Oh hell.



Aldridge?

Better not be...

I think Lillard's tweet is in response to Kanter.

 

[B-Roy]

I'm way too fucking amped for FA - literally stalking old Serge Ibaka tweets on Twitter. Can 3PM just get here already? I can't do any work.

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

I’m thinking Aldridge and Rondo to finish things up

then Hood would be the icing on the cake for depth

 

[glazeduck]

Harkless would be nice. I'm just hoping it's Aldridge.

More likely just ET. ugh

I know he was a good locker room guy, but hard to imagine Casey going that bananas for ET coming back...

Jared Weiss: Reporting over in @The Athletic app on the Enes Kanter trade to Portland. Kanter was able to choose between going to Memphis and Portland and elected to return back to where he had the best run in his career, per league sources.

Same. I have a zoom interview call right when FA starts. Gonna be checking those tweets during, I just know it.

 

[Labinot41]

Oh hell.



Aldridge?

God damit i hate these cryptic posts.

 

[Natebishop3]

I don't know... that could be about Kanter.... but it sure would be boring.

 

[Scalma]

I don't know... that could be about Kanter.... but it sure would be boring.

I just can’t see Casey getting that pressed about Kanter.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

What? They USED the exception to get Kanter.

The deal would've been Kanter + 30 for 2-seconds. Portland got Mephis to give up the 2nds and to take Mario to get the #30,

Yeh, I just read that. That's kind of a bummer. I had hoped for Bjelica with the exception.

 

[Chris Craig]

But we would have to sign and trade Whiteside for Aldridge right? Thats the only way

 

[Labinot41]

I just can’t see Casey getting that pressed about Kanter.

Yep, if Casey posts some cryptic shit it has more to do just Kanter. Something is going on. Very strange

 

[B-Roy]

I just can’t see Casey getting that pressed about Kanter.

I can. Dude is employed by the team.

 

[illmatic99]

hence the wait til FA starts

 

[Chris Craig]

hence the wait til FA starts

Why couldn't have been at fucking noon like the trade moratorium

 

[Hoopguru]

Could also just be a reference to Kanter, since there was some back-and-forth grievances aired last year after he ended up in Boston...

LMA

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

hence the wait til FA starts

Not sold on SA wanting whitside...they would probably wanna blow it up

 

[tester551]

I can. Dude is employed by the team.

And as such, he can't say anything publicly about Kanter until AFTER the trade is official. Hence, he need to be cryptic for now.

 

[Chris Craig]

Aldridge is coming I can feel it

 

[tester551]

Not sold on SA wanting whitside...they would probably wanna blow it up

Agreed. Especially at the $19M price tag it would take to get the trade to work.

Sean Elliot was absolutely gushing about Hassan this past season when we played them. He's their color guy on the broadcast. I remarked then about how we should keep an eye on that. Whiteside routinely torches them. I just don't know what else we can give them. And they'd have to agree on an Hassan for at least a year on a large $ deal.

Would they want Zach? We can do Collins + Whiteside for Aldridge.

Can't combine players in a S&T I'm pretty sure. For the team signing and trading.

I wouldnt do that...i still believe in Zach

 

[Natebishop3]

It's clearly Paul George.

 

[Labinot41]

Wtf does that shit means

Easy workaround by tossing Collins into their capspace or for a protected second round pick and doing a HW for LA straight up.

 

[Hoopguru]

Pop has been small w/o a rim protector a bit. Whiteside is perfect for his team doesn't require the ball.

Rockets? Watch this is going about how they can announce Covington now.

 

[Hoopguru]

IBAKA

Holy shit we got Covington?

(Casey just found out)
