Damn you John Steinmiller !

So is there any source that says this is being held up until the dunk contest votes are released, or are we just thinking this may be the case?

I actually think this is going to happen for some reason, but not until tomorrow night or Friday morning.

This has nothing to do with the thread, but does anyone remember what the longest thread we've ever had on this board and what the topic was? Just curious.

Hasn't it already been mentioned that some of this depends on the Dunk Contest vote? Once the winner is announced, I'll give it a window of about 2-3 days.

I bet it was the massive Packer thread we had before the NFL forums were created. One thread for all things Packers.

Ersan didnt play in Barcelona's game today and was not listed in the box score at all for DNP, while a player that hasn't played yet this season for Barcelona was listed in the box score and had never been listed before until today's game. Perhaps he was held out because Barcelona already wrapped up the #1 seed? Though he's the only player that didn't play for them

I doubt it means anything, that Ersan's being brought over or anything like that, but I guess you never can know for sure

The Packers thread was epic in size and value.


EDIT: Apparently not an original thought...

Whether this deal goes through or not, are we keeping 4 pgs past the trade deadline?

He's got some sort of leg injury...not sure how serious. He was wearing a knee wrap in the last league game IIRC.

I saw this info on Fam's site. If it's been posted already I apologize. The source is Ronald Tillery of CMI Memphis:

1.) The teams are still talking but Milwaukee is in a holding pattern because of a reluctance to part with Alexander, which ultimately may not prove to be a hindrance because this deal appears to be more about Sessions for the Griz.

2.) The Bucks, while interested in Conley, are showing no sense of urgency to pull the trigger now with the NBA’s trade deadline still several weeks off (Feb. 19). Perhaps the Bucks want to first gauge interest in Richard Jefferson.

I can live with Conley for Sessions.

Hopefully the Bucks are gauging the interest in both of the wings.
