    That trade makes zero sense.

    The Blazers front office wouldn’t even have the balls to take such a chance on a trade. So I don’t believe it. If the Blazers decide to make a major change and one of the core guys get moved or a core player gets added, my mind totally blown.

    So do you think it would be a smart move? After everyone has laughed about Gobert getting 40 million per year, do you want the Blazers to pay that?

    Minnesota would have the same problem with Nurkic and Towns.

    Yep if they are trading 35 million in assets I would expect more than a one-dimensional center back in return.
    However, Joe has only been on the job for 12 months and he has already traded a "core" player in CJ. so I am not sure why your mind would be blown if he traded Nurk or Grant.

    After all the shit the Timberwolves have been given for giving up 4 first rounders for Gobert, they only do this trade after a change of GMs. And my impression is that none of Gobert's teammates like him, so Dame would be FURIOUS at that swap.

    It's 100% fake news, and not even trying to be plausible. But that's kind of obvious given that that account is called "mocktrades".

    I can't open instagram through this site, nor can I copy the link to find it. Can someone just post what the rumor is?

    lol...it says right at the top "Mock Trades"....is anybody really taking this serious? I don't think this is anywhere close to the level of a rumor. Looks like some clown passing gas on the internet

    A mock trade, citing "Terry Scotts" as the source. Gobert for Nurk and Grant.

    "Rumor," lol...
