    Or they really wanted to get rid of Hezonja, badly, or open that space up. Or all three.

    Could also just be a reference to Kanter, since there was some back-and-forth grievances aired last year after he ended up in Boston...

    That was some minor potatoes though. I don't remember the drama being that substantial.

    Casey is not usually this up in arms about stuff. Don't think Kanter alone would warrant this kinda reaction. His recent tweets:






    Putting my $ on Aldridge. S&T w/ Whiteside.

    Aldridge is a better guess than Kanter, I doubt anyone even remembers that back and forth and if they do it isn’t significant enough. Holdahl is probably just fucking around tho.

    The only way is a sign and trade for Whiteside

    What? They USED the exception to get Kanter.

    The deal would've been Kanter + 30 for 2-seconds. Portland got Mephis to give up the 2nds and to take Mario to get the #30,

    Harkless would be nice. I'm just hoping it's Aldridge.

    More likely just ET. ugh

    Better not be...

    I think Lillard's tweet is in response to Kanter.

    I'm way too fucking amped for FA - literally stalking old Serge Ibaka tweets on Twitter. Can 3PM just get here already? I can't do any work.

    I’m thinking Aldridge and Rondo to finish things up

    then Hood would be the icing on the cake for depth

    I know he was a good locker room guy, but hard to imagine Casey going that bananas for ET coming back...

    Yeh, I just read that. That's kind of a bummer. I had hoped for Bjelica with the exception.
