    We will see how good of a negotiator Rob is. I don’t think he should have to get rid of all of our limited assets here.

    Some traction on the third team I’m hearing. Discussions still early but there’s interest in a post LBJ Lakers FRP.

    I am, no way anyone wants him when he’s gonna walk in a season. Add to that he’s already a player that will sit if he’s in a bad mood, if you looked at him funny, if he finally gets convinced the earth is a sphere and needs time to process, etc. His value is that of Westbrook now, an expiring contract. I’m not giving up anything more than Russ and a first and second.

    If we can get Kyrie and Harris for Westbrook and Nunn that’s a win.

    If we can’t land Kyrie, we should pivot to a trade for OG. And sign Warren to the MLE (unless it’s gone) Heck I’d still try to trade for OG even if we get Kyrie.

    Russ/Kyrie - Warren - OG - Lebron - AD

    I actually agree that we shouldn’t be throwing everything out there if these reports are true.

    Pelika & Rambis working the phones more aggressively. Rambis apparently high on THT and does not want to see him go in a 3 team blockbuster.

    No he shouldn't this is better than AD'S situation. He's on his last year and teams aren't bidding for him. Play it cool Rob

    Yeah, you negotiate a good deal for yourself but you don't kick a team while they're done. The Nets are in a s***storm and are probably an insult away from saying f*** everyone, we're sending Kyrie home for the year or trading him to OKC out of spite. This is when you extend an olive branch, offer one or both of the picks and just get it done.

    Why on Kyrie’s flat earth does Rambis have a say in any of this. Absolutely ridiculous

    I like THT but he wouldn’t be a dealbreaker for me. Just depends on what is coming back.

    Rambis WOULD still want THT after this disaster... what a loser. Keep him away from the phone for now and get rid of THT
