    The entire concept of this thread is stupid. There is no such thing as "insider info" on these message board full of obsessive fans. Yes I'm very well aware that refers to us also.

    That would be stupid also. And no I don't think Stone is willing to give up Green for Bridges or Brown.

    The only way Stone gives up Green if someone like Luka is available and we can package Green with Sengun or all of our first round picks from the Nets.

    Or someone like LaMelo where it's Green and KMJ or a first.

    The Boss @Clutch himself disagrees with you. He has confirmed several insiders as legit in the past. In addition to these examples, it is obvious that @ch44 and formerly @DocRocket/@oeilpere and @Nook are legit as well, to name a few.

    Multiple sources have often been wrong as well!! Just saying.... ;)

    Like I stated in my post "Not sure if this "NBASupes" guy/girl is legit or not" , but a player being shopped is not uncommon in the NBA! Any player can be traded in the NBA, that includes Sengun,Bari, and Tari! There was a plethora of players being mentioned in that post and you only zoomed in on the Green part... relax bro, right or wrong it's not that serious!!

    Go Rockets!!!

    I can't see the team giving up on Green this early.

    Too much talent and real improvement down the stretch attacking the rim.

    Feels like Sengun would be the one that would be dangled first if they were to acquire Wembyana.

    Man other people's insiders suck compared to ours. There's absolutely nothing reported here that hasn't been mentioned as a rumor on realgm boards. An insider tells you things the media doesn't know yet. All of these players have been speculated to be available if things don't go well for them.

    That might be true, but some people have less time to peruse other websites and when something is presented in a conscise form it's greatly appreciated! Rumors are exactly that rumors, you always take them whith a shovel of salt, but every so often rumors become reality! I'm not vouching for the Hawks poster, nor do I vouch for any insider on this board... but I do enjoy reading their posts!!

    Go Rockets!!!

    Am I not entitled to my opinion that your opinion is stupid?

    As much as KPJ is frustrating, analytically our starting backcourt was the least of our problems.

    The guy we started at SG was one of our biggest problems though... would be nice if we could upgrade the position.

    I agree - but I do know one thing… Tilman is demanding/almost guaranteeing a splash - the one thing that bothers him most is being irrelevant.. his rockets have been irrelevant for 3 years and now he’s pushing for a splash…

    Hopefully it’s not a Westbrook like splash. Harden will likely be the splash with a trade shakeup as a side dish. I just hope it’s not a stupid ass trade lol.

    Brunson? Brunson is a league above Powell who is right now half a league above Gordon who is slightly above Covington.

    Brunson and Randle are Knickerbockers' best players, does not make sense to trade him right now.

    Is there another Brunson I was unaware of?

    While I appreciate the pick-up and the post I do want to mention that based on my empirical analysis of this guy’s track record he is more likely to be a fraud than a sauce. A frauce.

    Jalen is not being shopped. This guy is a dunce who is trying to piggyback off Jake Fischer who wrote Jalen was mentioned by name, which was actually just a brief aside with a candidate (probably Vogel) in his interview as an avenue they could potentially take to improve down the road if things don’t go as planned.

    Once I went out to a show to catch some bands and ending up meeting Colin Pine while he was still Yao's translator. I had a whole conversation with him and when I got home I posted about it. SOOOOO MANY people accused me of being full of it and making it all up. And I had just met Colin Pine. I didn't claim I was rolling through River Oaks with Stevie and Cuttino in a hummer limo full of strippers. I met Colin Pine.

    edit* I just found that thread and nobody at all "bashed" me. One guy suggested I could have been more discreet and not mentioned Colin by name. lol. I guess I totally misremembered that or was a little too sensitive to that criticism at the time. However, the guy I am about to speak of posted in that thread and specifically talked about how he doesn't share anything here because he gets bashed a lot.

    There was also a period in which I would hear things from a guy I knew who worked for John Lucas (before he was working with the Rockets again). That guy posted here but quit telling the board what he was hearing because he was attacked so much. I didn't bother telling people about that stuff either because I mean if the board doesn't believe I talked to Colin Pine then I can't even begin to tell you guys that I heard it from a guy who works for a guy who used to work for the Rockets.

    It's weird to me how insecure some of you guys are. Some people do have contacts. And it's okay if you don't. (I don't either anymore)

    Yup literally every single "rumor" and proposal of Green being traded in other media sites and team fan sites is solely based on that one claim by Fischer. Like there aren't even "multiple reports". It's literally one guy mentioning it and every team fan page doing their usual thing of concocting stupid hypothetical trade packages that never will happen just like this message board.
