Re: Team Rumor Thread

"Several media outlets bombarded Warriors star Stephen Curry with questions surrounding trade rumors flying out of the Golden State front office after the 1pt victory over the Clippers Thursday night. Confused, bewildered, shocked are just a few words to describe Curry's reaction. "

"Wait...you guys are serious ? Look, we're hot right now, we've won 16 games already and have the 3rd best record in the league. I don't know if this is some sort of plot to throw me off my game or what, but I highly doubt it's happening. Coach Jackson, Mitch, no one has talked to me about this so I got no idea where this is coming from. It's not gonna happen. You see the numbers me & Klay are putting up right now ? We're hands down the best 1-2 punch from deep, we lead the league in 3s, why would they want to split us up ? It's not gonna happen, I'm a Warriors through and through."

"Curry makes a point but we can't just ignore the rumors. Word has it the team has talked with at least five other organizations regarding Steph. We are hearing a ton of scenarios right now and while some sound farfetched, there are a few that sound pretty reasonable. From our understanding the team is weighing their options, but have yet to be blown away, which is perhaps why we haven't heard anything official yet. Either way it's something we can't ignore as this could easily send shockwaves throughout the entire league."

Rumor out of Orlando is that the Magic are actively shopping their 1st round this selection, sure to be a lottery pick. Sources indicate they Magic are looking to package that pick along with other picks/players for the right style PG or PF to fit their system.

The Magic declined to give an official response to this rumor.

Sources say the Pacers may consider shopping a package of Dirk Nowitzki and Lance Stephenson once they are available to be traded. Speights and Fredette may also be shopped around. They are after a more steady frontcourt player.

Following the wave of rumors and the recent trades, sources revealed that the Thunder are currently working the phone lines to find an interior defensive presence to their bench.
Derrick Williams being touted as available, along with all the amount of CAP they have (even more once the Chuck Hayes trade is confirmed). Some say JJ Barea can be had, though he's playing an important role for them, so they don't really want to get rid of him.

Suns actively looking for a defense-oriented 2 guard with an acceptable shooting rate to step into the starting lineup in place of JJ Redick. Primarily looking to use their picks assets to get a deal done

Lately, the rumors coming from Dallas have surfaced to nothing. Trade talks have always fallen through as both sides haven't always been able to come to agreement...This time, things might be different for Dallas. After a horrid start to the season, they're looking to shake things up with another team that's also off to a bad start. All we can confirm is that it might be a shooting guard coming to Dallas.

Wolves getting desperate to make a move now. Lots of talks with various teams, but nothing has devloped into anything susbstantial yet, even with danglimg everyone kn the roster available in a deal. Jake is listening to any and all offers including those for Kevin Love and Ben McLemore.

Also, looks like the Lin experiment might be coming to am end.

Orlando, Florida

Breaking news today in Orlando through unnamed sources is that it's actually Shane Larkin who will be packing his bags soon. An earlier rumor had surfaced that Ricky Ledo was heading out of the Sunshine state but these rumors appear to be false.

Word is though that the Magic are still looking for a possible suitor for the 3 point gunner as well as possibly their 1st round pick this year.

Stay tuned.
