    Heard this too. It was on the ringer podcast.

    https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast...atch-ep-337/id1109271715?i=1000423793086&mt=2

    Around the 11 minute mark. O’Connor mentioned he’s heard the pelicans, the lakers, and Portland. Didn’t expand because they got sidetracked on some other bullshit.

    LA doesn’t make any sense but Magic is a moron so maybe. Spears said no on the Lakers and he’s a better source than O’Connor.

    Pelicans were interested in Butler and they could probably use another scorer.

    No national media guy mentions Portland unless there’s truth or Olshey is planting an angle, and that usually only happens with Woj.

    This season will go from amazing to complete shit if we sign him. I won't watch a game with him on the roster.

    Or speculation, just like they "heard" that Dame could get traded to the Lakers... The team is a success right now, and Olshey is in his most favorable light with fans in years. He doesn't need to plant an angle.

    And if you think there was real interest, that this O'Connor dude would have the scoop and no one else would?

    Being the only member of the media in this forum with me, doesn't "TrueBlazerFan" have the real inside scoop?

    O’Connor was one of the first people to report Portland’s interest in Simons, and the only one that then reported they also gave him a promise. He’s not a nobody.

    Yeah, he's more of a draft guy though. Name something non-draft related.

    What difference does it make? The info comes from either an agent or someone in a front office.

    Let's just say I'm almost certain Olshey wouldn't pursue him.

    There are some big names on that list. I think the key to long term success is recognition of the facts. Can Melo acknowledge he isn’t the player he was 4 years ago, and willingly take on a reduced role?
