    Maybe that will impinge upon him a little bit as to his actual value or lack of. At some point, you have to look at yourself and go "maybe I am causing some of this"

    Same thought I posted yesterday (I think). You have to move him. As soon as this all got as public as it has been the the past week, there's no coming back. We are too depleted of assets just to let him walk or to send him home. You need to get something for him.

    Caruso would be the perfect guy to start at the 2 if we got Kyrie... Tough to get over that.

    It's good that we're putting pressure and a deadline on Marks. Time for Rob to close.

    It's good that we have a plan B.

    It's not good that our plan B is Buddy and Gordon. Don't really like or want either. Rob needs to take a cold shower before negotiating with the Pacers.

    Except that a Prius is somewhat reliable. Gordon can't clear 60 games a season. haha

    I want no part of Eric Gordon, who if he gets 500 minutes (which even for him SHOULD be rather easy) it makes his 2nd year and $20.9 million option guaranteed....

    Pelinka should be shot if he chooses that (even with the need of shooting) over just riding it out with Westbrook for a final season, as ugly as that prospect is.

    Don't want Heild and his 2 yrs and 40 million either unless it is sending Turner back our way (which I guess could be possible if they offer sheet Ayton)....more than likely though Phenix tries a sign and trade...

    Truth is neither is a good package (Houston has nothing else they would trade of interest to me and I doubt Myles is in the Heild deal)

    No, it is Irving or bust for me.......

    I suggest the 2 GMs get drunk at this meeting, then they could do some real talking, instead of bunch of discreet posturing.

    Brian Windhorst seems like a good guy, but that guy better start taking better care of himself. He seems really heavy right now.

    Brooklyn is crazy. I guess you might as well ask for the moon. Tbh..I don't think anyone is going to give up two high end young guys for KD and multiple draft picks.
