It's not Collin Sexton, it's the offers the team expects to come in for Dame shit that I think has a lot of people rattled.
Why does he need to air that to the media, though? It feels bad enough, IMO, having rumors of him being unhappy. It'd suck if he came out and said I'm done just being happy, I want to win now. Maybe I'm confused by what you want him to do. Say the same stuff he has been, I'm happy here, to dispel rumors? Or push to want out? Or demand Neil make trades and look unhappy?
The only way this rumor makes any sense: "Hey, Neil, good to see you!" "You got a deal for me?" "I sure do, for your shooter who can't play D, I'll give you 2 shooters who can play D" "Throw in a future 2nd round shooter who can't play D?" "No prob." "Done Deal! 30th in D, here we come.... Oh wait."
But he IS airing it to the media through his lackey friend. So I personally would much rather he just come out and tell us what’s on his mind.
you mean his lacky friend who he basically threw under the bus earlier in the year by saying he was full of shit?
Yeah, I would think him saying, if I have something to say I'll direct it to Neil, or however he phrased it, would be interpreted as, don't listen to all the noise, I'm not leaking through people, I'll go direct to the source.
I assume this means that we'd be trying to get him without giving up CJ - which probably means trading Ant. Collin Sexton Reportedly 'Very Available' This Summer JUL 11, 2021 9:19 PM Collin Sexton is reportedly "very available" to be traded this summer, sources told Jason Lloyd of The Athletic. Lloyd adds that he no longer believes that the Cavs would sign Sexton to a max contract after speaking to various sources around the league. Sexton is set to enter the final year of his rookie deal next season. Teams around the league are aware of his contract situation, thereby hurting his trade value. JASON LLOYD/THE ATHLETIC
No, but if i didn't have to trade a major asset, CJ (cause Dame ain't a part of any of this shit), i would love to acquire him. He can be a major asshole on the court. Has a real edginess about him. And he is talented. He would add some serious attitude we've been missing since Zach's injury. And be the quality backup PG we've been missing. I'd trade Ant for him. or a future 1st. I like Simons, but Sexton is a better right now.
Sexton as a 6th man, his ideal role, he’d be a great addition — and a ginormous upgrade over Simons. He’s a potential Lou Will clone — and a career 39% from three.
If the rumor is even worth anything the only reason we're monitoring Sexton is because of Dame trade possibilities. Hopefully that's not true but if it's not then there's no use in discussing Sexton because the source of the Sexton rumor is insinuating that Sexton is a Dame replacement.
The source is "Ross." Read Ross' Twitter. He promotes himself by quoting himself. He was wrong when he tweeted June 29 that Orlando would hire Kenny Atkinson. Ross makes up stuff.
I don't understand why people don't get Dame is loyal to the soil. Good to have reminders from the man periodically.
Yea man, that’s Neil’s music lmao. You can hide your distain for Neil better than that, taking shots at him when it’s not even irrelevant to the topic is a norm now.
