    It was me. Boston traded for Kyrie. Dame's ours.

    After the season Kyrie would be Boston's free agent so he'd be considered "theirs" at that time but not before.

    It must have plenty of fiber because I almost crapped my pants at the idea of it.

    And trading for AD would negate his DPE?

    This is an awesome revelation. Great find!

    I'd do CJ + Aminu + Collins + 19 first + 21 first + 23 pick swap no protections etc for AD + Moore + Randle.

    Give em everything.

    After the Scottie Pippen trade (remember that?), I was convinced anything could happen, but time and Olshey have ruined that. I can't even pretend to pretend that Olshey could stop swimming laps long enough to make this happen. I can however pretend to hear about how close he was to making it happen after AD is traded to the Lakers...

    Ok nice, that then makes since why we would be players in the AD sweep stakes (0.00000000000001%, chance lol)

    I don't know if LA can really. They don't have a big on his rookie contract with the upside of Zach and LA has no one who is an established scorer like CJ. The truth is CJ and Zach plus 2019, 21, and 23 first rounders should get it done. I just don't know if Neil would pay that ransom with the possibility that Davis walks after a season and a half.

    I think Neil would rather trade away his own penis than cj.

    Well Boston trading for him wouldn't negate his current DPE designation, but he would then be ineligible for the Super Max on his next free agency. He can only get that if he stays with New Orleans which prompted the "legacy over money" comments he made a few days ago. The only way Boston can legally trade for him this season is if they traded Kyrie either in a trade for him or in another trade. Once the new league year starts in July whatever contract Kyrie signs (if he re-signs) would then be considered made by Boston and not traded for, so they could then deal for AD. One of their trade chips (Rozier) would also be a free agent then so it would be difficult to include him in the trade.

    I spoke to someone earlier and suggested that the Blazers ask for a conditional Lottery protected 1st back. The contingency being that is CJ made the all-star game although that would be easier in the East.

    I honestly think if CJ had his own team, he will really cut loose. It just doesn't fit here with Dame.

    Lebron is three days away from age 34.

    Dame's 28.

    6 years is a sizable gap.

    The Pelicans are in the West though, unless I'm misunderstanding.
