Morey categorically denied this on TheVerticlal Trade Deadline Show just a few minutes ago. The question posed wasn't about Shump...they asked about all the reported interest in Bev ... he said, yeah he got a lot of calls, but "Teams falsely thought he was more available after the Lou Williams trade." So while they would trade him in a big deal, Morey turned down a lot of calls this week....lot of offers.
holic being embarrassed again about his made up news ... which really are just his hopes as a fan. He just wants Bev traded, but it doesn't make him special to post as just a fan, so he says he's aligned with management. And then Haymitch on this
Guys, hate to break it to you. The Rockets shopped Bev hard going back to last summer. They would have traded him in the right deal. They even offered him up.....TODAY......in a possible deal. And they will probably try to trade him again this summer in the right deal. I swear talking to some of you is like attempting to communicate with my teenage daughters. They hear what they want to hear and they juxtapose and misinterpret as is convenient for them. That's what you do. Just because Bev is our "heart and soul" doesn't mean we would never trade him or try to trade him. This is a business, kiddos. We traded Battier when he was our heart and soul. We let Hayes walk when he was our heart and soul. We traded away Francis and Mobley when they were our heart and soul. We traded Otis Thorpe when he was our heart and soul. Ainge traded away Pierce for crying out loud. Gimmeabreak. This is my last post in this sorry thread. Here's my final words to you here. We shopped Bev all summer and on into the season very hard. We offered him up in trade TODAY! Deal wid it.
Ah crap. Didn't want to believe it but this may be confirmation that holic and Bobbythegreat are one in the same.
Entertaining a Paul George trade or Butler trade is not shopping Bev hard. Your claim that we are shopping Bev hard just got thoroughly debunked on a live broadcast by TheVerticle and Morey....embarrassingly, same day you shat out the bs.. Deal with it. And trying to weasle out of it by essentially saying everyone is tradeable just makes you look worse. Owning being wrong is the better approach than doubling down.
By _holic's standards, we are all insiders. I'll go ahead and give you all a heads up right now, my salsas tell me that Harden is untouchable this summer and all other players are available at the right price. In fact, they will all be shopped so hard it's going to hurt all of you.
Hate to break it to yall but morey would trade bev for stars like butler or george but wouldnt for sukheads like shumphert. Im an insider
This is not insight. This is literally just common sense for every player in the NBA, but it's clear that the "right deal" was nowhere to be found.
Lol you just making **** up left and right. It doesn't take a genius IQ or any insider status to say Bev will be available "for the right deal", all players are available in the right deal duh? That does not mean someone is being shopped hard wtf. This is just your cop out for being debunked by Morey on tv. This is what you get for being a knowitall SOB when you don't have insider access or any clue to what is happening behind the scenes. Next time don't be so arrogant when you post and maybe you don't end up with egg on your face.
