He's been here since 1999. He's not going to get banned. The other people were banned because they had just signed up and were posting made-up stuff and saying they were insiders. If Plowman had just signed up and was posting the stuff he has been posting, he may very well have been banned.
Ok. What is this standing offer Morey offer for Goran Dragic? You are obviously privy to such details...what are the details? The the Suns FO Ryan McDonough & Lon Babby have been carefully positioning the Suns for 18 months. They've assembled a lot of assets. Nothing amazing, but a large cast of young...some very young talent, some good draft picks and getting players under good contracts. The young players are starting to put it together in degrees, and it's hard to imagine any more "prospects" anytime soon. Goran Dragic at only 28 is the veteran quasi-leader of the team. He is now, and will be in his prime for the next several years. Every indication is that the Suns want to keep him for the long haul. Goran has indicated he wants to stay, but understandably he will test free agency. It seems so unlikely but if the Suns were to trade Dragic before the deadline, they would not want draft picks and/or prospects...role players. They'd need a star or near star to justify moving the current face of the franchise. Again. What is the Houston offer in detail? I'll also say this- Just because there is a trade offer for a player, it doesn't make a deal that much more possible. There are probably 20 "offers" from 20 teams for Dragic that are "standing"...as for one hundred other desirable players. GMs talk to GMs virtually 24/7...make offers. It's their job. What is Houston offering that makes sense (at least to Morey) for the Suns to give up Dragic? Here's the Suns current roster make up/near picks. Make this Houston offer make BBALL sense based on what's below- CG Bledsoe- 24 CG Dragic- 28 SG Green- 28 CG Thomas- 25 PG Ennis- 20 SG Goodwin- 20 G/F Z.Dragic- 25 G/F Bogdanovic- 22 (Europe) F Tucker- 29 F TJ Warren- 21 F Mook Morris- 25 PF Keef Morris- 25 F Tolliver- 29 C Len- 21 (Soon to be starting. He's looking like a #5 pick now) C Plumlee- 26 (will be solid back-up soon) C Randolph- 30 '15 picks- Own, MIN 13-30, LAL 6-30/Own 2nd '16 picks- Own, MIN 13-30, LAL 4-30/Own 2nd, MIN 2nd if #1 not conveyed
Cyber, Any idea if there is truth behind a rumor they Dwight and mchail got into a "fight" prior to the first game he missed, in which mchail apparently told Howard he was the coach and Howard needed to do as he said? Heard it from a very reliable source, but I don't want to name him because I don't know how many people he told, could have been just a slip of the tongue. Btw not making this up, I legitimately heard this from a person who is well known. Personally, I find it hard to believe they could have had a fight this significant, but thought I'd see it you heard anything similar...
WTF? What's this crap? Starting this type of crap rumor should be cause for ban unless it can be substantiated.
Clutch would ban him if he was flat out lying. My point is why do you guys have to post your point over and over. We get it you don't believe him........ So....
Not starting a rumor stupid, asking if he had heard of anything similar. I didn't make this up. Don't be such a little biatch, don't like something? Ignore it. I can't substantiate a quote dip ****. You want me to get him on video saying it? Ever heard of protecting sources? Jesus Christ after all the sb thrown around in this thread and yore crying over a guy asking if there is any truth to something heard.
I just dont get the point of decrying Plow and the others. If they're wrong, they're wrong, whatever. You don't have to believe or listen (or even open the thread!). The only harm done here is self-inflicted by those who choose to believe or entertain the rumors. I choose to read the thread because it's fun. Even if it's not ultimately true, or if it IS true and Plow et al are just lucky, I won't be butthurt about it. Bottom line, if you don't want to "fake" insider info, ignore it.
Even if that were true I don't see it as that big of a deal. Whole lot of passion involved in this game.
I've actually heard things before from someone close to the team (not concerning Dwight though) but decided not to post cause I dont wanna hear the BS on this board. I know T. jones seen a specialist before his injury as know to be serious at all.
This. It's not millsap or west. Plow said "still" so he's referring to his original point guards. That third one could be Bledsoe too though, that's the 4 that were originally mentioned.
Agreed. I can't believe how many people call for blood when a rumor does not come true within 28 seconds of someone posting it. I can only assume that NBA front offices are buzzing with activity. Some folks will hear nuggets and share here, but why would they when you have all these people calling for their balls in a blender and giving them a straw. I don't guest it.
Can you guys imagine how good we'd be if that rumored trade of Jeff Teague to Houston for Bev and Pelicans' 1st round pick went down? I love Bev to death, but Teague is a way better overall player than him.
Clutch doesn't know if he's flat-out lying. And I don't even know what exactly can get someone banned as far as rumors are concerned. The others were obvious trolls. Plowman obviously has more leeway due to being around for so long.
Dude. Why are you still in this thread ?! If you object to what he's posting, tell a moderator. Oh, they didn't reprimand him ? Then block him. You've said "I don't believe Plowman" about 100 different ways. We get it. Good Lord, get a life.
Let's be honest, Teague is a horrible defender - and an inferior 3pt shooter to Beverley. (Teague is an awful .341 over his 6 year career - Beverley is at .376 - up over .400 this season so far) I don't know if it would have made us that much better? Beverley is a better rebounder by far, which is really one of the areas we are hurting with Dwight and Jones out. For sure Teague is a better scorer, but not convinced a better overall player, and certainly not a better fit here RIGHT NOW.
