Dude stop it. Other "insiders" may warrant skepticism but cyberx has been vouched for multiple times, including by Clutch. It's very clear with cyberx is posting opinion versus inside information. He does both and both are fine. But to say most of his inside information is most obvious is wrong. There are multiple incidents where he gave specific information that was not common sense that was true. (ex - he put his name on the line to state that Dwight was in LA when the GARM was in an uproar bc he was supposedly in Houston househunting and other instances when he posted info 1/2 an hour before it reached hoopshype, etc.). Even if most of his information aligns with common sense, that may be because it MAKES SENSE, and having confirmation is still a good thing. In any case he's an insider who has extra information that you or I don't. For the sake of the rest of the GARM, let's not drive him off. You don't have to hang on his every word if you don't want to but don't be a dick. Cyberx, thanks for the information you provide.
Bring what "Plow?" You're the one "bringing it" and nothing you or anybody else has hinted at has even come close to fruition. Not only that, but nothing you or any other "insider" has hinted at has even made it to any sort of reports in the media. The only place anywhere on the interweb we see this bull$hit is in this thread. You put yourself out there like this and nothing happens, you've gotta expect some blow-back.
Another insider about to be run off, Robin to join the Batman in the Batcave. Cyberx to be the last insider standing against Gotham's hordes.
Good, so then when we actually get news of something going/about to go down....it'll be when something actually goes/is about to go down.
That man do have a right to his opinion and belief correct? Why get upset with those that don't believe in these insiders.
OTOH, not a single word has been mentioned by the "insiders" with regards to what has happened all summer with deals that have actually happened. No one mentioned the Terry signing or the deals for Dorsey or Adrien or Black or Michelle. There is genuine reason to doubt the veracity of the so called insiders. And if they get upset over it, so be it. Not everyone here is going to be delusional enough to be taken for a ride all summer.
Did you swallow your toothpick?! Keep it calm over there! If the the Twolves and Rubio can't come eyeeye I would expect a flip over here (whether you like that or not). Plowman has indicated Rubio plenty and Cyborg has mentioned that Morey is watching extension-eligible players closely. Insiders can only tell us what they hear not what is actually going to happen. No one is forcing you to believe Cyborg, PlowNation, Batman etc.. but those three have all been well vindicated in most, or a large amount, of the board's eye. They are frustrated just like the rest of us that what they have heard has not come to fruition. Even more so probably but that is just the nature of the beast. This should give you a peak into how difficult it is to complete a trade in the NBA. There are going to be 10 rumors to every trade, rumors that have legs but fall short on being complete. If you would rather not read the rumors just block all the insiders, wait for the Clutchfans frontpage and leave the rest of us alone to snack on our insider scraps because it's all the fun we get to have in the off season. Don't shoot the messenger for their content. Just add to the list of things that we wish would have happened, legitimately could have happened, but never did e.g. Bosh.
So like... who is the latest favorite? Rubio...? Rubio makes about as little sense as possible on all fronts.
By my calculations, in 6 months this thread will be 100% Plowman threatening to leave or stop posting. Every post, Plowman, Plowman, Plowman "I'm going to leave I promise!!" As he spirals farther and farther out of control, it gets to to the point where Plowman starts calling out his own posts because he is the only one posting in the thread. "Plowman, how could you treat Plowman like that!?! All he or I is trying to do is post my awesome insiders information! I'm done, I'm leaving, no more insider information from me, for me, or any combination of stuff oh god I'm losing it I'M AN INSIDER! I'M AN INSIDER!!!"
Take this advice. This thread is for rumors. Most of them will not happen. Some of us want to know even if it does not happen because we find it enjoyable to know what is going on behind the scenes. In order for you to enjoy this you need to take things with a dose of reality that most rumored trades in the NBA will never happen. This creates a lot of disappointment which you can choose to deal with by stopping to check on the thread or waking up to the reality of rumors vs. trades in the NBA and learning to enjoy rumors with a grain of salt for seasoning. If you don't want to read about things that likely won't happen, there is a whole GARM for you to Hangout in and even a Hangout for you to hang out in. Different strokes for different folks just back off our parade so we can still have one.
