    That makes you worse and by a good margin. The Bogi shooting numbers are scary bad and Capela has aged

    I'm not trading Vanderbilt for that. As a matter of fact, I'd trade Rui and Finney-Smith before I traded Vanderbilt.

    Vando and Reaves are keepers. On excellent contracts to boot.

    Claxton 6’11” 215lbs. Better not be coming to us if this guy knows anything. :sick: Don’t care how good or not.

    Bogdonovic and Capella? How bad are we being gutted to make salaries work? Ay yay yay. Getting nervous now.

    Never heard of this guy either, so we can almost certainly count out anything he posts. It's that time of the year where all the NBA "insiders" come out to play to claim all these potential deals that never happen. Eric Zhang looking to follow in the footsteps of Jake Fischer, Evan Sidery, and others who aggregate news and report on it.

    I'm not saying some of these guys don't have some level of contacts in front offices, but they never report breaking rumors that actually happen. Not shooting the messenger here Slick, I just get triggered by so many of these hacks, especially around the deadline.

    But the SA - Fox stuff does seem to be picking up steam...





    Lot of the SA fan accounts vouch for him too

    Then there's this




    Both those are in the local SA media, latter is on NBA TV on occasion

    only issue with vando is career-long injury absences. otherwise, yes--he's worth near twice his contract. reaves may be worth almost thrice his.

    Vando is great and i love the guy but when it's PO's time, you're playing 4 on 5, since his defender just helps all the time. Now, when he makes a three or two, things change a lot, so lets all hope he finds his shot... and we make the playoffs :D

    Here's the highlights:

    I don't like what we lose defensively unless we add Fultz. Bogi can handle some and even struggling, he's probably what JJ wants DK to be this year regarding play comprehension.


    Depending on cost, I'd be interested. I don't see how we get there in a 2 team deal. We're $4.5m short if it's the package above + Rui and that's a 4 player for 2 player trade.
