Is this the same guy who said he was told to take his laptop with him when traveling?


No laptop is tony Jones jazz beat writer for the athletic, this guy is a radio host on the station that is owned by the jazz

Is there a 5 cents version of what was said or not said?


That is the 5 cents version.

PK is saying he never reported anything, he just read a text he got from someone in the org. He's now saying that person is walking it back that the deal is done.

Then he spends the rest of the time whining that people are blaming him.

It's a 2 min clip :lol:


I didn’t hear him say the person he got the text from
Is walking it back..I heard the jazz were annoyed he said the text on air and he himself isn’t reporting the trade just reporting on what the text said


Yea, I just listened to it again. He said they were mad he said it, but he didn't say they refuted it.

His main point is that he doesn't feel like he reported anything other than getting a text message

Where there's smoke? I would guess they are almost there but, still working out details. Not sure why that Radio host would jump the gun like that. It must be close though and he likely has a legit source IMO.

The trade is almost done. That was not an act by the host. He leaked it a little early, but I fully expect the trade to be announced today or within the next week.



I feel like if you knew he was so legit you would be calling him out by his name. Not as "Host".

I wouldn’t say he is walking back his comments. He was more clarifying what was texted him and he is standing his ground on that Don will be traded

Andy Larson said he heard something similar form his other sources as well yesterday

What a shocker, day number 73 of you trying to split up the most dynamic duo this forum has ever seen. It must burn, knowing you predicted a split 73 days ago, only to feel Chanel's knife in your back 72 days ago and have to walk around with it, need I remind you, only 1 of us has been dubbed the biggest bust in Knicks history, and it wasn't me or Melo.

guan0 acting like chanel never backstabbed him

It was a really brutal one yesterday, you could see the hurt in Guan0's reply to ChaHell and now he's pretending like it didn't happen. We need to give him space and let him realize his worth (very low, but still) so he can eventually stand up for himself.

Life gets boring at the top when you're right all the time, so guan0 and I will occasionally say something crazy at the other's expense just to add some spice to this monotonous lifestyle.

Meanwhile you're still trying different passwords to access basketball-reference's admin account so you can tweak RJ and Cam numbers so you can make all your "if" scenarios a reality. It's pointless. They're still gonna be brick artists. And that's ok. You can still love them for who they are.

They don't need to make the ECF for this trade to make sense. They need to keep as many assets as they can out of the deal in order to get another piece after the fact. We have no idea what the price is at this point either.

Brunson is going to move the needle this year by himself. Looking at him play and listening to him recently...I really like this kid. What has been this teams problem for decades? No PG. This is overlooked around here to some extent.

Adding Mitchell makes us that much better. Last year they added Kemba and Evan. I would think Brunson/Mitchell would be miles better than anything they have had as a backcourt in decades. It's what they give up that is the question. What they can do after this deal to improve.

I hope they don't get mugged again.

Man the Utah Jazz talking heads/best guys/whatever PK is gotta man up and tell the Jazz to shut the **** up and stop being bitches about the trade. For as annoying as Stephen A is, anytime he says something and others deny, he sticks by and tells officials and players to back the **** off cause it’s true. If it’s true, he should stick by it 100% without caveats and blaming NY for this blowing up.

LOL we're talking about some local "neighborhood" type guys in Salt Lake City, Utah. They'd go to Mormon hell for even thinking to tell anyone to shut the **** up. They also don't have the balls to do it.

This story is obviously waaayyyy bigger than anything they've ever had to encounter before -- and it showed in how he responded.
