    I thought Dwight and HCP had a relationship also?

    Boston’s opening only came a day or two before Portland, so I’d be surprised if we didn’t see a decision by the end of the week.

    weren't these the same dudes making a big fuss about Spoelstra?

    Yup. The only radio guy that I have ever known to have any kind of inside info (not employed by the team) was Kenny Vance when he was really close with Trader Bob.

    That's it. Most of them don't know jack shit.

    I’m not sure how big the backlash will be?

    That’s the Suns former GM saying that. Dunno what he has to do with Spoelstra.

    except this isn’t a radio guy speculating, it’s a former GM

    This is a great question. I can’t remember it happening before, but it doesn’t mean it can’t happen

    I think it will be big. I think most fans aren't following things that closely, and his past isn't that well known, but as soon as he's hired the local media will shit all over it. Portland is the woke capital. There's no way there isn't backlash.

    But the source is Ryan McDonough who is a former Suns GM. Terrible GM, but probably well connected.

    Congrats to Ime. Out of the Pop tree, did Hammon even get an interview with Boston?

    This is either the greatest smokescreen of all time or the worst kept secret of all time.
