    Guys... Doc called D12 in FEB the summer before. He clearly knew there was interest from both the team to Howard and Howard to the team.

    Yep. He called it before the All Star game that previous season.

    Also, when top media members were telling the world that Dwight Howard changed his mind, Doc called it nonsense the second he heard the news. He knows his stuff.

    If we're going after KK, then he's got to be attached to Kevin Love, right? Don't see how we would get KK by himself...

    A package of Nene, Aaron Jackson and Onuaku would work salary wise. I’d imagine all we’d have to attach to that is a 2nd.

    That would be the logical assumption and also a sign that EG is on the way out. Maybe for a bigger fish...

    And we'd become instantly worse defensively, like really bad defensively. Another dumb suggestion cooked up by clutch fans.

    Korver was respectable defensively in the playoffs.

    Kyle Korver will be a Laker.

    Either that or Doc's just saying he's always wanted Kyle Korver -- not necessarily we're going after him. He's boring when he's not cryptic. :(

    Doc Rocket is legendary. Glad to see anything from him.

    From my ear, I've heard Cleveland is cleaning house, so I can see Korver making sense. But, the the larger gift from the Land is Love, which I keep writing as my XO.

    One or both would be great. KLove is a stretch 4...but what MOST people forget is that this guy used to be a 25/10 player or more on any night. He was a beast. Cleveland sabotaged his game. He's worth the price. I hope that ear comes through.


    Anyway, glad to hear from Doc. Always.

    I'm done tonight. Again, I just happen to have an earpiece full of good friends, players, couple of coaches, some higher ups, and again, the players.

    Deals change instantly. (EDIT--I stepped into the kitchen; Should expect burns). I guess it comes with the territory of sharing what you know. I'm satisfied with my ears.

    So, with that, I'm calling it a night.

    PSS...The GREAT Vince "Vinsanity" Carter has a couple of decent offers. He's 40 years old. The fight in him should take any negativity out of your heart for awhile.

    Clutch/Cyber/Doc/Will/Ch/Cat and whomever else have this craziness covered. I'm sweating on the couch, chicken noodle and watching anything unrelated to health. :)

    Night...be patient.

    No one is forgetting Kevin’s game. It’s just blatantly obvious he’s unattainable for our team short of us giving up Capela in a sign and trade.

    Would be great to get KLove

    And if we can add Krover that would be great as well. We need better shooters. We lost coz of the refs and because no one was making their 3s
