What does your Brooklyn source say about the Crabbe deal?

He said since they wanted him last year, to get him this year AND to get rid of a contract was a good think. Thinks he will fit in well playing off of Russell as they really need an outside shooter to stretch the floor. Also fits in with all of the young players there from an age standpoint. Thinks he will grow with more minutes and a starting role instead of being behind two alphas like he was in Portland.

Ok now onto more important issues

What number will Hartenstein wear in Portland
 
TBpup said:
He would not comment on the pieces although he believes Portland is involved. Just said the pieces were 'interesting'. He was quite reluctant to share more than that.....I tried. Said HOU is trying like crazy for one thing that is holding this up but basically everything else was pretty much agreed to.

He did say HOU could possibly work this out w/o POR but that they wouldn't budge so far in some of NYK demands which is why he thinks POR could get in there.

The question is do we WANT in this sucker?

I'm not walking up all those stairs to get beat up. How about the Tabor tavern instead.

Or the old Mt Tabor Theater which is now Quarterworld I believe. We could just do all of the fighting on the arcade machines. I got dibs on Sub Zero.

The first rule of Bare Knuckle Battle Royale At Mt Tabor Club is: Don't talk about Bare Knuckle Battle Royale At Mt Tabor Club.

We really do need to shorten the name though.



Interesting side note just to tie everything together. Last time I went to Mt Tabor, I ran into Chuck Palahniuk.
 
Did I miss the memo about the reason why the "100%" trade going down at 5:45 didn't actually go down at 5:45?

Yeah. I've met him. Interesting guy. I thought Choke was better than Fight Club. My friends would kill me for saying that. They are such fan boys.
 
I'd love this trade:
Trade Machine 3.png

Send NYK our 2017 1st.

We replace Harkless and Crabbe with Shumpert and Lee. Both are good defenders that can shoot the 3 ball. We send out Leonard, which is a bonus as well. Love and O'Quinn fills out the frontcourt. Love would be a great mentor for Swanigan, with Love being the present and Swanigan being the future. O'Quinn gives Collins time to develop. Davis is insurance.

Lillard / McCollum
McCollum / Lee
Turner / Shumpert
Love / Vonleh / Swanigan
Nurkic / O'Quinn / Collins / Davis

NYK Gets Harkless and a future 1st (could also throw in Vonleh if they want, as we'd still have a logjam of big men) They need a PG so they get a local kid in Napier.

CLE Swaps Love for Melo to try to make Lebron happy. They also trade one of their SGs (they have a logjam there) to get a backup PF that could guard Durant. They likely then try to trade Kyrie for a good SG or C.

I've read every book of his and Fight Club doesn't make my top 10. I have a couple of awesome Chuck P stories I'll have to share later. Gotta watch my grill.

Plus, the Crabbe deal would set up this deal with the resulting TPE that we got from trading Crabbe to Brooklyn, which we would use on Lee.

Whenever someone says something will go down at a certain time, "100%," add 14 hours to the time and replace "100%" with "I literally have no idea but this is how you talk on Twitter."
