FWIW - Supposedly a Sports Radio producer down in Miami.
Dragic, Justise, and DJJ and a future FRP will be my guess.

Re: Trade for Westbrook?
Well, there goes my excitement for the season.
I am starting to question Gores ownership as well. This current team cannot win, why would you not go after westbrook?
Either blow it up, and get some picks, or make some moves you idiot.
So glad I turned down the season tickets. Would have been a waste of money.
Damn it.

Local radio guy isn’t going to beat WOJ. I’m not breathing a sigh of relief yet. You shouldn’t be mourning.

I'll tell you this, if essentially the same team comes back for next season I'm going to be pissed off.

Re: Trade for Westbrook?
I’ve been finding stuff all over the internet. Not just speculation, that we have made an offer. Fingers crossed. I may be in the minority. But I want him here.

The person who tweeted that isn’t even a journalist. Just some guy who heard it from a friend. Source matters, people.
I’m happy with the direction of the team, or as happy as can be given where we already were before the offseason started.
1)High upside prospect taken over lesser future role player who fits with our mediocre core
2) Taking flyers on guys who might really help us while avoiding long term commitments
3) Holding onto future assets
It’ll take some time, and it’s not sexy, but we’re doing the right thing. At least I think we are. Going for Russ scares me a bit but I won’t worry unless it happens.

This guy pushes back a bit. Not done, but final offers being submitted from all interested teams.

If we are going to believe radio guys’ hearing from friends then Khalil Mack is still in a limo at Detroit Metro.

First guy is a producer at the Heat radio flagship down in Miami. Second guy who refutes that it just some dude who has seemingly broke Heat news in the past. Down the Westbrook trade twitter rabbit hole.

Re: Trade for Westbrook?
We can honestly offer the best package. Not just draft Picks four years into the future.

Reading that eye in the sky Twitter, he says Miami deal not final and Pistons are going hard. He thinks Pistons are offering Drummond. Every other source says Reggie, Snell + picks.

Man, we better not trade Drummond! Give them Sekeo/or Kennard plus 1st rounders.
