Yeah agree, we gotta stop just throwing random names that are definitely going to be untouchable at the deadline into the mix.

Yeah, the Knicks have long been a rumored destination for Jackson. They can have him as far as I'm concerned. I'd rather stand pat than waste any assets on Jackson. Dragic, Lawson, or Thomas. I don't think there's anyone else worth getting who's available(which is why I omitted Knight who I can't see being dealt).
I don't know...maybe? I keep track on Reggie on purpose because he is the other young pg that will be RFA this summer. Ny have him as their second target for pg behind Dragic while LA prefers Knight. I prefer if they invest all their money to try to get Dragic :grin: while we quietly and fast go on and sign our FA.
Def not arguing with him, but I just find this situation so interesting. I don't know if we really know the whole case though regarding Bledsoe. I think they do actually want to move ONE of them, but they just don't want to move them now cause there really isn't what they truly want available. This Summer the goal was obvious to flip one of them for a Kevin Love type, and sign IT preemptively to be the new backup. I personally think Bledsoe was resigned as an asset first, and player second. Maybe he'd be the player first later on if Goran was the asset that net them the star big man they covet. I think they were fine either way honestly. The problem now is Goran has the potential to bend them over a barrel by forcing a trade when they don't have that star big man available to trade for first. Their time to maximize his trade value was this Summer. I personally think they will trade whichever one they think will get them a better chance at that star big man to pair with their "star" PG... whichever one they keep. However their dream of a star big man might not ever come true. So the time has come for Goran to now bend them over said barrel. They could do right by Goran by trading Bledsoe IF they really do think he's the better player. Not sure what their contingency plan is now that they are being put in a corner at the worst possible time (potential playoff birth for first time in awhile).
Doc could also be referring to Avery Bradley? Cold and Stormy in Boston. I still think Deron Williams is a big possibility.
The actual storm of the year is the snow storm that has clobbered Boston, but I don't think that makes sense as the answer to his riddle.
I don't think Reggie is a good fit in Houston mainly because of his poor 3pt shooting. If he is involved in any Rockets trade, perhaps it is a 3 way with Reggie going to some other team.
Knight is not untouchable. Rubio is though. Lawson Dragic aren't untouchable either. You just have to make an offer the other party can't refuse. Untouchable imo are only franchice caliber players.
Sounds like BRANDON KNIGHT. Steal your cold = Cold in Milwaukee. Also Brandon balled in Florida so going from Florida to Michigan/Wisonsin..must be too cold. Misdirection = It won't be dragic. "So Cold in the D" = Brandon Knight played for the Pistons. coach is a media maniac = jason kidd & how he went from nets to bucks brothers coming home / homecoming = brandon knight born in miami, played college in florida, gulf coast brothers. played at kentucky with Terrence Jones also misplaced pieces...knight was swapped with jennings right? he's been bounced around. Trying to decode. Thanks to DocRocket, codman, and cyberx. It's going to be a loooooong 2 days.
hmmm. You're a Bucks fan right? Surprised to hear you say he's not untouchable consider his big role in their success so far this season. I'm doubting we could put together a package that the Bucks would agree to that would be stable for the Rockets, but what do I know? What do you think would get it done?
oh I see. Thanx. That makes more sense. Hope everyone is allright over there. I thought because Mil won double the games it won the whole last year, before the ASG already, you know...take by storm. But maybe it's the Thunder after all because Celtics dont' make much sense.
I skimmed cause I'm at work, but it seems there is nothing new here. Do we know when the meeting is or if they met already?
Look, Dragic is 28, almost 29 if he wants a chance to win a championship, Phoenix would be the last team on the list, plain and simple Phoenix has no chance, now or in summer, they need to trade him
