I just listened to it. Its around the 55ish minute mark.

He is just doing pure speculation. Says we MAY not be done yet, and that none of our trades are official, so there is some rumblings and rumors about us and Goran Dragic, Josh Hart going somewhere else, briefly says maybe Lauri or Buddy.

He is very vague and just says some minor rumblings, nothing concrete.

That is some random person that Shamit retweeted. I don't see a tweet from Windy so I guess he said it on TV. Can anyone else confirm?

Hoop Collective pod, 55 minutes in. Says multiple times that we’re not done. Says there have been rumblings about Dragic, Markkanen, and that Buddy is available and he could see him making sense for us (sounds most confident about the Goran stuff).

I felt like he was more confident about us not being done yet

FYI, they all think we got worse because Ball is apparently way way better than anyone we got

I didn't get that impression at all. It was very vague and very "minor rumors and rumblings" and "its possible" type of stuff.

Basically, the stuff we have said.

Just found the spot in the podcast. I'll do my best to transcribe:

Windhorst:
quote:

So I don't think the Pelicans are done yet. I believe they still have some cap space. They still haven't actually done the Graham S&T so they could possibly expand that S&T. There's been some rumbling about possibly doing a deal with Toronto to acquire Goran Dragic who Griff has a relationship with. Dantoni also has a history with Dragic.

I've heard a couple of rumors out there about Josh Hart. Josh Hart could still stay but I heard some rumors about where he could go in a S&T.

I think Jonas wants an extension. I like Val for them.

...

New Orleans I do think has some interest possibly in Markannen.

New Orleans isn't done. But I'm not blown away impressed.

The other thing I will say is I do think Buddy Hield is still available on the market because they were ready to trade him to the Lakers. There's a possibility that Buddy Hield could be on the move this offseason and I could actually see scenarios where Buddy Hield would actually make sense in New Orleans.

Closer to the 57 minute mark he was more assertive. Said "they are not done yet". The firs part was more speculation, but it was definitely sourced speculation.

Memphis is trading guard Grayson Allen to Milwaukee for Sam Merrill and two future second-round picks, sources tell ESPN.

I like that for Milwaukee.

I wonder if that is...

INCLUDED IN THE MEMPHIS TRADE

IMO Memphis is having a much worse offseason than us, MUCH worse. But no one cares.

It's mind blowing. It's like they looked on Basketball Reference and saw his 3P% went up and saw a few cross court pass highlights and that's about it. I don't see how anyone who's actually watched him play for a full season can have this take

Sadly, it probably could have been as Memphis trying to get off of his contract and we sold 3 2nds. Would have been a relatively cheap shooter.

I thought we sold 1 second, and traded 2 others for future seconds?

Sold 2 and traded one for a distant 2nd and cash.

unbelievable that we didn't get Allen included in the original deal, or get it included today. Who wants a 40% 3 point shooter who plays good defense for $4M 1 year deal.
