    They should make him read Infinite Jest as an introduction to what happens if you don't go clean in Boston.

    He's more of a football guy.

    He has no reason to lie here though.

    For me Siakam isn't even better right now, but aside for that, Brown is a two way big guard/wing that just turned 24 and still has upside, Siakam is about to turn 27 in four months and most likely already peaked, for me it's an easy choice.

    I can understand if someone wants Siakam cause they think he fits better with the current roster, that wouldn't be wrong, but it's wrong to think about adding to this current roster in order to compete in the first place imo.

    Everyone's an insider. Everyone listing different teams. No one actually knows.

    I would seriously consider SIakam and OG. But why would Toronto do it? They aren't contenders in that trade. Unless they have some other move they plan to make?

    He's pretty credible. Will it happen? I'm not sure.

    It's more about OG being added for me.

    OG has upside where he could be a serious player.

    You're looking at potentially two All Stars for one MVP.

    That's a good outcome.

    We wouldn't get OG and Siakam though, we would get Powell most likely along with either player. That gives them Lowry, VanVleet, Harden, OG / Siakam & Baynes. That's definitely top 3 in the East.

    oh absolutely. Things are so fluid and always change but I just wanted to know if this is a guy who just throws **** out there or is not credible or has be known to be not trustworthy.

    all fan bases have guys who we know if they say it, there’s zero truth to it or they’ve been given terrible intel

    No OG then no deal

    We can throw in tucker for OG if need be that’s and easy decision.

    John Granato does ESPN radio in Houston. He's not trolling.

    Now, I could get behind Brown + .....

    He's showing out with upside.

    Boston has assets.

    Forget about Toronto & Siakum.

    Still want Ben, but it was always Boston that had the most to deal.

    Siakam 27 in April brown just turned 24. I’d say pascal is closer to his ceiling than brown. It’s very close. All subjective. I’d take smart over Powell and og tho. 1st team defense, heart grit and underrated playmaking.

    Harden isn’t expiring though and they’d have to send out picks to get Harden. So what’s the point?
