Well if it's before Friday Jackson can't be traded and couple means two or three, so no later than Thursday :roll:

Edit: I didn't know he gave Tony Rizzo as the source - he has a verified twitter account and seems to be based in Cleveland.

Guys, even if Cleveland thinks they' can't get Jackson it makes no sense for them to do a deal before he's eligible for trade. They're not gonna torpedo their chance at the best deal possible jumping the gun. According to Woj Altman is a patient dude that won't panic on this.

Looks like Rizzo is the Cleveland Gambo. Hosts a sports talk radio show.

I think most everyone was happy to get Jackson in the draft. And the only real insider news I know of regarding Kyrie is that they want Jackson, if not, no deal. So you gotta decide if you're happy we haven't pulled the trigger on that one yet. I am. I see that one vote up there.


I'm just saying, if we get Kyrie without giving up Jackson, I still read too much complaining about having him on the squad.........just get him and run. How could you not be happy watching that guy go ape **** on people, ISO Ball or not. It will be good for our team more than it would be worse.......in all facets.

Here's a crazy one...not sure if it's been proposed before, but here goes.

PHX trades: Bledsoe, Dudley, Chandler, Warren, Chriss 2018 #1, 2020 #1, MIA 2018 #1, MIA 2021 #1
PHX receives: Irving, Davis, Asik

Irving/Booker/Jackson/Davis/Len

PHX goes for broke to put together an good collection of young talent that can grow together and be good for years to come. They all have contracts that expire at different times too, which should help a little bit in keeping everyone together. That team will compete push for a low playoff berth this year with a great future.

NOP trades: Davis, Asik
NOP receives: Love, Warren, Chriss, PHX 2018 #1, PHX 2020 #1


Rondo/Holiday/Warren/Love/Cousins

NOP pulls in another All-Star to replace Davis and one that fits well next to Cousins. With Love on the Outside and Cousins on the inside it will be tough to deal with them in the front court. NOP also picks up other prospects to develop. They capitalize on Davis to fill positions of need and assure long-term growth of the ball club.

CLE trades: Irving, Love
CLE receives: Bledsoe, Dudley, Chandler, Bender, 2018 MIA #1, 2021 MIA #1


Bledsoe/Smith/Dudley/LBJ/Chandler

CLE gets a prospect, and assets beyond this year while upgrading perimeter defense for another run against Golden State. All of this in players that are better-natured about playing their role and not getting caught up in team politics.

agreed, he's a real gem


I once nailed a stripper one that had the name Diamond Stone. She was the exact opposite of a very large black man.

I also went to HS with a girl name Crystal Diamond. Like for real, that was her real birth name.


Did you pay for it?...if so, tsk tsk Kerrsed.

And here's a more simple one:

Bledsoe, PHX #1 top 5 prot, Chriss
for
Irving, Cedi, CLE #1

Including Cedi delays it into August to be official.

Nope, never had, never will. That was one of the great things about living in Portland, most strip clubs per capita in the U.S.

I think the other poll where there was a clear other choice and it was like 48-1 was more convincing on where we stand. With no other choice...it may not be as convincing.

What's sad is my six year old daughter loves Booker and celebrated with me when we drafted Jackson. For the first week we drafted Jackson, if I was on the computer, my wife would walk by and ask if I was watching Josh Jackson highlights.....the answer was an astounding yes 9 times out of 10.

How am I going to tell them we traded JJ already. :dontknow:

Ain't that the truth

I doubt they would give up a first round pick and Chriss for Stephen Curry.

That would be far too much. We could be giving up one of the great centers ever as well as the next Amare.

So you're the one guy that goes to the strip club with no money that girls flock to? Good work.
