    So Zo's camp is suddenly limited to Chicago. Maybe Dunn and Melo are targeted in a Chicago 3teamer for AD.

    Also we could have Zu's replacement?



    Bron really wanted the Cavs to trade for DeAndre last year.

    Hopefully this mean knicks might get Kyrie and Durant, which would tremendously limit BOS willingness to lose their assets if they find out in July the Kyrie is leaving. I mean if Knicks FO is this sure to open up 2 max slots that has to be some noise there now.

    Bulls, Cavs, and Suns are all in that race. One will be left in the cold. Won't be NY. This helps the tank.

    If... that FO has yet to show me anything, But like I just mentioned in my recent post above. Given how quickly this came together for 2 max slots now and they're willingness to do this without any hesitation leads be to believe they know something we don't about who's coming.

    Which would help the Lakers. Lessen GSW's powers (getting KD) and really upsetting BOS and their plan (getting Kyrie).

    DJ, McGee, Chandler, Bron, and AD all seeing time at C? Is that overkill?

    they can still renogade on the trade IF they see something they dont like in the medical as of today but I'm sure you're right, this has probably been in the works for a while now, we all thought Pau trade came out of thin air but we saw the details years later that it was in works way before that day

    I just think if Rich Paul and AD flat out told the C Bags he won't stay, that might cause Ainge to redact some of those pieces, especially Tatum. Which is why New Orleans might have had a change of heart starting today.

    Unless he want's to be that petty and do it anyway to keep him from us.

    Not at all...length kills the Dubs. Plus if he comes here, DJ Ty and McGee will clober a hobbled Boogie.

    Tampering investigation please. Trade came together unnaturally fast, especially with multiple players.

    Although Luke will probably play Davis at C more times than not, AD does prefer to play a more perimeter oriented game at PF.

    Something like:

    Rondo
    Hart
    Lebron
    AD
    DJ

    That's a ridiculously good defensive team, however, we're gonna need to find spacing asap unless we keep KCP.

    I'd actually make it a point to start watching the Pels.

    That trade might get them more fans than they've ever had

    Why did Dallas do this deal then?

    Ziggy is just going to bounce after next year.

    Cuban failed again...unless they really really wanted Hardaway Jr.

    In which case Cuban performed the ever elusive double-fail.

    Change of scenery might give Zinger a new outlook. Worked on PG.
