Rumors and gossip

Um Plums is from Indiana. And what rumor? Sullinger just posted stuff on his twitter saying he was expecting change. He is a FA so it's a reasonable assumption that he was on the move anyway. No connection to POR here.

 

I'd give up mo/Meyers for Noel and that's pretty much it. Maybe Henson. Not a Vucevic fan. At least not for the blazers.

 

It was not

 

Interesting

Sullinger IMO is a decent PF. Bangs down low and rebounds well. He also has some range. So I would trade them Meyers. But not Plumlee unless we were getting another center somewhere else. But it does not sound like Ainge would match so we could just sign him if we wanted him. But his weight seems to be an issue.

Out of that list, I think brook makes most sense, based on previous interest in low post scorers. And seems to make most sense on availability

 

They need picks. Badly. They don't have theirs until 2019. I think to START it would have to be 2 mid-to-late 1st rounders plus a guy who can grow in their system like Crabbe or Meyers. They like Crabbe a lot. Not sure he alone (even with picks) gets it done but that would be their thinking imo.

I don't see a deal there that works for both teams but I would like the guy on our squad a lot.

 

making up a rumor but if Mo gets $12m, salaries match for Gortat from Wash,Faried from denver, Favors from utah who was shopped last year(but i think for a stretch 4),

 

He started his career at Duke and in Brooklyn..when he had his exit interview he mentioned going back to the east with family and friends...I assumed it's the coast...didn't know he was from Indiana...I read the rumor here on the forum...someone posted a tweet. Rumors..that's what they are...am I in the wrong thread?

 

He could mentor Ed Davis on how to put on that 15 pounds

 

most i would give up for sullinger is meyers. Plumlee? Pass...

 

OK still a good question. (I was fishing.)

 

So, I'm assuming that the offers on the lesser players are on hold pending the big fish actually inking their contracts tomorrow? I suppose it would suck to tie up your cap space and then have a deal somewhere else in the NBA go south at the last minute and not be able to get in on it.

 

If Dame could grill his ass in workouts during the summer then I think he'd be fine.

 

Taj Gibson would be a great pickup.

 

Plumlee for Gibson and a Future 1st? We might be able to get the 1st because they need a backup C that's cheap so they can keep cap space for Wade.

 

Quick is saying by 5:15, but he said "might" so who knows.

 

Mirotic? Taj Gibson?

 

Sadly some teams will take on Calderon and Dunleavy. I wouldn't mind taking on Calderon if they give us a future 1st.
