    The only news is that it got out (if it is even true). We don't let things out since Pritchard left.

    You do realize its not really going to happen, right? This isnt a dmc "hes toxic lets get him out" ... Nothing wrong with exploratory talks.

    Ultimately there is less than a 1% chance we move Lillard anytime soon (imo) but I like that we are evaluating every possible avenue to get better. I have to say, it would be very weird to see him go. He basically is POR. Even moreso then Roy imo. More than Drexler. Well more than anyone I guess. Not happening but applaud them for doing their due diligence.

    Casey works for the team but that doesn't mean he know if it happened or not. There is no reason to NOT listen. There is also very very little reason to do anything more. I would be pissed if this is wrong and they didn't listen. I would be more pissed if they did anything rash though.

    Years ago I tried to trade Darius Miles on the NY Craigslist. The posting made True Hoop. Best offer I got was a box of used wigs.

    100% true story.

    I would have accepted it but Craigslist took down my post, I guess you can't sell people on Craigslist.
