    yeah definitely excited for this , having Dwight on this team would benefit Lin in the same ways as when he played for the Knicks with Tyson Chandler , no offense to Omer but I go to a lot of the games and when I watch Omer inside the paint I cringe a bit because his response is quite slow at times but sometimes he's great when he can dunk the shots right away.

    Sixers drafted a PG with the 11th pick. All the teams that needed a PG have drafted one.

    LOL Shame on you that you doubt the BEARD. He just eurosteps (biblical parting of the Red sea) his way for the Layup/Dunk. :grin:

    I don't doubt his source, but as a good bearer of a legit leak. He shouldn't have garnished it with his personal opinions. Just show as it is.

    Personal opinion makes it sound less legit.

    Is it possible we having trouble trading Trob, Morey is looking for alternatives?

    We won't "dump" Lin!

    We may trade him, but we'll get good value back

    Look, we have no leverage....Everybody knows we need to shed for Dwight. He's got that contract and health issues....Jeremy also stunk it up all year.
    There is the "cash cow" aspect, but that's weighed down against the rest.

    Sixers drafted Michael Carter-Williams a PG with the 11th pick. They've gone full rebuild.

    Holiday has already been traded to the Pelicans for the Nerlen Noels pick.

    Guess everyone knows Morey's hand tough to play poker with all your cards exposed.
