    I'm totally confused... does he not have credentials? Wasn't he with the Oregonian before?

    Not sure what the question is. I just started these podcasts in the last two weeks and this dude you posted seems to be the most even keeled. I have no idea what his credentials are

    it might be fake, but I have to say I'd bet the Nets value Claxton a lot more than they value Herro. Portland sure a shit does. I don't think the Blazers have a prayer of getting Claxton unless it's just a 2 team trade of Dame to Brooklyn; and my impression is that Brooklyn doesn't have a lot of interest in trading for Dame. Maybe they have been expert at hiding that interest though

    Like I heard on the radio this morning....when the Heat was losing the finals, was it guard play they were missing?

    Correct... but keeping him is a sub-optimal result for multiple reasons.

    I would like him also but would be surprised if we get him under any scenario.

    If Nurk would attack the basket stronger than my 93 your old grandmother, he would likely endear himself to fans a bit more.

    True, but he's a massive step down from Dame.

    Doesn't or didn't Dame have a relationship with Philly front office?

    I find it really interesting that the Nets just signed a two way player today but still have not signed Clowney or Whitehead.

    it could just be coincidence or late reporting to the league office

    but if it's not, what does that say about Riley signing Jaquez?

    It might say that Riley won't give us Jaquez in the deal and instead will give the Nets enough to where they'll send us these guys. I don't really know what grade Schmitz has on any of these guys. A bunch of us like Jaquez but maybe our front office doesn't.

    the Locked on Blazers guy gets confused when fans tell him Simons is bad at defense. "I'm looking at the boxscore, and I don't see bad defense listed anywhere ??"
