Announces that Philly will be looking a McCollum to pair with Holiday around pick 5.
Announces that Thad will be traded in January. Announces on the 29th that he switched his mind.

The list goes on and on. I'm still laughing at the Thad for Cousins legit rumor from him.

Part of trying to be a reporter is learning that not everything you are told is credible. He hasn't caught on to this, and instead everyone is learning that many (most?) things he says are not credible at all.

I actually think that is a good move for a couple of reason. 1) we have to think long-term, acquiring another pick for the 2015 draft is a thinking long-term. 2) the 2015 draft is not as "pimped" as this one, teams would be willing to give up a pick. 3) teams would be willing to give more for future assets.

plus i don't think many teams are looking to move 2014 1st round picks for the likes of Hawes and Turner

Yeah. Everything that guy shared has been complete BS. Based on the smile in his twitter avatar, he knows it.

Any updates on Furkan Aldemir or Arsalan Kazemi?

According to some people on here I thought no team wanted any of the Sixers vets...

Should be pretty cool, hopefully it doesn't turn out to be an embarrasment.

Big tank game vs. the Jazz tonight. Best case scenario - MCW beats Burke and we lose the game anyway.

MCW will beat Burke tonight and we will still lose by 20

Spencer Hawes uses Obama toilet paper He is now my favorite player...lol

Does that raise his trade value?

(I'm not picking sides in the political debate btw)

Spencer has always been the man.

I could care less about Spence's political views, although his means of expressing them might not be the most mature. What really bothers me about this story is that I think the Obama toilet paper will upset some people and ET completely put a teammate on blast by tweeting it. I don't think it has any real impact on Hawes or his trade value, but perhaps gives one more reason for teams to pause when thinking about getting Turner.

Agnostifarian · Post #217 » by **Agnostifarian** » Fri Feb 14, 2014 7:42 pm

That story comes from ET. Nice team mate. ET says he "won't use the Obama TP though"... What does ET use? Does he go un-wiped or does he just grab one of Spence's face clothes?

This takes "ET has got to Go" to a new level.

This raises a very important question. Can't have ET spreading diseases around the team for unsanitary reasons (even though that would probably help with the tank...)

Skates · Post #219 » by **Skates** » Fri Feb 14, 2014 8:14 pm

The story came from pics fo the TP that Turner took and posted to Instagram. Turner is so freaking weird, seriously, who does that? I don't know that it affects his trade value, but it probably means less dinner invitations for ET. :roll:

I doubt Hawes cares. He posts stuff like that on his own twitter/gram all the time.
