[Jake Fisher] The word surrounding OG Anunoby’s trade candidacy

[douggood]

one article from fisher doesnt start all these rumors. if that were the case there would be rumours glore for everyone.

i am inclined to think there is something legitimacy here. raptors might be ready to move OG and have him on the auction block.

Yes it does when so many teams fanbases/media start ranting " I want me one of those on my team. What can we offer?"

where are the daily myles turner reports then? even jeremi grant who we know is on the block, we dont get daily rumors about.

maybe just maybe there is some credence to these rumors.

its near impossible to guage a players trade value around the league without it leaking.

You laugh but I think we would turn Kuminga into a MONSTER if we got a chance to develop him with Scottie. Other posters can flame all they want but I'd do it (well if that pick is our 2nd lol).

I’d consider it but OG is a known commodity and takes GS to even another level. Kuminga is a project who looks lost on the court way too often. And Wiseman is…well…wiseman. I might be open to it but no way would I include any picks, even 2nd rounders

Ya, id have to be sure that Wiseman holds some decent league value, cause i really dont like him as a prospect and would look to flip him or make it a 3 team deal

Marc Stein reported Wednesday that the Pacers are going to keep Turner. Not sure about Grant. Again, what OG rumours are you talking about?

With Kuminga, it's all between the ears. His jumper/form is better than i thought it would and he's as explosive as it gets at 6'8. Im sure the FO interviewed him during the pre-draft process, so they know if they can turn him into a monster or not

it's pretty risky....their basic stats, didn't look bad...
but they showed they were really raw

it's quite risky, plus i think GSW would prefer to trade for a superstar and not OG

I think GSW would love this kind of deal. OG is young enough to still be a part of their post Curry years and they dont have to trade Wiggins here as salary attachment, like they would need to do with every other type of trade.

so where is the report about raptors keeping OG?

no specific rumors, but the buzz from multiple people/teams is that OG is in play.

Don’t think the Warriors can acquire a superstar with that kind of package unless they also include Poole

I don't really see Lillard being like we need OG, of all the players he could have mentioned lol

The original report said the Raptors have made their top 6 unavailable since the trade deadline. Even this report is from an Eastern Conference exec speculating on behalf of the Warriors to Heavy.com. C'mon. You think heavy.com is a leading source for basketball rumours. It's another Boston writer who is probably at the finals talking to Celtic execs, and then they just make **** up on the spot.

With the assets they have, who else do you think he could realistically want? OG is the perfect player for Portland considering how poor their defense is and the fact that OG can score without demanding too much of the ball away from Dame. He instantly becomes their 2nd best player.

I don’t see many other players in the league that fits them better with what they could potentially acquire with their assets

the report was at the deadline the raptors made the top6 unavlaible , didn't say the top 6 was unavailable at the moment.

I think it’s becoming pretty clear that if one of the core is moved it’ll likely be OG. Where there’s smoke there’s fire. A lot of us called this early last year

[WuTang_CMB]

Why would Raps publicly

address any of these OG rumours and confirm he's off the table lol

.. they won't. Keep teams guessing and let the bidders bid for him on draft night.

It doesn't cost us anything to receive proposals and listen

Masai knows what hes doing and frankly that's what a good GM would do

the player that should be moved is Trent.

I love OG, probably more than most, but I don't where Lillard thinks a Lillard/OG core is going.

I can only assume that Lillard (and Portland) would see OG as a good piece to build with, as opposed to the second half of a high powered duo. For example, bring back Nurk, add OG, and find a couple really good "out of nowhere" talents" to build along with Simons & Little (assuming Little isn't included), and suddenly they have a workable roster. But obviously I yada yada ed the hardest part, which is whoever those out of nowhere guys are...

Beyond that, it sounds to me like they clearly don't HAVE to trade him - there's no threats or demands. My guess is that there is some fire to the smoke - OG is young and wants to expand his role as an offensive player, and it's pretty clear that he'll be the 5th option next season if Scottie keeps improving.

It also didn't say they were taking calls on OG. It's a little curious that only Jake Fischer has heard all this and no one else has backed him up. Not one other writer.

[GreatWhiteStiff]

OK, so rumours are swirling that OG is unhappy with the raptors. How hard would it be for a kid OG's age (I'm old, forgive me, I'm old) to get on "socials" and dispel such rumours assuming he is happy here? Or that there's no truth to them or what not.

I've heard rumblings that DelAbbot is unhappy with the rumours that OG is unhappy here. #multiplesauces #pekingorderguild

It's possible he sees himself as the kawhi leonard type he is hyped up to potentially being in certain offseason realgm threads. If he did want a larger role in the offence, he ain't about to find it in this pecking order world Del and 720 keep harping about. He's also in Toronto, not exactly a free agent destination, though he's contracted here. Maybe he wants to go to the states.

I mean OG, his kids maybe learn about the metric system or other alchemy here.

OG is probably the last guy who would go and say anything on social media about any rumors regarding him
