That's fair. I just found it weird how Nurse was practically second-guessing their decision to rule him out for the rest of the trip.

Only package that really interests me for OG is Dyson Daniels plus whatever.

It sounded like he got caught off guard and got defensive. Typically that'd be his call, but given the time of year...he might have been over ruled.

We're taking calls on everybody not named Scottie Barnes and maybe Siakam.

I saw a post on Reddit from a guy claiming to be a janitor who works at MLSE saying the word around the building is that Fred and Trent are the most likely to go, with it taking a whole lot for the front office to trade OG. I choose to believe this narrative. :)

Edit: Here's the post.

As a "Janitor" at 50 Bay St : Here's what Im hearing this week

Been seeing alot of posts of rumors on this sub so figured I'd give some info of what ive heard as an "Executive of Custodians" at MLSE.

- FVV and GTJ +plus some bench add on players are most likely to go at the deadline.
- Front office wants to Build around OG, Barnes and Siakam these next couple of years. With OG having a larger role.
- Would take a mammoth offer to move OG. Pacers are a darkhorse to get him, as they believe they can sign him long term with his Indiana roots.
- FO is done with Flynn, apparently has a horrible attitude and hasn't developed
- Mavs are in love with FVV and Siakam
- most likely FVV will be traded to a west team , if he stays in the East, it will be a trade with the Magic centered around Suggs
- Rumors about the Knicks wanting OG are true. Move won't happen unless the raps get a package back centered around either Barret or Quickley

The Pelicans are very interesting trade partners. Anunoby/Flynn for Daniels/Murphy/Graham would work money wise. If they could squeeze a 1st round pick out of them as well for taking on the Graham contract and because they are in free fall mode that would be a trade that I would be happy with for sure.

Really good young player and 3 unprotected picks are what you can get for Siakim but not for OG


I'm not suggesting you're wrong but OG is highly coveted and we could greatly benefit from a bidding war inflating his price.


In the abstract that’s ideal but I think the season will be pretty quiet. It’s going to be a buyers market and I teams are happy to walk away if they think the price is too high. The majority of teams that are contending for a championship don’t have the picks to trade. If you’re a play in team or on the cusp getting OG alone doesn’t make you a contender.

Lol que an image of a janitor sweeping up the room where MASAI, Bobby, and the front office are meeting. He pretends like he's not listening, but he actually is!
