Rumors and gossip

[riverman]

Sullinger IMO is a decent PF. Bangs down low and rebounds well. He also has some range. So I would trade them Meyers. But not Plumlee unless we were getting another center somewhere else. But it does not sound like Ainge would match so we could just sign him if we wanted him. But his weight seems to be an issue.

He could mentor Ed Davis on how to put on that 15 pounds

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

most i would give up for sullinger is meyers. Plumlee? Pass...

 

[BBert]

It was not

OK still a good question. (I was fishing.)

So, I'm assuming that the offers on the lesser players are on hold pending the big fish actually inking their contracts tomorrow? I suppose it would suck to tie up your cap space and then have a deal somewhere else in the NBA go south at the last minute and not be able to get in on it.

If Dame could grill his ass in workouts during the summer then I think he'd be fine.

 

[BonesJones]

Taj Gibson would be a great pickup.

 

[BonesJones]

Plumlee for Gibson and a Future 1st? We might be able to get the 1st because they need a backup C that's cheap so they can keep cap space for Wade.

 

[BonesJones]

Quick is saying by 5:15, but he said "might" so who knows.

 

[illmatic99]

Mirotic? Taj Gibson?

 

[BonesJones]

Mirotic? Taj Gibson?

Sadly some teams will take on Calderon and Dunleavy. I wouldn't mind taking on Calderon if they give us a future 1st.

 

[Denny Crane]

Taj Gibson would be a great pickup.

LOL

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Fuck your albatross contracts, Chicago. Good luck!

 

[Denny Crane]

Jimmy Butler for cap space.

Of course we know they really want to do it.

Dallas

 

[illmatic99]

Plums for Rolo. Do it!

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Plums for Rolo. Do it!

If you think plums is gonna be overpaid sure. But i dont really feel like rolo is better than plumlee.

 

[Scalma]

Plumlee for mirotic

Then meyers and moe for Noel

Boom

Rolo helped us so much defensively

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Rolo helped us so much defensively

Meh. There were plenty of times he was useless too. Like against memphis in the playoffs

 

[illmatic99]

Rondo Wade Butler outside means they have to have shooting up front. Maybe they want Meyers. Has to be a three way

 

[santeesioux]

I'm at the point where Taj Gibson would be very exciting.

 

[Scalma]

Quick didn't mention anything about a trade and come on let's be real, hes not going to be the one to break anything really noteworthy.

It's probably just going to be the teams our rfas are meeting with.

Bulls are looking to dump their garbage.

They're both 35+ years old, and Dunleavy had back surgery and missed most of last year. I don't know if a 36 year old body can recover from that and be a capable NBA player. He only looked good in Thibodeau's system.

I'm not sure either is going to give you much on defense, and we don't have a need for them.

Taj Gibson is worth considering, but he's 31 and isn't a stretch 4. We have a pretty good version of him in Davis already.

Yeah but he has a midrange game that extends past 15ft. So that's enough spacing to play him next to Plumlee or Davis.

They're not talking about trading Taj. They're talking about Dunleavy and Calderon. Let 'em have them, I don't see a fit here.

You want Taj for his offensive rebounding, which means next to the basket. He's ok at the pick and pop.

The only announcement they need to make is that CSN is available on dish and direct tomorrow. Until that point, who gives a flying fuck
