Latest trade intel from Jake Fischer

[JujitsuFlip]

“Intel from Jake Fischer”, lol. This dude is a clown on the level of Sam amico.

He correctly reported that Raptors were leaning towards Barnes over Suggs. He was the first to report Bledsoe to Pelicans trade.

You're the clown here.

Glad to know the blind squirrel found a few nuts. If you are going to post questionable sources, be strong enough to handle the backlash.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day lol sorry the bold made me think of that quote.

Seems like your the one not able to be able to handle the backlash. You just don't like him but have no evidence. Probably talked bad about your team once.

If by “talked bad once” you mean has been completely wrong on all predictions and statements about okc, then yea. But hey, if his statements are talking points for the casuals, then go ahead and enjoy it.

Jake Fischer did correctly predict the Evan Fournier signing for the Knicks before Woj and Shams. I think he has some legit sources

He had several scoops last summer, he definitely has legitimate sources. But if people choose to ignore that and be ignorant then whatever, go ahead.

Guys there's some good info in the OP but the thread is mostly y'all insulting each other. Let's clean it up please.

What he says about Boston seems very reasonable (unlike so many who are saying that the C's are trying to / need to trade away Brown). I could easily see Shroeder being traded, and Boston trying to improve around the Jays a bit.
When Ainge was in charge, you never really expected a trade to go through (lots and lots and lots of talking about trades, though), but now with Stevens behind the wheel, it should be interesting to see what happens.

But the Lakers have called rival teams to assess the trade value of DeAndre Jordan, Dwight Howard and Kent Bazemore.

It takes a few teams like the Pelicans, Blazers and Kings having the realization that they aren't in the playoff stakes and this being a buyer's market, they could sell high to grease the wheels for the trade season.

I think the next two weeks is going to be crucial.
With PG13 injury and Dame's injury you could see LAC and Portland drop out and the Kings and Pelicans move up.
The Kings definitely will be making moves to compete.

I like how all these sources didn't break that Reddish had requested a trade in the off season, that many players, and GMs around the league had caught wind. It's the main reason many teams didn't offer a 1st until NYK jumped on it. Somehow this particular insider couldn't break that story that was relatively known.

Well it's because that retired mod who chose to be ignorant and discredit the reporter.

Anyway, thanks for validating the OP.

Portland already knows it’s out of the playoffs. Don’t think there’s any need for them to “realize” it. Most expect the Blazers to be sellers with RoCo, Nurk, CJ and maybe Powell available for the right prices. Honestly, most everyone is probably available aside from Dame.

LOL @ a first-round pick for Gary Harris

He's playing well. His TS is 57% and he plays good defense. He also has an expiring contract. The Magic may end up keeping him or they could let him walk next season and have max cap space. If we didn't have so many guards they'd keep him for sure.

I could see the Thunder taking a big swing for the right player. They have 3 legit players with Giddey, SGA, and Dort. Two more good players and they're a playoff team.

His career trajectory has been so weird...like it wasnt a gradual taper off just a straight down decline

Yup he's popped up on radars. I think he's definitely legit at this pt. Not shams/woj level, but in the next tier

What are your thoughts on a realistic roster turnover?

He had some injuries and now he's healthy.

He has reported multiple things about the thunder and all were wrong. Even going back to this year he had a false report about okc trading Kemba for assets. Jake Fischer reports are a joke among thunder fans on another website. I question his sources.

So yes, as a retired mod, I can call him a clown. You made it personal by calling me ignorant and a clown instead of asking why I said what i did. I have no hard feelings toward you personally.

This may be the longest he has been healthy since he originally injured his hip in 2018. He has always tried to force his way back early and then as he gets the rust off and he started to put numbers up again he would get injured again.

The last time I can remember a role player on an expiring deal fetching a first round pick was Marcus Morris, who was averaging 20 PPG and leading the league in 3 point shooting on the Knicks. Not seeing Harris as playing at that level. Some good seconds maybe.
