Doesn't mean a damn thing because after they talk and talk over the next couple weeks, Dwight may still say he wants out and they probably need to make a trade to convince him. A separate thread is unnecessary. Those tweets were already discussed in the speculation thread...

What else do you want to talk about?

What I'm getting at is please keep it in the speculation thread unless something noteworthy/new actually happens. They've been saying the same crap in interviews all week (all season really). No need to fragment the trade conversations when it's the exact same topic that's being discussed in the spec thread.

Edit: yay, threads merged.

Spoke to Warriors coach Marc Jackson...told me nothing to trade rumors of Monta Ellis....wants him to stay with Golden State...

btw... didn't Marc keep Monta on the bench a couple times late in games this season, which made Monta unhappy? ... Doesn't sound like a coach who likes Ellis to me.

Reminds me of Stan and Ryan's relationship. Marc Jackson really likes Ellis and expects a ton out of him. Maybe their relationship is souring.

I really don't think we're getting Ellis, but I almost want to milk the rumor and wish we had a game thread up for the Sixers Warriors game tonight...

Holy crap, where are those two idiot Ellis haters when you need to rub it in their faces...

Post #1233 » by **Def Swami** » Sat Mar 3, 2012 1:24 am

Monta's so fire right now, 76ers just put Iggy on him.

We are saying that Sessions IS somebody who we could actually get & not just hope & pray for.

Im not talking about that..Im talking about wanting him OVER Ellis. Now that you mentioned that though, Ramon is a career 11 and 5apg player. Is it really that significant a move? I dont think you keep Howard by getting Kyrie Irvings back up.

rcklsscognition · Post #1235 » by **rcklsscognition** » Sat Mar 3, 2012 1:25 am

Redick for Ellis is a lateral move.

This sucks, GS already thinks highly of Ellis.

ADRajX · Post #1238 » by **ADRajX** » Sat Mar 3, 2012 1:26 am

Man when Monta goes off... he reminds me of a mini T-Mac from 2001-2004... unstoppable... man, how old is he? 26? ... Well I don't like him, because he isn't a star in the league.

no need for the green, his court vision is not at PG level.

and the green font thing: grow balls and risk being misunderstood by some people or do not indulge in sarcasm at all.

Never said I wanted him over Monta. That's just ridiculous Monta is my number 1 choice for Orlando to get. Just saying Monta doesn't seem too realistic right now.
