1. Beal - benefits the most from Wall's character being assassinated.
2. Rivers - Generally has loose lips with the media and has great connections with them through his dad

Rivers for the locker room/practice leaks - known snitch from Clippers days.

Front office leaks - Beal agent or some GM trying to shake Beal loose from Wiz.

I think SAS made up his story based on Woj and Shams reports.

Context for those of us who don't know what you're talking about.

Ernie. Stephen A. thinks of Ernie as his "uncle." He gets to deflect blame for the bad start on Brooks and the players.

Snitch about what exactly? About Wall partying? Damn near everyone that goes out in DC...Wall is a young rich man...i guess people could snitch on all the wiz.

One of the players in the locker room allegedly texted Stephen A this:

"We love Scott Brooks. Love playing for him. He just can’t coach John. John just walks all over him and it frustrates everybody. The way he plays is impossible to play with. We have so many guns, not enough bullets."


Question is.. who is it? I think its Rivers. Also, I see what they were doing using the term bullets :lol:

I wish these guys would be REAL men and confront John about this stuff. Gortat had no problem doing it.

Gortat didn't "confront" John. He used twitter to throw shade...and then denied he was doing that.

However, it does sound like Jeff Green confronted John during practice. Not sure what it was about though.

I think its Dwight.

Its definitely not a core guy.

Oubre already has cursed Brooks himself.

Kieff is Wall's guy.

Beal wouldn't do it even though he's sick of the situation He doesn't think much of Brooks either, same with Porter.

I thought it was Wall who became friends with Rivers this offseason when they were working out together. He's a possibility but being a coaches son I have trouble seeing him break the locker room code of silence.

Jeff Green had an apparent issue with Wall but he's a well respected vet and leaking stuff would seem foreign coming from him.

Now onto Dwight. Dwight is a total clown and the bit about the guys loving to play for Brooks is some over the top bs he would say knowing full well it's the furthest thing from the truth. Dwight seems like the type that refuses to take any situation or scenario too seriously so I wouldn't put it past him to break the code and share inside locker room info.

I don't know - don't really care. But we know that if Gortat were still on the team, people would be blaming him.

Not quite in regards to Gortat..

President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

Beal wants out is the latest rumor. This leaves me more convinced that he's the snitch.

It's definitely Donkey.

Does it generally fly on other boards that outsiders get away with posting garbage threads on unsubstantiated rumors?
