On Thursday’s episode of The Woj Pod, host Adrian Wojnarowksi revealed – and George confirmed – that before the Thunder acquired George in a trade with Indiana, the Pacers offered George for guard Klay Thompson.

What is Indiana doing? I thought it was bad enough to turn down Kevin Love for Oladipo, but Klay Thompson too?

[wdoupis]

Wait a sec... that says Pacers offered George, not that GS offered Klay.

[shel311]

Yea, looks like I saw it how it was originally worded with GS making the offer, but when I went back and copy/pasted, it had already been fixed.

Tweet is gone below, but some were confused about PG conversation. Here's the deal: Golden State NEVER offered Klay Thompson in a trade

[shel311]

There are rumors about DRose possibly going to the Cavs.

I saw something funny on Twitter...if Rose signed with the Cavs then every MVP winner from 2009-2016 would be playing for either GS or CLE.

That will make cry baby Bron happy, right AJ???

for a week....till he remembers Rose's best days are 7 or 8 years ago

kinda like Deron Williams

Per Windhorst, Kyrie Irving is seeking a trade from Cleveland.

He wants a "bigger role" which is kinda funny since he's one of the more overrated players in the NBA.

[DRiccio21]

thats pretty nutty... no idea why he wouldn't have made that decision a few months ago.

i would guess he wants to be in NY or Miami. he's ALWAYS down here partying with the same dudes that Winslow parties with

[shel311]

The one thing I read...I mentioned a few days ago about how CLE was closing in on Butler, but reading around today, it was apparently Butler for Kyrie, not Love. If that is true and fell through, that may be why he wants out now.

But that being said, why if CHI offered Butler for Kyrie, CLE should have taken that offer as soon as they could have, seems like a no brainer to me. Butler is considerably better IMO.

ESPN Sources: On Kyrie Irving front, Cavs were given four preferred landing spots: New York, Miami, San Antonio, Minnesota.

I would have guessed 3 of those 4. Minnesota I didn't think of.


the rumor right now is Suns/cle/ny in 3 way deal. I originally told my buddies it wouldn't shock me to see a 3 way with Memphis for Conley. but it looks like its phx for Bledsoe that is gaining traction. makes a lot of sense and makes Cleveland much better.

Knicks offer Melo + 1sts for Kyrie

Knicks finally get Melo to Houston. Wade to Houston on the MLE.

Morey offers Dan Gilbert Harden for Lebron.

I have enjoyed everything from his thus far until I saw this.

What is worse is they interviewed the youngest son and he thought it was funny. Solid sportsmanship and values. I am afraid the youngest son is gonna have a career meltdown sooner than later as he seems MUCH different that the older bro.
