I don’t have twitter, does that account have any other Bucks slop? Or are Collin Sexton and Power Forward Robin Lopez the headliners? Because there’s some end of bench guys floating around that are worth a flyer or two-way deal…

The only other thing was he had we were interested in Beasley or Terance Davis, then we ended up with Beasley.

ESPN just let go of a ton of people, just saying
Dealing with people who exhibit the "smartest person in the room" syndrome can be a challenge. One approach is to listen their opinion while also encouraging open-mindedness. It's important to create an environment where all voices are valued.

Rumor has it that ESPN had to clear major payroll salary to compensate for the 85m they now owe Pat Mac and the frat bros..

Again, many if not most of these things had been rumored or outright reported as possibilities or even likely before he “called it”. That goes for Grant Williams/Dallas, Brook/Jae returning to Milwaukee, Dillon Brooks to Houston, etc. Marc Stein for example was talking about much of this pretty early.

It really wouldn’t be that difficult for a hardcore NBA fan who is knowledgeable about various teams to follow Twitter, reddit, IG, etc and repackage various rumors/reports from credible media members and pass it off as “insider info”. For stuff that ends up happening, pump it up as a win. When it doesn’t, don’t speak of it again. Like the Beasley stuff even I posted about before it happened :lol:

The Sexton stuff is the one that seems specific to that account though. If that ends up happening, then sure, will believe in that account as a real insider.

Mavs might be able to throw a 3 Aussie wing lockdown rotation out there.

Every year I think it might be interesting/fun to watch the young guys in summer league and then I watch five minutes and remember these games are terrible.

Just to say, Danny Ainge is the worst. Biggest weasel player in the league when he played, biggest weasel GM in the league as a GM. Please let’s not give him a first round pick. If a first round pick is what he won’t budge on, move on. That guy is a weasel. If I were a GM, I would avoid dealing with him whenever possible.

Remember when ol' Danny boy said he wouldn't trade Bojan Bogdanovic for anything less than 1-2 first round picks and ended up just dumping him for a couple 2nd rounders and salary filler? All this "don't deal with Ainge" crap is overstated. If you don't wait him out and instead give up a first plus two quality rotation players for Collin **** Sexton, then you're an idiot GM that deserves to get fleeced more than Ainge is any sort of genius.

So Woj is reporting that Lillard’s agent is calling around warning other teams not to trade for him and that he’ll be unhappy everywhere but Miami?
