Hmmm... GA gets back from Thailand right about the same time the FOs get back from vacation and restart talks.... coincidence?

oh good, that makes me feel better...was just going off snadler...I agree that line doesn't make it clear who called who

Ainge could have called just to check if the Knicks were willing to increase there initial offer...either way that would be a positive showing that Ainge doesn't have a viable plan B.


We're not seeing any reports that Ainge is talking to Charlotte or Washington, despite their interest.

We're the only game in town at the moment


So please don't bid against ourselves. :lol:

Could you imagine if it was Steve Mills leading the negotiations again?

That MFer would grip the back of his ankles and give it all up to Ainge :noway:

That would tell me a lot.


Based on this report sounds like Knicks called Jazz pretty obviously

What report? The tweet?

I don't understand how ppl just come to imaginary conclusions and read something that's not there. Just spreads misinformation

Ahhh so the talks are back on? Are they expecting Ainge to be more reasonable? That’s not going to happen lol.

Imo who called who doesn't really matter. When we last left off the two sides were engaging third parties and then vacationing. It was always coming back on.

Let's make some calls and reconvene.

Nah, Ainge probably took a break to try and get more from the Knicks. We'll see if it works.

More like Ainge took a break and realized he's just going in circles since NOBODY can top our offer.

I predict the deal will eventually get done, but Ainge will need to concoct a way to make it "look" like he won even if he doesn't.
