    That's over with. Bones came to me with a three way Knicks, Por, Pels deal. I declined and made a counter offer. Never heard back. I also realized New York knew nothing about it.

    Intriqued by getting Davis for sending you CJ and the 25th while sending me scraps. I bet he was.

    George hill is not a scrap. Expiring $19 mill

    Islaya is not a scrap. Good, low cost PF. Picks picks and picks.

    Why would the Pelicans want two older players for AD?

    Expiring. Frees cap space next year to add a max contract next to Zion. Chris cant ( or shouldnt ) go ALL young. You need a vet on that roster.

    Because that isn't all he is getting out of this. Plus AD might sabotage things.

    NO would be getting hill( an expiring), a decent PF on a good contract, several picks, Harkless, also on a decent contract...

    AND I TOLD HIM TO LET ME KNOW WHAT ELSE HE WOULD WANT...............



    Nobody seems to be seeing that? lol

    So you offer Giannis and then change your mind but now you are mad that he won't take the rest of the crap you have to offer?

    Wow. Lots of assumptions there. ;) First, Im not mad.

    Second it was giannis for AD straight up. But now trying to do a three way.

    He hasn't responded either way letting me know He doesn't want anything else, or what he would want. This also opens up more from Portland if he would prefer, and I compensate for that by sending to Portland.

    Saw your quip about Giannis in the OP. But it's baffling to me that someone would trade a loyal 24 yr old MVP on a < Max contract.

    Since the GM of the Pelicans is no longer accepting or returning my calls. I'm opening up the field. Who has an offer?
