I must be having a stroke. Wasn't that reported during the draft itself that LAC traded Reddick for a first round pick?? I could've swore that I remember seeing that on the ESPN draft show, unless they just jumped the gun a bit and reported it wrong at first.

This is kind of scary if I just pulled this out of thin air lol

Wonder if CBS calls Bazemore again?

He would be a good fit.

. . . AND he looked good against the C's.

Ah, well I'm pretty sure that ESPN reported it on their draft show, so I don't feel too terribly bad now for that lol

Not really a free agent rumor, but interesting nonetheless:

Bulls Shopping Taj Gibson

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2648630-taj-gibson-trade-rumors-latest-buzz-and-speculation-on-bulls-star

A) This might be a good, one-year option for us at PF if he comes cheap and we strike out on everything else;

B) Some have interpreted this as further evidence that the Bulls are wanting to tear it all down and rebuild, especially since they're almost guaranteed to lose Noah and Pau in free agency, though Lopez's arrival might make this possible, too. It'll be interesting to see if more rumors come out about Butler in the next couple of months, because maybe their price will drop where it will be feasible and actually practical to trade for him.

Dude you're not alone. I mentioned a Redick trade on Reddit and I got downvoted to oblivion. I coulda sworn I saw it too
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

Ha! Good. I was thinking that I was going crazy making up fantasy trades in my head from nowhere lol I'm 99% sure that we must have saw it on the ESPN draft broadcast. I wondered at the time what kind of idiot move that was lol

Knicks get a head start.

They're not getting a head start; they're trying to get what we, San Antonio, GS, OKC, Miami, and LAC already have.

Celtics also have a meeting set up with Horford - only team who has meeting with both Durant AND Horford!

Our secret master plan of pairing them together is finally coming together...

In what world do they think they even have a chance for Durant? Do they think that they have 2011 Rose or something? Don't they only have like $35M in cap space and only four players on their roster right now?? lol

"The Atlanta Hawks will compete to re-sign Al Horford with the Los Angeles Lakers, Houston Rockets, Orlando Magic, Detroit Pistons, Washington Wizards, Boston Celtics and Brooklyn Nets."

I mean, if he cares mostly about winning, we're easily number one in that group, right? An argument may be made for the Hawks, but their core is quite old and has proven incapable of getting past Cleveland, let alone winning a freaking game

Sounds nice if you believe the old report that Horford was somebody Durant wanted to play with I doubt it though. His other suitors are filled with guys way better than Horford
