Cunningham cheap?
Lol at how the trade died
Cunningham cheap?
Memphis trying to pull a fast one on PHX
Don’t blame them for trying tbh. Sarver is such a dumbass he might’ve gone through with it before James Jones could intervene
I always hope the spurs make a trade, never happens we’re gonna ride or die with this team lol
"Memphis and Phoenix finally talked." What in sam is this? Were they just faxing notes to each other? And lulz to be MarShon Brooks. You're the bad Brooks, bro.
Saw a tweet that this deal was brokered by Washington. Memphis and the Suns never dealt or talked to each other. Miscommunication came from the Wizards.
Wizards put together this deal basically separately with each oh the other teams involved, then prematurely leaked it b4 everyone was on the same page.
??
I remember Jabari in the summer tweeting "Spurs fans about to be spoiled”, next day kawhi demands a trade
Jabari should have left to Toronto dudes reporting never makes sense
Gay >>>>>>>>>>> Ariza. At this point
Subsequent tweets have come out to suggest that even after the two teams talked, the Suns still believed it was Dillion coming back. Memphis only tried to work Marshon into this at the last minute.
Think he's saying that Sarver hates both teams equally but that PATFO wanted Ariza. Not too surprising. Wonder if they would want Oubre but can't get in the deal because Phoenix won't allow it. That would be legit ed up.
Never made sense for Ariza to Suns what a dumbass
From my perception the deal was brokered by Wash and leaked without Memphis and Suns talking, they did after to see if the trade could be salvaged but Memphis never meant to trade Dillon Brooks. I don’t think he was ever offered. They are high on him and he’s restricted until 2021 or something. Suns got greedy.
So no chance of ariza for us, hope Houston doesn’t get him.
Can’t put too much stock on Jabari speculation specially as it concerns GM and management. When he’s had sources they usually come from player’s camp. That’s his angle.
LOL @ Dillon Brooks’ tweet: GoGrizz ��
Tweets suggested that Washington is really the third team in all this, and that Dillion was already being discussed between Memphis and Phoenix. Doesn't seem like there was legit confusion. Memphis just seems to be lying, because there's no way they could have thought they were offering a fair deal for Oubre with Marshon in there.
Oubre for Forbes works salary wise
Whether there’s other trades not involving Washington discussed between the Suns and Grizzlies teams, who knows, but as to this particular trade, I am going by Woj. He was very clear this deal was brokered by Washington and Suns and Memphis only talked to each other after. Washington was/is still looking for a team to help facilitate it and I do think Grizzlies got opportunistic with getting themselves into this trade to take advantage of the situation, but they never intended to trade Dillon in that particular deal. It just wasn’t worth it for them.
Then of course the Suns and Washington are going to spin things differently. Suns were getting the better part of that deal getting 1 backup PG, a good prospect wing in team control 2 other seasons and 2 picks for a half a year of Trevor Ariza. It wouldn’t surprise if this leak came from the Suns.
Suns might just as much have wanted to pull a fast one on the Grizzlies. Think about it. Think it was totally right for Grizzlies to pull out bc they had interest in Oubre but not that badly.
Wouldn't do it. Forbes is signed for another year for dirt cheap while Oubre turns into a restricted free agent over the summer.
Oubre, Lonnie, and Murray would be an Instagram dream team though
