Rumor to pass along.  Hawks are working the phones to pass along Harkless + trade exception from Huerter deal for a higher priced salary. This would keep them at 13 players. They are working

The percentage is so low that its not worth bragging about or even commenting on.

And with this needless personal insult you are on the ignore list where you will never be taken off. Good bye.

I gave this more thought and PHX comes across looking even dumber by matching.

If there was any scenario where you'd pay him max, why let it get to this point?  You basically alienated the guy by making him sit a year when all you were gonna do was pay him anyways. 

matching offer sheet is a significantly smaller contract than resigning him with a birds right max. I think ayton could've gotten 5/177 + all-nba provision that trae got.

Missing something in that reasoning.... could only have gotten that from PHX... so, I'm unable to make sense of the assertion. That was never going to happen.

We made our big trade of the off season. We arent going to break up the band. 

Huerter... hurt.

He may have been the bass player in the band, but by most accounts, he won us a post season game w/o much help. The two 22-23 assets we got are guys who aren't especially better than talents we could've picked up in free agency for about the same if not less, especially when you figure-in Harkless' recent injury history.

And there are still a couple of things out there that almost surely will see some resolution... ie, significant players moving... in the next days or weeks, and the GM explicitly said (paraphrasing) that they're still open for business if an opportunity arises. I'm not fully exhaling just yet.

If you say Turner is more valuable than Collins, I may have to end our online friendship...😁

Well you don't have to worry about that because I am at war with idiot Hawk fans about Myles Turner. Hell yeah, JC is way more valuable than Turner. Hell yeah, he's FAR more valuable.

It was essentially a salary dump. But that's how it goes. Tough to keep everyone if you want to stay under the tax.

Am I wrong I'm thinking, if PHX loses the former #1 pick for nothing, that's some dumbarsery.  They knew they didn't want to pay him.  Trade him for something before now.  Now you're stuck between a rock and a hard place with it. 

You gotta match it then trade him after the new year. Although it wastes their season basically.

Ironic.

You are the one who asked why posters didn't acknowledge your greatness...I just answered your question.

We've all made posts here and there declaring we were right about anything that happened. Why is it so wrong for Soth to say he was right?

It was the way he said it.  It wasn't just I was right about something but posters need to acknowledge it.

As I reported here first a few days ago...we lost him to the Pacers. The real interesting thing is this is not a S&T. Phx either matches it and pays a guy they don't want a crap ton of money or they lose the former #1 pick for nothing.

 

I'm just going to post what he actually said and not get into a debate on what you feel he said. You're reaching on this one. Soth never said anyone needed to acknowledge his post. Just that he was right and said it a few days before it happened.

You missed this post

With respect, I don't keep up with everyone. I know when I first heard about it, I waited to hear from our insiders if they had heard it then I talked about it here. I'm just tired of people doubting the things we share with people on here and when one of those things literally happens no one says oh hey, those guys were right after all.
