This kind of stuff blows up when it’s a top 10 player doing it. If it’s Durant, Bron, Steph, Giannis etc then yeah they make a big deal out of it. He’s the 4th option on a sub .500 team, nobody cares that he might have done this except us.


Yes, it's OG, the player being talked about as the biggest trade option for multiple teams with lots of US media attention over the past couple weeks. It's so strange that one person online "deciphered" that post game exchange a month after it happened but it hasn't been picked up anywhere else when OG's name has been all over the place as a trade target.

Was his name all over the place when this happened? Think what you want it doesn’t matter to me. The reality is that he wants out and to act like it’s the peak of ridiculousness to think that he said this to Hali is, in my opinion, a defense mechanism.

Lol ok guys keep thinking he didn’t express himself to Hali post game a month ago, when he’s been wanting out for like the last 6 months. We’re not trading him because he wants out, it’s because it’s for the good of the franchise ( green font).


So much speculation in this post... Speculation can take anyone down any road they want.

Murphy + Daniels and Graham(cap) for OG
Bamba+ Anthony+Orlando 2nd this year...approx pick 35....+Denver 1st in 2025 for FVV
Resign GTJ

Daniels
GTJ
PS
Barnes
Bamba....for floor spacing and a legit 7 footer

Anthony
Murphy...who over time can replace GTJ who we flip
Achiuwa
Boucher
Koloko

Plus we have our 1st who can bump someone out/down.
Trade Graham when you can or for cap when ready to make a bigger deal.

Add lots of 25 and under youth...some with very good upside and 2 picks. And finally have some depth

Bamba is just not a good player. I think there is more value out there for Fred.

I wonder if the Raps would send both OG and FVV to the Pelicans, to get a haul of Daniels, Trey and picks. But that would require taking back contracts of JV and Graham.

In a dry market.


Yes. Why does that matter? Do you think the media that covers the NBA is going to take the next week off because it's a dry market?

For about 8 months now there's been smoke about OG wanting something new, from multiple different reporters. But people here still pretend that it's all bullchit

OG wants out guys. Let's just get the best deal we can get for him, move on from FVV and go all in on Scottie

Dyson Daniels would be the perfect fit. Hopefully we get some draft picks and surround him with shooters. He would make life easier for the team because he's an excellent playmaker with size.

No you’re absolutely right, since he’s the #1 trade option this season he’s going to be covered the same as if it were a star player demanding to be traded.

They can trade both, it's been proposed many times in the trade board over the past month.

Don't need JV.

They have the filler in Graham, Temple and Hayes.

No you're absolutely right, the media who cover the trade deadline like maniacs since there isn't much else going on before the superbowl would ignore this years top trade target, that multiple contenders are interested in trading for, telling a member of another team that they should trade for him. The lipreading sluethery by an anonymous internet rando is definitely what happened.

If OG goes Fred needs to as well. It would go a long away to re-balancing the roster since FVV has now rehabilitated a good portion of his previous value.

Pelicans board thinks they can get OG without giving up daniels. They also don’t think Trey fits well with Zion and would want OG and Daniels to lock down on defence.

As much as i want that Lakers pick what are the realistic chances they trade it? doubt they want to lose a lottery pick where they could potentially get Wemby

They probably should not trade it as if it ends up hitting in the lottery it is worth way more in 4 months. They would be way smarter to move Daniels IMO and then replace him with a lottery pick.
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.
