    Dude it's Chris man. He's another guy you can count on to give you opposite results. This is good news!

    Can there be a three way deal in a S&T situation? Like Bledose can be sent to NY separate from us?

    Portland: Devin Booker and a future 1st (lottery protected)

    Phoenix: LaMarcus Aldridge

    New York: Eric Bledose

    I'd love a deal like that.

    I don't have a link to back it up but I am almost positive that the answer is no.

    What are they even giving up in your scenario? Cap space?

    No sign and trades unless it's a huge lopsided deal. we have leverage if he wants to go somewhere and lose$27 million then let him lose it

    I never saw a date past today, but can't be sure he doesn't have anything scheduled tomorrow.

    Cool!
    How about a complete list of teams he's meeting with - that could help determine if this'll be over today or tomorrow. He's already met with HOU/DAL/SAS/LAL/PHX - who's missing?

    I feel like Monroe or the team is waiting to see what Aldridge does before agreeing.

    All of the big moves will happen after LMA makes his decision. Once done all the others will fall into place.
