NBASupes Posted February 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 There is a chance we could make a play for PG or Butler during the draft. We shall see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wanted more than what they lead on. Honestly, blame teams like Denver and blame Boston. Boston didn't want to trade the farm so we didn't have too. Honestly, if Chicago and Indy wanted too much... They wanted too much. The issue is that the rest of the roster has a lot of holes that need to be filled. Here is what I think of think "trying their best": Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazer Posted February 23, 2017 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 So they made a good trade with Philly, got rid of 2 injured players/contracts who were just taking up space and collecting splinters, and made a run at PG13, Jimmy, and Chandler. C+, B for effort. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 If the Lakers keep their pick this year, the Pacers will re-visit trade with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimsey Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 NBA was right after all. I just don't see how the Hawks would have the nerve to offer anything less than any combo of Dennis, Millsap, and any 1st they'd acquired. Honestly the best option is developing the rookies and draftees into good trade value down the line if there is a chance at a top level allstar player per trade. I'm hoping for a noticeable leap from the two young rooks but I ain't gonna hold my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFuzz Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 We tried. We failed, but we tried. Better to do that than sit on our hands constantly. We need a backup point and we need Prince to make a leap to have any kind of shot this year. Some ECF would be nice, I think we can hang with the Raps and Celtics, less confident against Wizards or Cavs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Popular Post Sothron Posted February 24, 2017 Premium Member Popular Post Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Supes just showed his cred for those that doubted him. He was the first one saying PG13 was possibly being shopped and it wasn't until after he posted here that other sources picked up on it. So if anyone was doubting the guy he just proved himself if you needed proof. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Yeah I'll give credit for Supes but it takes putting two and two together on this. I saw on another forum that there was an article that said "Unless PG knows he can contend for a title, he's not signing the super max with Indiana." Putting logical two and two together, if Indy knows they can't appease PG, they'll trade him or let him walk. Knowing about this article, before the trade rumor came out, I knew there was a chance he'd be on the block. Why would he want to go to LAL though?

They can doubt me though, they are entitled to their own opinion of me. Edited February 24, 2017 by NBASupes 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Eh it appears you may have been onto something this time but a warning track out is still an out and so far you're batting .000 on these rumors over the years. They're entertaining and some people still get excited over them so I can't hate on you for posting them... but until one of these actually happens I'm going to remain a skeptic. Good on you for not giving a damn about being called out though Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Quote Nick Friedell: League source says Boston never made this year’s Brooklyn pick available to Bulls in trade discussions centered around Jimmy Butler. 3 hours ago – via Twitter NickFriedell KC Johnson: Whenever Nets’ pick surfaced in Celtics-Bulls talks, Celtics added unknown protections on the pick, per sources. 53 mins ago – via Twitter KCJHoop As long as the BKN picks weren't in play, this is why the Hawks were able to make a pitch.
