    I’m pretty surprised there haven’t been any real deals yesterday and today

    I'd rather no moves than bad moves.

    Wiseman is a waste of space. He's all potential, no actual. Payton currently leads the team in +/-, whereas I think Wiseman has always been GS's biggest minus.

    So... I guess I should be cool with it too, given my desire to tank.

    I'm willing to bet that none of them will amount to anything.

    I'd be shocked if we traded GP2. He's one of the best teammates in the NBA, his teammates love him and everyone in the organization loves him too. He's a great guy. Ask @HCP and he'll confirm.
    I know most of you only care about X & O's and W's, but the chemistry & energy he brings to the team has a big impact on everyone.

    Yes....which is likely why they don't have him as one who is available.

    There are some people in the Blazer organization that are a bit frustrated with Payton. Dame has even made comments about 'playing when you are a big banged up' and it seemed directed at Gary. The organization was a bit perplexed when it took him much longer than expected to come back because he wanted to be completely 100%, when players like Hart and Winslow, were playing all beat up.

    Yeah, unless it's the difference between getting a star and not getting one GP2 will be here.

    Is this conjecture or what you've actually heard?

    I'd gladly trade:

    GPII + Winslow <-> Wiseman + PBJ

    I'm not sure using Winslow as an example of 'playing beat up' is a good one here.

    Before he was out with this severe high ankle sprain, he was playing with a number of issues. Quite a good example. There is playing through injuries you can, and being sidelined by injuries there is no way a player could get through.

    Yeah me too but I thought GS wanted to dump his contract to save 131 million, So I doubt they want Gp2 back

    Mike Scotto just reported the knicks are interested in Hart which I think we’ve heard before correct?
    Guessing Obi and maybe some draft capital? Whatever the salary filler is too
