Indy could waive Collison now that they have Holiday. I'm cool with Smart as long as it's not crazy money.

This draft made free agency a little easier for them. They really aren't forced in any direction and can kind of let the chips fall instead of forcing something and overpaying for need.

Pretty sure Indy isn't getting rid of Collison. No reason to, you don't just hand rookie PG's a starting job when your team isn't terrible.

Yeah, and I think they want to play Holiday off the ball for now anyway.

I know this is just Gambo's opinion but for once, I agree with him. I don't like Chriss' future with the Suns despite what Kerrsed showed from a defensive stats standpoint. I prefer Bender's low usage 3PT shooting, passing and perimeter defense potential

Gambo's credibility is shot. He knows nothing except the obvious.

Kinda feel bad for the dude you know he had a bad day. He not only got hosed on the swap with philly. But he also literally just misread one of his text messages and got so nervous he didn't think for two seconds and posted that the Charlotte trade would be ours. Its one thing to just not get the info right because of a last second change. But the text message fiasco would never happen to a sports guy who gets syndicated in the future. Just a sloppy mistake.

Yeah, while tonight could have been some honest mistakes, it was fairly bad. I will probably never believe him on anything ever again unless it is backed up by another source. Everything he says is 100% his opinion or something he read on Woj's Twitter

Especially if you consider that he hasn't really had accurate insider info in some time. Tonight did him zero favors

And the way he tries to save face is embarrassing. He should just admit he had a bad day a move on. At 31 he kept saying over and over "99% we take Elie unless the suns get another call in the last 30 seconds out of the blue. But that's what they told me. Im not lying. They told me. How would I know 30 seconds we would get a cal..." and on and on. cringe.

I more wonder who actually fits that is ascertainable and worth getting.

If we: strech chandler and strech dudley, renounce Len, that is $13.6m in cap room without even thinking. Another $5.5 if Williams is waived so you are sitting at $19.1m with Williams being the only real player to go with Payton still sitting there.

Lots of possibilities if they can land someone, the question is who and how much.

Chriss, dudley, and the bucks pick for Klove?

That big man passing plus spacing. Might have issues on interior D but who knows Ayton might be a decent defender. Klove gives bender time to develop off the bench.

Well if you are trading one in a package for a better player, which one is the opposing team going to want? The Young Raw former #4 Bender or Temperamental Chriss? My money says Bender, and if we are using him in a package for a better player (Say Kemba), i dont think that Sending Bender instead of Chriss would hold us back. One of them most likely will be used in a trade package and i dont think it really matters THAT MUCH to our FO which one it is.

The douche was F5'ing Twitter non stop and Copy/Pasting others tweets about picks and passing them off as his own. No retweets, not giving credit, just copy/paste and posting them all a minute after the pick was leaked on twitter. That is embarrassing. Like sure, you might hear stuff here and there, but if you dont have the clout to get that kind of info, then dont tweet about it acting like you do, just give your opinion like everybody else not named Woj or Shams.

And then when you FINALLY have your team up and think you have the goods......but utterly blow it and once again lose out to Woj, you just have to LOL at that and take the L.

Gambo just needs to go back to talking s**t and giving his horrible opinion on sports and leave the "Breaking Inside News" to the real journalist who have the real sources......instead of using them as HIS "Sources".
