    And even if they do, they would've to add Winslow to match Butler's contract, McGruder wouldn't be enough...unless they also add JJ or TJ for Dieng.

    Anyway, after 3 days from when we had those updates by ch and cyberx which made me pretty positive, i'm starting to get a bit nervous again...Riley went in panic mode other times in the past, i wouldn't rule out him doing the same this time.

    Miami would have to be stupid as hell to make a trade like that.

    Not trying to hate, but when did Codman become an insider?

    He's been an insider from the beginning. He has a job that allows him to speak to people in the know around the league.

    It may not be actionable news, but think of him as a fly on the wall during discussions that reports back to you.

    Not sure how betting the over on season wins is sharp. Winning the chip seems like a possible value play, with or without Buckets.

    Too much time has passed for me to believe we can land him. It doesn’t take very long for front offices to go through counter offers and different scenarios to finally agree with something.
    They’ve seen what Houston and Miami have to offer and don’t want it. A team that hasn’t been talked about much will usually swoop in a la Melo last summer.

    Also I just saw Nick Johnson on the Spurs bench. Ayyyy

    Sometimes these things work out for us, sometimes not. This isn't and I'm ok with that.

    Gabrielle Union is 45. Jimmy Butler has great taste.

    Red flags when I saw the Rocket needed a third team. Rockets never get that third team.
