Random Rumor Thread: Post em here

[HartfordWhalers]

I'm referring to that wannabe newsbreaker a couple posts above mine. Pardon my french but I've had it with all these guys attention whoring by just trying to throw **** at the wall. We should just ignore it - everybody knows they don't know ****. It's just a waste of time.

Just because you may not agree with it doesn't mean it's equally as valid as any of the other not-Woj-or-Stein-or-beat-writers rumors in here.

I don't particularly want Westbrook to be traded, but it's not insane to think that they've received calls.

Come on man you can't honestly believe some guy from a WTLC - a fansite for crying out loud - has sources on this kind of stuff. That just ain't happening.

Thats why its called the random rumor thread instead of the legit rumor thread.

On this note, a fun read from Sactown Royalty.

At one point, I thought about posting on of Carmichael Dave's tweets in this thread to see what would happen, then thought better of it.

That Boston deal makes sense if that's what Presti was asking for, and not what Ainge was offering.

nah

Twitter chatter from multiple sources suggesting Westbrook is signing an extension with OKC. Nobody I really know well enough to trust, but enough for the rumor thread anyway.


edit: I see dbrandon is saying this is almost certainly bogus over on the Thunder thread so maybe nothing to see here. Carry on.

Seriously, why come on this forum then? It's a random rumor thread, you seem to be coming here expecting posts from just Wojo or Stein. It's the middle of the summer with almost no basketball, there are going be random(hence the title) rumors floating around and people talking about them because there's nothing more to talk about. I suggest people who for some reason talk these rumors as a personal insult to just avoid the thread altogether. I don't understand why people get so upset over small talk.

Fantastic news for the Thunder.

[pelifan]

I love this contract renegotiation thing in the CBA. More teams should be doing it to lock up their player on favorable deals going forward.

[Dupp]

Wouldn't really be a surprise if he resigns.

Doesn't take a genius to know guys like to throw **** to a wall and see if it sticks with all the rumours and reports Russ wanted out post durant leaving.

Cavs saw the same thing last year with love. People seriously make reports based on the same thing people base their opinions on here. Loves from
LA so he wants to go there.
Even Wojo was guilty of fabricated tweets and " sources" that he was gonna leave last year. In the end love gave little thought to leaving like management and himself said all season.

So hopefully Russ resigns sooner rather than later so thunder and their fans don't have to deal with it all year. It's usually 90% fabricated but still.

PLEASE GOD LET THIS BE TRUE

We will build statues of him all over the city. Parents will name their children after him. August 4 will become "Why Not Day".

Wow, congrats OKC. I'm glad you didn't lose RWB too. He's going to be a beast now that he's the man on that team, I'm excited to watch.

Well that's really interesting.

Noel to Boston actually makes a ton of sense if it were to happen.

There is a horrific rumor floating around out there of Nerlens/LAL 2017 1st for Brandon Ingram too. Either way, good to see this mill start up again. Would like to see this resolved by opening day.

Having seen the source of that, I just don't even see that as a rumor.
