    When did he start to pretend he is an insider? I don't remember him doing that under the jopatmc name.

    They made an article and said what happened. It might have not been the whole team but maybe partial. One of the scrub player said what meeting but deleted it later. Why would the other players confirm there was a meeting

    Early Morning ish:

    Late night text from an ear that I trust (60%) on my Black Book.

    Anyway, Morey IS doing a last minute effort to squeeze Jimmy out of Minny. This comes from the alliance with James. This ear said Morey is known as the league's "Cleaner" and the analogy was our legend, JSmoove. Josh waas unahppy with Stan, Detroit and that log-jam. He got out. Morey knew the value and CLEANED it all up...easily.

    Now, i am not attempting false hope for those of you who want Jimmy, but I'm sharing that Morey is playing chess (the usual) and coming in to clean up the mess.

    It's still a 3-team scenario, unless Minny settles for much less. Ear says the idea is to KEEP Ego, knowing Jimmy is a rental, but to use the third team to help with some picks, a quality player not from here, and cash.

    Ant and Jimmy (if traded) will be packaged by contracts. (We should go after Ant)

    LAC:Tobias is on the table
    Gallo is on the table
    AND: Bev is on the table
    That's why LAC is still playing in this mess.

    Miami:
    Hassan is on the table
    WinSLOW is on the table (also, doesn't address out need.)
    Goran is on the table
    JJ is on the table
    Josh...nope. Hardball.

    Sac: Everyone is available: But the Kings want Wiggs

    Brooklyn is also offering LOTS.

    I *still* don't think we're taking Jimmy based on how the roster looks, but I'm just giving you what an update from last night.

    Tuck is not on the table (today) and I said that from jump.
    The only reason EGo might be on the table is money, but Morey is a FAN.
    Also, Ennis is an MDA favorite FYI.

    James is in contact with his bud.

    EDIT: I head about the practice. It's true, EXCEPT, Jimmy was not as VULGAR as reported. He challenged everyone though, including the org. Kat may look like a victim, but this is "story time" stuff: He instigates a great deal. He's not the guy you think he is. He's passive aggressive according to a good bench guy there a speak with off and on. Wigs dapped Jimmy (true) because he is ON THE SAME LEVEL: He wants out.

    Double Edit: I'm not Cyber, I don't have huge ears in MinnyLosa, so please, don;'t blow me up with "F Codman, We didn't get Jim." Jimmy has his prefs, Houston wasn't on the first list.


    My hope: I want Ant and Tyus.

    Happy Sat.

    Idk how you land Butler without giving up Gordon much less not Gordon or Tucker. Glad Morey is still pressing the issue though.

    Totally understand, but Morey has brought in Beverly Hills and send out Compton.

    Damn I thought it was Anthony Davis. I saw his interview with Rachel Nichols yesterday and he pretty much said it outright that he's going to bolt as soon as he can.

    If Sacramento wants Wiggins then why don't they get him? Minny should be over the moon that they found a taker for him with that contract.

    So you're saying Morey could be trying to build the following team:

    PG: Paul/Knight
    SG: Harden/Gordon/Green
    SF: Butler/Ennis/Carter-Williams
    PF: Tucker/Anthony/Clark
    C: Capela/Nene/Hartenstein

    I’d imagine we’d have to package Knight and Chriss at least for salary but that team would be unstoppable

    So we may bring in LAC as the 3-way, but if they're giving up resources are they getting Wiggins? This sounds like Minny could be blowing itself up to get rid of the malcontents and bring in a fresh group to build around KAT.

    A bench mob of Gordon, Ennis, Melo, Clark, Green and the new and improved MDA MCW would be the best in the league.
