    I think when NeO goes to call another GM the other team's GM is like -- "oh god it's NeO to give a low ball offer on our best player like Myers and a future 2nd for ( insert player here )

    and then answers it and goes -- " Hey Neil -- were not interesting in Myers but anything else " ....... Long pause and .... then Neil says -- "Sorry i dialed wrong number have a nice day "

    From what I've been told from contacts with other teams, you are not too far off. Neil tends to way over value his players, tries to get other players for ridiculously cheap, and then says "it takes 2 teams to make a deal" when nothing works out.

    that's loopy....in what world is Derozan on the same level as Dame?

    Toronto traded their CJ and their Zach for Kawhi; meanwhile, according to several reports, Portland is holding their CJ and their Zach untouchable in trade talks at a time AD is available

    right, and after 6 fucking years of his "incremental advantage" process, Portland got swept in the 1st round

    Yes, he was demoted a couple of weeks ago. Vonleh helped make him expendable.

    I don't think he was saying Dame and DeRozan were on the same level....just that DeRozan was 'their' Dame.

    Huge difference giving up Harkless and a 1st for someone versus getting someone to sign for the minimum after being bought out.

    I find the idea that we could get Davis for CJ and Zach very far fetched.

    CJ, Nurkic, Zach and three unprotected picks would maybe get us him but even that won’t be enough to cut the deal NOW.

    Harkless and a first for Mirotic is a no brainer, it really is.

    Vonleh would be so good here now. Actually he might get traded to a playoffs team soon.

    Could some of you guys who are more clever than me (and not so lazy) start writing up what you think Olshey will say (after another disappointing trade deadline)? Sly could give some kind of prize to ever comes closest to actually Olshey.

    that still doesn't make sense though. That's like saying CJ is Portland's Stephen Curry
