Its obvious this was a fake. If you go on the Kings board, they were all quoting that other forum also.

Everyone was being fed false info from 1 source, and then quoting one another.

Just one ugly pyramid scheme essentially.

This is like the OK Coral.

It's a shoot out between Denton and dunk's source.


Actually they would both match up. It is a money issue and it sounds like our owners or Otis will fail us again.

You're source said Otis wants it and Denton says that Otis doesn't want it.

There's no backpedaling!!!

It's not over yet, perhaps Otis is blowing up yet another smokescreen.

This wasn't a fake, it was being discussed. Just because it was DENIED doesn't mean it wasn't really being talked about. Eze (Kings mod) is VERY reliable, and never said the deal was ACTUALLY going to happen. It was just stated that it was being talked about and Orlando had to say OK before it was approved by both teams.

According to my source Denton is full of poo:

"Do disrespect to Denton, but, I've talked to Otis quite a few times...lol...

Otis has no reason to acknowledge he's in trade discussions. This deal is a long way from being anything near complete...Otis wouldn't open his mouth about it."


It makes sense. Why would he talk about a trade? GMs don't do that until they are in the final stages or when they are officially dead.

Otis lies all the time, and it's not like Denton has the superhuman ability to make him tell the truth.

But based on that, why would this source be any different than Denton? Why would he get the inside scoop and Denton get the brush off?
