Man these accounts just quote anything from anyone and put it out there lol

@thunderc ?

Why?

Only way this makes sense is if he's willing to come back on a lower yearly salary or they needed to remove his salary/hold for another deal in the works.

He's a very tradeable asset.

I guess the Thunder decided to get this done now, but it could backfire

....gives you a lot of options to improve your roster.

What do you think about a guy like Dort?

I'm so confused as to why the Thunder declined his option.

I would assume he has a new deal already in place. And he because of the option being declined, Dort becomes an RFA. So he can't pull a Carlos Boozer and screw them after the fact, lol.

Ok.

I thought he'd be UFA.

They got the Gallo-Murray trade right days ago. They gather intel from a lot of sources. Other than the experts, this is the best account. In the end…it’s all rumors other than a couple key experts

Fighting wanted Dort.

Sam Cassell is directing all of Harden’s work outs this summer. He’s the dude that unlocked Maxey. So glad he didn’t get the Utah job.

Becuase he’ll be an rfa at a time with few teams having actual cap space

This kid has zero leverage now anyway. So he either takes security now or bets on himself during a more cap space time next summer…which was the plan already

Limited risk move by okc

 

[fightinfunbags]

Hahaha...

I just asked you about Dort above.

Fucking love him! My consolation prize is my former student Derrick Jones Jr. Sucks when he went to Western conference cause I only got tickets once a year. If he comes to town, I may catch a chance to drink Shirley Temples with Embiid haha.

They fixing to blow it up in Utah...

 

[fightinfunbags]

If Im the Sixers I run far from Harden while they can

They’d still be capped out once they sign Tucker. It doesn’t make sense.

I’m guessing they basically have a deal in place.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Agreed. You can’t trade him for Kyrie when the plan is to float a sign and trade with Lowry for Brunson.

Morey better pick up the phone.

 

[thunderc]

Morey better pick up the phone.

I would be shocked if someone doesn’t

Masai can bring him home

 

[fightinfunbags]

Masai can bring him home

Dort isn’t a 6’8’’ wing so he has no place on a Masai roster.

Good point

Siakam, O.G., Dort and Scottie....

That's just pure greed.
