    Nah, I disagree. You make a deal when their stocks are high. We've been playing "winnable teams" which has led to some wins, other than that Orlando game...cold shiver.

    Lets not get it twisted fam, I love the development, but we ain't close to a legit contender. Strike a deal if the return meets your bottomline and allows you to remain somewhat competitive.

    Lets say we held off on the DLo deal. Moz is probably joining Deng in the queue at the bank. DLo is probably sitting his a** on the bench recuperating dem knees, while avoiding eye contact with Zo, BI and Magic. Meanwhile Dinwiddie is blowing BK up with his play and then we go pick up the phone and find out, yeah they probably won't take Moz along with DLo, cause the Lakers were dimwitted to not pull the trigger earlier.

    Thanks, but no thanks. I rather join MozDeng in line and cash these checks now.

    Jules and JC are helping us win games; I don't prefer to backslide for the possibilities of what might happen this summer as I mentioned. Yes, they are winnable games; their also games we weren't winning last year, and we have a chance to eclipse our win total for the last 5 years.

    Agree to disagree. I'd figure it out during the summer if I'm Mitch and Rob unless a no-brainer type of deal comes across the table; but that better be for an impact player if that's the case, and I doubt it is .

    Reports are that the Cavs are willing to trade the Brooklyn pick for a young, controllable asset.

    The Lakers should get involved.

    Good luck getting a 1st there. Anyone giving up a first for Smart doesn't deserve a first.

    Why do you announce it to the world? Have a nice last half of your season Marcus.

    If true, we'll regret it. I was mad at the DLO trade (over it now), will be furious when Jules is gone for some dumb s***...

    It better be worth something worthwhile because randle is helping us win some games.

    One of our targets last summer is requesting out of Minny.





    Pelinka used to represent him when he was an agent and we were considering offering the room exception amount of 4.3M to him. His current contract is an expiring 1.5M, with a player option of 1.8M next year.

    Never been a big fan of the Bazz but he would be a cheap way to replace some of Clarkson’s scoring off the bench once we trade him.

    And going back to the evil empire...they're interested in Tyreke Evans and Lou Will.

    Meanwhile OKC is interested in Avery Bradley. I just don't see how they can get him. The next available 1st round pick they can include in any trade is their 2024 pick and if they were to include it, they can't put any protections on it, so it would be an unprotected pick. Trading for Bradley would mean they have to trade Patterson's and Abrines' 3 year deal...so I don't see how they could get him. I guess that's Presti's problem.

    Also Allen is getting re-routed. OKC is rumored to be interested in him as well.

    If you're doing this, that's fine w/me, but you better start developing Zu or Bryant; additionally, making a determination on who you want to invest in the future with...

    I bet Pelicans go after him if picked up.

    Could be of interest to many playoff teams.

    We’re not using him very well, so I bet he’s be totally open to the idea.
