Update: 

Sad news, mega deal Indy/Atlanta/3rd team dead. 

Oladipo comp was not met and 3rd team doesn't seem as willing as they once did. 

This may explain Atlanta's willingness to trade the OKC 1st for a backup PG. 

I would too.

Which was the 3rd team.

Eww. I'd rather just sign Teague. 

Atlanta values him at close to the min and he's Coach Bud bound.

I'm fine haha. It's been a fatiguing year but I will try to be more engaged when the new season starts, and may come by again tomorrow at some point when the draft is going on.

I'm honestly not sure I watched more than about an hour or so of the restart combined but there was just sports overload then because I was watching baseball and football.

Nothing has really happened to me that's that bad (2019 was arguably worse for me and my family) but so much has happened in general for this year that it's difficult to process everything. It's like we packed a decade into one year.

Sooo...Gordon Hayward. I popped in when I saw that smoke. Is there a chance that this happens?

Glad you're doing okay.  2020 has been rough for us all.  Just wanted to make sure you were doing okay.  We are all one big crazy fam here. :).

He's joining the Bucks!? Damn! They're taking from us again.

I f'n hate Boston fans. On Twitter tryin to say they gettin Huerter, Capela, and 6 for Hayward.  Come on.

Can't. That 3rd team, I am not allowed to talk about them outside of generalities.

Why are you entertaining Boston fans on twitter of all places? I tend not to entertain even our fans on twitter. 

[neanderballer]

Rubio would be a great backup PG who can guard SGs if we want Trae to play off ball a little bit more. Shot a career high 36% from 3 last year so hopefully he keeps that up.

Just read the comments on one of the tweets about the potential trade. Mistake.

Hawks are clearly targeting vet PGs.

So no TJ McConnell?

They would have to trade Tatum to get that from Atlanta. I mean, is it really that bothersome. A top 6 pick, Capela, and Kevin. Yeah, we can add Hunter too and give us Tatum. Sounds good to me.

You did mention that Oladipo's trade value was really low:

Quote

According to a report from NBA insider Brian Windhorst, both Oladipo and Westbrook have no trade value at this point in time. “This is based on conversations from all around the league at every level. Victor Oladipo and Russell Westbrook do not have trade value.”

 

Indy might have better luck at the trade deadline if he rehabs his value.

T.J. was always an extra Atlanta was targeting but Indy was reluctant to give him up.
