It is actually trolling.

just because a poster doesn't like a player and wants to trade him, doesn't make it trolling.

everyone has differing opinions.


Unfortunately I have to agree with Sachmo. MKG is a nice defender and all, but he definitely is not untouchable as far as trades go. I love him to death, but holy hell his jumper is getting worse


I've never suggested he is untradeable or untouchable.

The point of my comment was that everything is brought back to MKG in multiple threads even when it is not necessary subject matter, the reported offer for Turner is Gordon, how many times have we discussed Gordon in this thread?

Why pages and pages of MKG discussion then? Don't we have an MKG thread?

It is the same posters over and over again bringing up MKG, it's almost like looking for an argument at this point.

You can blame Ichiro for the MKG stuff. I do agree it is annoying. You can especially blame him for Turner. BUT, he was on the Turner bandwagon way before we were even rumored for him. So good for him for that. As far as MKG being traded? Thats just stupid. We better get great value back if we do.

Master Ichiro is a good poster, he knows I think that too which is why our 'debates' are spirited but friendly.

This MKG talk has at (a lot of) times derailed the Evan Turner thread, the Taj Gibson thread, the trade thread and game threads, instead of the possibility of discussing other potential trades or the actual reported trade offer it is all being brought back to MKG.

I like Evan Turner, I've never said I don't like him, his actual value though is not really up for much debate, BG+PDX pick would almost be like giving up too much value at this point, though I would do that trade.

Its especially giving up too much when Gordon Hayward is waiting in the wings in FA. Im a Hayward homer.

Hayward for 8-10m is much more palatable than Turner for 8-10m.

There are 234508753748165063017163507 possibilities with the assets and flexibility we currently have, Hayward is most definitely one of those possibilities.

this thread has gone in circles probably because there isn't a great deal to talk about discuss.

Its about a rumour that we want Evan Turner.

In all honesty I find it difficult to read through this thread as it becomes a rehash of the same arguments.

It might be time to lock it up.

That's all I was saying Sach.

How this(Turner discussion) has gone for 28 pages is unfathomable.

Until something new is revealed in regards to Evan Turner I'm going to lock this thread.

Further trade discussion can go in the trade thread.

MKG discussion in that thread etc
