    couldnt disagree more... why tip your hand? If ur blowing it up and rebuilding why would u tell people u r having a fire sale and bring doen the perceived value of your pieces?

    Well they just went public so they agreed with me...

    Basically we aren’t trading anyone else unless you offer everything. So yea they tipped their hand.

    or maybe Tilly is planning on jettisoning players - but wants to try to maintain their value for top dollar...

    If ur keeping everybody - is Roco really the guy yer gonna deal?

    game inside of the game... chess not checkers... lol

    Not sure why people ******** on this signing. NBL has really improved in recent times and probably closer to NBA style of play compared to Europe. He put up decent stats, similar ppg to Ball who could be the number 1 pick.

    I don’t think we are keeping everyone.
    Harden maybe. Russ no unless there is no offer. Eric? Same. PJ depends on Harden.

    They said enough for me. They are open to blowing it all up for the right package. They are weighing options and not rushing into anything.

    Stone > Morey.

    He would never let Tilman bully him like that Broadway Star let him. Tilman bullied Morey all the way to the Liberty bell so he could train with Rocky to exact his revenge.

    i meant Harden or Russ mistyped and absolutely not. I think it’s 100% we make another trade between now and The draft.

    re-tool aroundHarden or rebuild around Ben Simmons? That I don’t know. Trading for Wall signifies a retool.

    then they havent really tipped their hand have they... could do this - could do that... saying all the right things to not hurt perceived values...

    Jury is still out on Stone... we'll see...

    I havent fully absorbed the Morey departure yet... Did Morey mastermind his way out of town bc he wanted it? Did Tilman push him out - delayed reaction to China to save face? Was it just a cost cutting move by Tilly - and DM was cool bc he knew he could make more elsewhere? If Morey was leaving 'to spend time with his fam' - how was their not a noncompete clause in Moreys separation paperwork - for at least a year or 2 - if yer letting him out of his contract? ...still a lot of questions there... time will tell...

    and i dont trust a damn word that comes outta Tilmans mouth - regardless of who's saying it...

    lol

    imo...

    If Russ wants out - and his departure doesnt matter to Harden... then hes as good as gone - just trying to get the max return...

    If Russ wants out - and his departure means Harden wants out... then you're gonna try to keep Harden happy - but if Hardens gonna ultimately want out - then u gotta try to coordinate 2 major trades...

    If WB and Harden are happy - then u run back it...

    I'd say its more about the desires of the players than whatever Tilly's plans are... unless of course, he decided "screw u guys - i'm blowin it up - dont let the door hit ya.." lol

    Tilman needs those steam machines on the top of the back boards for the Toyota Center. Maybe that will excite the fans.

    I think it's pretty obvious what they are doing .... Trading Covington for picks tells you all you need to know.

    Its rumored PJ is on the trade block along with Harden & Westbrook.

    I hear good things about him, but if we're trading harden I don't see the point of adding a low-ish upside role player instead of signing an undrafted rookie 5 years younger.
