I've always wondered that. Seems totally within the realm of possibility in this day and age.

Would not surprise me at all if he knows what's going on in both Sham's and Woj's Twitter accounts. He just doesn't sound professional and promotes himself way too much. He's got a bug somehow, if he's not just pulling things out of his backside.
Allot of these executives are from the older generation and may not be tech savvy in the first place. All it would take is one or two guys' smart phones being compromised and someone would have a wealth of insider info.

Would you do this trade ? http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=yxz2o4bu we add our worst first round pick
No Dragic so Miami can have a back up pg for cp3
Miami
Cp3/dragic
Butler/ herro /nunn
Derric Jones Jr , Robinson / butler
Omynyk/ M Leonard
Bam / M Leonard / Haslem

J johnson and D waiters are more friendly contracts to move than cp3 we can get a second for those guys maybe a 1 ( thats a BIG maybe ) we can try out Winslow and check if he fit with our new team

We would have to give up two first round picks to get Winslow. No way we will get Winslow for a first tu dump CP3

Be more ambitious, thor. Only Winslow for sending Miami Paul’s bloated contract and your first-round pick? Ask for more! You’re letting them off too easily!

That’s a bit ambitious.

Most of the stuff I’m seeing on the Miami board and their writers are still saying that they have no interest in paul unless we throw multiple picks at them. Let’s hope Presti holds true to himself and sends him somewhere we aren’t expecting.

they also had 20 pages of excitement about the possibility of getting Westbrook, then they still wanted him but without giving ANY asset, and after that they were pissed he ended up in Houston :crazy:

The more Presti can do is add a second to that first round , we are getting players that dont move the needle , no dragic so they can compete, it just dion , johnsom and winslow, he is the only player that I see have some value to us, is two of their worst contract for a upgrade at pg and star to pair with butler and a pick for winslow, and is him for his contract , bam and herro have friendly contracts

I hope so, if Miami is just asking for that much they dont get anything. Dont think orlando do it , new york dont do it with westbrook, but new york knicks are strange maybe they do it with cp3. No detroit.

Which team would you pick to trade CP 3 ???

Well, like on all boards, there are different opinions. There have been a contingent that haven't wanted either of them and a contingent that wanted both. And a hefty portion of those that have wanted both haven't wanted to give up assets for them. Which...is pretty understandable.

I dont like wiggings but a lot of people say cp3 is a cancer in the locker room , I say roll the dice with wiggings and lets try to get one good year of him and then trade him
Know thats hard :lol: :lol: :cry:
Pick
-give lot of assets to get cp3 to miami for dion waiters, james johnson, olynyk or dragic
-dont give assets take wiggings and dieng contract and maybe we get a first round pick or two

Say you don't want to overcompensate another team with draft picks. What player could you throw in that might get another team to bite? CP3 + Adams for Olynyk, James Johnson, Dragic and Winslow works in the Trade Machine for instance.

The spurs love old dudes. They just don’t have the contracts to make a trade for CP3 that makes sense.

White and Murray are pretty good point guards for the Spurs.

The spurs are a hard team to figure out. They seem to like veterans. It’s not out of the ordinary for the, to get rid of a player that you think they would want to keep. Example- Davis Bertans. They overpaid for Pao Gasol for too long.

Which big both teams signed? So many players into free agency that I'm lost right now :lol:

Not new that the Kings (at least their fans) wanted Steven Adam. I would like to keep Adams this year (and even more if he wants to stay in OKC) but if we get a very good offer...
