    Tony Snell (UNM Lobo)
    T.J. Warren (NC State Wolfpack)

    Snell would be another player whose first name is 'Tony'... the air is humming...
    *edit: T.J is also another Tony... Tony Warren Jr. :eek: twitter: TonyWarrenJr

    Good calls. I could see the Suns wanting to move Warren considering their glut of swingmen. Both of those guys have 3+ years on their contracts

    Yeah but Codman said "Morey will add some touch ups when the 3 little pigs agree."

    Butler is a bit more than a "touch up." Touch ups sound like role players.

    heypee i didn't read it this way b/c cod says the 3 little pigs are still working to come to an agreement on sending this wolf somewhere -- sounds more like GM's than our players

    Can the 3rd little pig be PJ, instead of Melo?

    yeah, I should just stay out of speculation. I'm not actually interested...edited my post. I'm just here for the "junk" joke.

    ignore my comment

    Yeah, but this doesn't preclude our guys from trying to sell the idea of coming home, to Jimmy Butler.

    Neither one move the needle for me. I hope that if a move is made, it's for someone else.

    i don't think it's butler though, as Deuce mentioned in post #87

    snell makes a lot of sense for both teams imo

    Yes, I believe you are right, it's not likely to be Butler. The Bucks don't need RA 2 yrs 40 M plus vs Snell 3 yrs 33 M. Is Morey shipping out EG for Snell? That would be a bad move, to say the least.

    I don't want TJ, he doesn't defend at all, despite being a skilled scorer. Snell is okay, he can shoot and defend a bit, get to the line sometimes. Not a game changer, like you pointed out.

    ya i think we'd probably have to eat another contract along with snell, like dellavedova for instance, and maybe dump nanu on them with ryno's contract

    You would think the media.. just one time... would be like “well, we’ve been wrong the past three times, maybe we should give them the benefit of the doubt this time.”

    “Harden can’t be a point guard.”
    “Harden and Paul can’t work well together.”
    “The Rockets just can’t play with Golden State.”

    Hopefully we add “Carmelo can’t fit in the Rockets system” to that list.
