I've give up anything outside of Trae and our 2019 pick to acquire him.

That's the Harden-esque young player Travis was trying to prepare to acquire. But this appears to be too soon.


Definitely think we should try. Not sure what we have that the wiz want but they are stuck trying to build around Wall. I wouldn't give up Trae or collins though.

This is the move/target I've been touting for the last 2 years so I'm glad the 'Zards have finally come to their senses and put the 'for sale' sign out.

I doubt we'll have the best package but, if they want picks, we've got 'em for days. Plus a 2G who could actually keep them in win-now mode. Don't laugh, he's a good culture guy and productive. We can take back salary too (I think, don't quote me on that).

It might not be realistic but Baze/Dedmon/Bembry/Plumlee and a 1st for Beal / Mahmini

It gives the Wiz some actual players and the swap of bad contracts saves them about 3 million a year. If they wanted Prince I'd be ok with that but I doubt they do because he's just going to have to get paid soon. They may want Huerter or Spellman though.

I haven't read the entire article posted, but did it include the snippet about the Cavs asking LeBron to commit long term as part of the decision to not make the trade? Saw a snipoet of that somewhere.

I'm loving the Selts struggle so far this season.
Kemba just took their soul.

Hornets should trade for Beal.

I hope he stays with Charlotte.
MJ needs to provide him with some actual talent.

Super weird. 2 things:

1. Per some folks on the GB, the "attorney" is actually his agent so it's not like he consulted some outside guy and came to this conclusion. He and his agent made this decision which apparently blindsided the organization, based on Brand and Brown's statements.

2. I hadn't been aware, but there was apparently a pretty strong rumor that Fultz had some sort of "bike" accident (not sure if it was motorcycle or BMX bike considering he was actually a big BMX rider - yeah, weird) which allegedly led to the shoulder injury and potential nerve damage. These developments, imho, could be a way to avoid having his contract voided due to violating the provisions prohibited him from engaging in potentially dangerous acts such as bike riding.

That's just a limb I'm going out on based on the rumor. I haven't seen anyone report that.

Hmm....... so your job went from setting you up in lonely conference rooms in Gastonia to lonely cabins in the woods? You've been slinging conspiracy theories left and right lately, kenny g. Hope all is alright...

Doc Rivers in LA doing a great impression of Doc Rivers back in Orlando. He might have usurped Bud's kung fu grip on 'Coach of the Year' Honors.

Beal says he wants to stay in DC.
Might be a push so John Wall doesn't feel like he's the only one going to be moved and the actual plan is for Veal to stay.
I would keep Beam longterm and move John Walls co tract off the books, acquire some value, and move on from Wall.
