    Even when Houston is SPECIFICALLY referenced he doesn't respond and talk about us?

    If it's happening during the draft, it make me think PG is traded to LA. I'm sure Morey is sniffing around for a pick to package with Gordon, but maybe nobody is biting.

    Pacers waitig for the best offer, the offer that beats 27+28+Randle.

    Maybe Rockets need to acquire a pick before they can make their best offer.

    I really think the key here is Chicago. Right pick range for Beverley, they have the Gibson TPE and Rondo's only partially guaranteed deal good to dump some other salary for a follow up move in free agency.

    Detroit and denver seem more realistic fit wise but i agree the range might seem a little too high for bev where the bulls is perfect.
    Bev i think gets the 15-20 not the 10-14 slots when you value you in contract and stability(another 2 years).
    But even if we do aquire the 13th pick is that enough to add to EG to beat any offer assuming we already have a 2018 first rounder in the offer?

    Spurs probably try to use LMA to get a high pick and use that as basis of PG trade. Would piss me off to lose PG to the Spurs.

    Less concerned about Portland because not sure PG stays there long term.

    Steve Kyler, hunh? Don't know if he's ever really broken any real stories, but my memory isn't what it used to be. o_O

    This is the same idiot that picked Chris Paul over Harden for the All-Star team last year.

    I honestly don't think the guy is legit. Just throwing it out there since we're on the topic of PG.

    I wonder if we could be able to make a 3 way deal with Detroit and SacTown like:

    Houston gets: 10th pick + Stanley Johnson + Afflalo (NG if released before tommorrow)

    Detroit gets: Anderson + Beverley + 34th pick via Sacramento

    SacTown gets: Harris + Jackson + fillers via Houston


    Or send Stanley to SacTown and the 34th pick to Houston

    EDIT: or maybe just deal with SacTown lol
