Kirby Jackson Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Good news, didn't want George in Boston. That ends all the talk of Isaiah, Horford, George, Hayward. In my mind that would have been the worst waste of talents I have seen. A short guy and a bunch of softies. No thanks. Let the kids grow. If you want to make a trade for a real player send everything you have for Anthony Davis.He's not going anywhere if Cousins comes back (which they expect). Benson is like 90 years old. I'm still relatively plugged in there and they thought the Davis to Boston rumors were pretty funny. I was told if they sent them Brown, pick 3, the Lakers pick, the Nets pick and 2 starters (most likely Bradley and Smart) it was still a no. Now that could change if Cousins leaves but he's from like 90 miles away. They don't seem to think that's happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommonCents Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Melo, hahaha. As much as I enjoyed the Syracuse run this guy is a total bozo. He is open to waiving his no trade clause to go to the Cavs or Rockets. Like anyone cares? Yah Melo I'm down with living at Hefner's ranch if the porn stars agree to sleep with me.

It would be nice because of the Brad connection but I'm all about the most athletic guys getting paid. Is he really that? I haven't seen him play much in Utah although I did watch him at Butler. All the highlights I have seen are against bad defenders, only move that was memorable was him pump faking Kristaps for a layup. This is probably premature but I don't see why you would pay a max contract and possibly cut into Brown's minutes. He needs to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't "love" any of those guys, but think they need to add someone else for the opposition to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will score his 20+, play good d, handle the ball and can be a go to guy. Hayward has a little length too. Boston has to add him or they are going to lose this cap space. That would be a tragic squandering of assets. Next year that money has to go to their own guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he is going to stay with Utah where he can get more money and play with Rubio. From a publicity standpoint he would be a higher profile player playing with Boston. He would also have a better chance to play in a Championship series if he went to Boston compared to remaining in a conference that has Golden State and Houston. Utah has assembled a good roster and is able to be a serious team, although not a championship caliber of team. My inclination is that he is going to stay where he is.

Heard he was going to Cavs but haven't seen it official Phil Jackson's big genius only works when his strategy is "just get the ball into Michael/Kobe/Shaq's, they'll create a good shot on their own with 3 on the shot clock."
