Did he delete it? I don't see it on his page. What's the @ alias for Gambo on twitter?

I wish I knew how to take a picture of my notifications on my twitter app. That is where I see that he retweeted it.

Press center/home button and the power on/off button simultaneously for a few seconds. That's for screenshots in general on iPhone and most android phones fyi.

I believe you. Just wasn't sure if I was looking at the wrong page. If you refresh is it still there?

So now is the moment where we all sit back and realize that Lebron is a legitimate possibility, it's no longer rosterbating. This is legit spank bank material.

Ok, lol, now I see what happened. What a tricky twitter account that bostoncenter twitter account is. They saw my tweet and than they reworded my retweet. And than sent the one I provided out. So yeah, I am their source. Lol

With Pau potentially close with OKC and Hayward with Cle, I would think we would need an indication one way or another soon so that we don't miss out.

Man that Goran for Rondo rumor better be fake. I'd HATE to lose Goran. He's a true Sun. I just can't think why they would entertain such a deal. I know financially it may make sense, but he just can't be moved :(

So Duece, are you now the source for basketball trade information on the internet? :lol: You should tweet that "Suns sources are saying that LeBron is leaning heavily toward the Suns since the Heat cannot get their act together."

I bet you get a ton of retweets, and are even quoted by Chris Boussard. :lol:

Ok so I sent a tweet to gambo he then immediately tweeted it to these guys, who In turn tweeted this.


Why are you sending garbage like this to Gambo? If you are going to send some trade rumor, at least make it one that benefits the Suns.

Edit: Sorry...I see that you said they re-worded it. I assume you were asking him a question. I was wondering about that. I asked Zach Lowe a question on twitter today and someone else favorited it (I don't really have followers..it certainly wasn't one of my few followers). Then I asked Larry Coon a question the other day and some other dude answered me. I am not sure how they see these. When I go to other people's pages, I don't see questions from other users to them unless they respond to them.

Celtics get Dragic but they aren't certain who the Celtics get. Interesting...

To me, this would make no sense. Why take back a PG who can't shoot for another guard who can? It would hurt us IMO. I really hope this isn't true.



It is not true - it makes no sense. Dragic is better than Rondo and less expensive.

A bunch of smokescreens media hype "not on same page"
Probably all pre written.

Of course it's fake. It was made up on this very board.

That's more like it. Then you can send one to Gambo that these tricky guys can intercept that says "Mistake...Dragic NOT going to Boston. Boston receiving ISH SMITH!"

Ok soooo. Is anything going to happen? This has got to be the most hyped yet boring free agency ever!
Something crazy better happen soon.

After reading that this is the first time I've actually thought that LeBron may be more likely to leave the Heat. Those guys want a combined $30 million. If LeBron gets a max that puts them over $50 and they only have about $60 unless they dump Cole. I guess they can add someone, but it better be someone good....and then have someone else good available at the MLE.

If Riley saying they have $12 is true, then that definitely means they have to dump Cole or those guys can't get as much as they want.

Last year was worse, at least with free agency. Nothing happened until the 6th because Howard couldn't make up his mind, so he held up everyone. Same will happen this year with most players that don't go back to their same teams, because nobody will sign if there is a chance Dallas, us, or whoever is waiting on LeBron will sign them for more.

Of course we were all excited because the Bledsoe trade was July 2nd, so we didn't have to wait long for anything to happen.
