Anyone with Commercial Appeal access, what's the ZBo trade rumor? bit.ly/16WA9Mo

Greedy ?@GreedyNBastards 16m

@TomLorenzo "One rumor –- unsubstantiated so far -- floating around is that the Griz offered forward Randolph to Pelicans for Eric Gordon"


That's two fans tweeting, but the quote is supposedly from a registration required article at the local Memphis newspaper.

Interesting.

Seems a goofy offer, if real, but the NBA can in fact be goofy.

The front court would have been super elite with Randolph.

Interesting. If Memphis really offered that, I woould have said no thanks on Randolph, but let's add a third team and see what we can do.

If it's coming from Memphis, their FO must think Ed Davis is ready to play big minutes.

From the realgm forum:

quote:

"Grizz and Pelicans talk happened early in free agency. Grizz turned down Gordon - Smith for Randolph and pick." Per Cam


Don't know who Cam is. If true, I'd have to imagine they had plans on moving ZBo to another team.

I have a hard time believing that. Memphis would riot if Z-Bo got traded
