I hope he knows that he won't get anything for a $700,000 contract.


:roll:

They would use him as part of package to make salaries match if needed.

If you're close but not in the 125% then he could be very handy.

Why would that be so incredulous to you?

Land lines, cell phones, internet, VPNs, jet planes, etc ...
Not with the team is a good thing as He shouldnt be with the team right now. But " scouting college games " come on :crazy: ARE YOU SERIOUS? whens the last time we drafted a impack player that wasnt the #1 pick of the draft? and what kinda pick does he think we will get? hes " scouting college games " looking for the 20th pick in draft? or does he want us 2 get swept in the 1st round again like last year so we can draft the college player of the year and sit him on the bench,not play him, but not trade him eather becuase " i like our current roster " and " our team isnt broken " while i agree with both of those quotes isnt a GM's job to always improve? with a new arena will come higher ticket prices and after all the bull we've put up with this season with FSN and Brighthouse i think we ( the true fans of this team ) deserve someone who wants to constantly improve. i stand by my statement " eather denton is eating the bread out of otis's hand like a duck on a lake... Or i've lost faith in otis if this is true. " sortly we will see.

First, let me preface by saying that I would be in favor of this deal.

The Letter J wrote:-= original quote snipped =-


:lol:

My problem with this is that we are taking Dunk's word from his source who is taking his word from another source. Ppl shouldn't call someone a source unless they have them as an either IRL relationship or some kind of exclusivity. If you're reading something from another forum, it ain't your source.

That is all. :D


Took the words out of my mouth.

Idunkonyou2 wrote:-= original quote snipped =-



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.


More importantly, why would he tell some dude on an ezekielbear message board?

My sources tell me he's straight outta Compton.


Congrats on getting the biggest laugh out of me via the web in a while.

You can't totally fault the guy. Otis hasn't exactly hit one out of the park yet...or even doubled.
