    This...

    So yes, Neil knew differently on draft night and spent 15 mins selling us bill of goods. Surprised someone didn't put a muffle on that guy.

    He didn't say LA was coming back. Iirc he said we will be in the hunt.

    That's what non-disclosures are all about. He should get canned for that...

    Please explain lillards tweets today about wanting LA back. I'm sure you'll have your conspiracies but I just can't see the team making him do that just to lead fans on, or give them false hope.

    Yeah why the hell would he say that in front of a camera for a news report? "People don't know this isn't publicized yet..." but he tells the world anyways.

    Because it makes Damian look better and he probably does want LMA back. At least he can say he tried to keep him around.

    No, he never said LA was coming back. He was reporting to us that LA never leaked any information.

    LA would be the liar after all that has been said if this is true.

    That's a stretch. Like he needs the positive publicity.

    I thought Neil was a player person. Wouldn't he let Dame know this before that tweet. This is a good point. This is just all around bad. Bad look on us. The fact that this shit was leaked this way. Maybe this is where that rumor that he let us know came about
