    I wouldn't trade K-Pap for anyone on that team short of Zach LaVine, Ricky Rubio (even iffy on him with this injury) or Wiggins. Dieng is a great player but I still wouldn't give up Kostas PapaGeorgio for him.

    I was just saying Minny inquired about the availability of Kpap.

    During talks. That is all.

    I would trade kpap for brewer straight up, a 2015 included would make it better however.

    we all like pap for what he does, but I mean dude has had 7 games where he has had under 4 points. three 0 point games.

    brewer has same defense and can actually get you some points more consistently and get the rockets fastbreak points back up.

    plowman - at what point do you begin questioning your sauces as cybersex comes back and says he's never heard word of what you are discussing.

    while I think cybersex is given too much credence on this site, there should be no doubting that he's legitmately plugged in

    so the pattern comes about

    your insider tells you somethings happening and now

    cyberx says he's never heard anything

    your deadline passes and lo-behold there are excuses

    you append your statement based on new timely intel

    cyberx says he's never heard anything

    your deadline passes and lo-behold there are excuses

    you append your statement again based on new information

    cyberx says he's never heard anything

    wanna guess what comes next?

    To Plowmans credit, just because I don't hear of it doesn't mean it isnt being discussed etc.
    I didn't hear about the Terry trade, but it happened.

    Reality is at some point sooner rather than later some trade will go down (knowing Morey) and the fake insider circle jerk of Plowman, Drew, Jopat will cite "trade talks being fluid" and other excuses for their timeline being way off all the while stroking their e-wenis (es) claiming they did get it right eventually.

    yeah, but there's something that doesn't smell right. Let's say you hear about 35% of what's taking place - with as big as these trades are indicated to be, don't you think you would have caught a whiff from a players agent, a lackie, or even a player himself?

    Terry was a fairly small move comparably.

    IOW, the bigger the deal, the more people involved, the more opportunity for loose lips, the more probability cyberx hears it.

    For sure - the bigger the deal (more teams involved/agents involved) something usually leaks.

    thus my belief that whoever is providing information to plowman, is doing so under false pretences and he's not picking up on it.

    Shoots 3s at a high level, young, fits into the offense like a glove. McHale wanted Smith but Morey ultimately made the decision to keep Canaan.

    Well he's started a good deal of the season, and played in crunch-time that Bev was injured so it doesn't take an insider to tell you that they sort of like him at least.

    Also the guy is making less than a million un-guaranteed this year and next. Yeah they love what they are getting from him I'm sure.

    Not sure why anyone would think that the Rockets would want to move him ASAP for no damn reason at all.
