    lol

    I was under the impression that Denver was very locked in into keeping Faried and wants him to sign an extension soon. Maybe they got the word he ain't resigning and will become an unrestricted after this next year.

    I'm thrilled at McHale possibly on the hot seat.

    I'm not so thrilled at the Bledsoe and the competition of teams trying to get him. Slim Thug needs to do some personal recruitment.

    Also, I have a tough time seeing how Faried satisfies the 4 position.

    It's very true that he wouldn't stretch the floor. His defense would be an upgrade, and I could see him cutting to the basket to try and posterize whoever is there.

    Yeah I seen Faried hurt us a few times. He is a high motor player that will fit in nice in a high octane spread offense. His defense is good and would improve with Howard and Ariza and Beverley playing with. I seen him take the ball in and score convincingly on Howard. He is a beast but he does not stretch the floor fully but does demand defensive attention when he has the ball. He would fit good next to Howard.

    So..

    Plowman
    KingDrew
    Cyberx

    Are all on the same page, Drew and Plow said upgrade at PG, Drew said on of Phx guards, Plow said Dragic or Bledsoe, Cyber is saying Bledsoe. Plowman and KinDrew are now officially legitimized.

    Basketballholic also said this
    http://bbs.clutchcity.net/showpost.php?p=9181633&postcount=6575

    Cyber has said we are very interested in Faried, Basketballholic mentioned a 3 way between Denver, Phoenix and Houston... so take that for what it's worth.

    No he said that Morey would not go for more than a two year contract for Bledsoe and Bledsoe is cool to the idea. There is competition also. That means we have little chance of getting Bledsoe.

    Morey loves Faried though and Faried may be available.

    Stay tuned.

    Although I'm behind them, I don't think cyberx confirmed anything they said. Forget every thing they said and we'd probably still hear about Morey looking into Bledsoe. It's what he does and now that Bledoe has been made available, everyone could guess Morey would be testing the waters.

    Morey performing due diligence. Can't blame him for trying.

    Something fell through, it happens, he was still the very first one to publicly come out and say that we are going hard after an upgrade at PG, then said one of phx guards. KingDrew is official in my book.

    Cyberx confirmed we are looking for an upgrade at PG, we are engaged with Phx for Bledsoe, 2 things both Plowman and Drew said.

    Drew and Plowman have been saying for a long time that we where going to upgrade our PG position and go after Dragic or Bledsoe, quite a bit before things got so tense with Bledsoe and the Suns, before anybody said a word about Bledsoe to Houston. To say both Plowman, Drew just decided to hop out and publicly guess this whole time would be a pretty big stretch.

    Chris Sheridan tweeted yesterday about the Rockets and a sign and trade possibility for Bledsoe. Rockets better do some due diligence to make sure Bledsoe's off the court activities are clean enough to make it long term in this league.

    Using logic isn't that hard. If a team was stacked with great PF's and we needed one, logic would say we'd look into trying to go one of those PF's. I dont need a source or insider to provide what is logical.

    That's from the Dream Shake site. Their writer uploaded it to Fanside and that's where Sheridan picked it up from. In other words, it started locally and the idea likely came from this board.
