sanders have been determined off limits for the Bucks.

The other big storyline is whether the Celtics will decide to blow things up and rebuild for the future or bolster the roster for a postseason run.  The ball in in your court Danny Ainge, and no one has a clue what you will do.

We will be updating any rumors we here right here on our trade deadline buzz page, check in frequently for updated.
