    Guys, this is clearly a reference to Hasan Whiteside. And...Justice Winslow. Re-arrange Wilson...Winslo. We have been talking to Riley about this deal since the summer. Most likely it will be Capela and Knight going out, adding with at least one of Chriss/Nene, Melo, and possibly even Edwards and one of the young centers. We'll be getting back Hassan, Whiteside, plus other parts than make sense including possibly picks. Maybe even Luc. Maybe Ellington, Daniels. And the deal could possibly be broadened to include Gordon going out for Dragic. But that's not as likely. Capela most likely winds up with Clippers, Kings, or Nets.

    Has anybody figured this out yet?

    @cyberx we're waiting for the #cyberxbomb.

    the westies are the Pels. We're dangling Capela/Gordon/youngsters plus picks for Davis/Hill right now. This is why the Lakers are scrambling. Lakers can't take back Hill with Davis and still sign Durant next summer. We can afford to eat the Hill contract if the Pels break it down. #chess. And I haven't even gotten to the Warriors. They're giving d-day on Feb. 7th. We've got to be ready for that too. That's why we're moving now. There will be a huge move on or near Dec.15. And it likely means Capela is gone or Gordon is gone and there's a huge incoming salary, most likely Whiteside with Winslow but also possibly one of the Wizards or even Chandler Parsons. (Not as likely.)

    We haven't heard from @cyberx in a while now. That should speak to you. No leaks!!! Allegedly. But there should have been a deal on or before the 7th. Remember, we just signed Paul. We didn't give him $160 million to be also-trans and failures. No way! So all the talk about folding this team up....you'd better look the other direction. Too much invested. We could have dealt Knight Friday and we didn't do it. Why? Think about it. Now we can't aggregate at the deadline except with these guys we currently have. So do you really think we're Judy going tiki the deadline as-is or with some token small trade.....That will FURTHER ERODE our ability to aggregate at the deadline. Better think again.

    For sure he would do that.
    Hakeem would block KD's shot at the rim as if it was child's play too. Also he would score a ton of points from Chris and Harden's passing. EG would be automatically shooting between 40-45%.
