What is going to have to happen for you all to realize Dell is staying and that this franchise is going to stay with the short sided moves for another offseason?

Please tell me he isn't going to try to resign Gordon or Ryno. I'm assuming this also means Reke is sticking around another year.

prepare for more moves in June and July that are made to try and get the Pelicans into the playoffs in 2017.

You think they will try to trade the pick provided it's a top 3 pick for say Jimmy Butler?

If you guys only knew the real offer he turned down for Ryno, this board would explode. But I know, I know, I have no sources according to all you guys. Because you all know me so well. Have met me so many times.

Been saying this about Dell for months, as have all the guys on th site I used to write for. But none of us have sources. Maybe now that Kuch is letting ya'll know, the denial can come to an end and you guys can start coming to grips with what is really going on here.

You guys better hope they land a top 2 pick. If not, prepare for Hield or a trade. Then prepare for them spending too much time trying to bring Ryno back and either overpaying him or losing out on other FA's and then have him go elsewhere anyway.

Gonna be a great summer!

Humor me.

I think I would be more shocked at what Anderson would have fetched than Demps refusing to move him because "playoffs "

Hey man, your good buddy WB504 never said anything negative about you. Shake the haters my friend and spill what you know.

Besides outside of you saying something like Demps turned down a Ryno for Boogie deal, I don't think i can be any lower on Demps than i am right now.

If you have real sources, share real info. Announce what trade Dell turned down for Ryno and have the team or the other team verify it. The BSS guys were adamant that Dell didn't get any offers for Ryno and Dell's move at the deadline was sneaky good.

Unfortunately the expectation all along was that Dell would get one more year, the hope was that Dell gets fired and replaced with someone competent. I

Nah, you guys dont deserve it. The way you have talked about me and my ex-collegues has been beyond disrespectful for a bunch of guys trying their best to provide you with good, absolutely free content.

So now that I am done with that, I am just gonna come here once and a while and needle you all when you are wrong. I saw you guys laugh at my comment a few weeks ago on BSS and say I had no sources. Then, I come on here a few hours before Kuchner announces and tell you Dell isn't going anywhere and you shrug. Now, Kuch tells you and you still don't believe it. It makes me smile. You all are in denial and don't understand how bad it truly is. I am happy that your misery will grow.

And lastly, your comment about the BSS writers is exactly what I am talking about. They did not say NO good deals were offered. They were saying that the ones people were crying about were not on the table. People would say, "Why didn't we get Tobias Harris??" -- Well, because we weren't offered that deal. Or, "Why didn't we get a 2016 first for Ryno like PHX got for Morris or Hou got for Montiejunas??"

Well, because those weren't offered. But see, you read what they say and then create in your mind what they said. You guys always do that. But no, we were not offered a 2016 first or Harris. But we were offered more than a 2nd or KJ McDaniels. I will leave it up to you all to try and find out what the deals were. Have fun asking your sources. Oh, that's right YOU GUYS are the ones who actually don't have any.

Good day!

Dude. Really? Why you take 90% of what people say on the internet seriously is beyond me.

If you love talking hoops, talk hoops. Here there wherever.

You're only proving your critics right with nonsense like this. But, whatever, you do you

We've never claimed that we did. And you know exactly why people give you a hard time about insider info, you've done this to yourself. Between teasing people with stuff you know you aren't going to tell, and then the way you dedicated an entire podcast to Monty getting fired based off inside info and then it actually was someone with the Saints that got fired, you have earned a certain level of distrust with regards to inside info. Now this board with its lack of moderation and college age slant can lead to a less than mature style of arguing, and I do apologize for that, but I don't think people are wrong to question the information here considering all that was really released was "trust us Demps is staying."

I still don't know what to make of Kushner's latest release because we don't know the source. Kushner has certainly done a great job covering the team, and based on his tweets I think this is based on his own investigation of why Demps doesn't have a presser scheduled, so he's probably asking the right questions, but I wonder if he's able to ask the right people. Timmie has been telling us non stop in this thread what Demps told him, but that's a source with some major flaws.

Unless the reason you all think Demps is staying is something like his contract extension was significant enough that he's truly tied at the hip to Gentry, I just don't think any source within the Demps camp would know if he were getting fired when the Monty/Demps decision didn't go down until the 2nd week of May. Even if you told me Demps told you that Loomis told him he's got nothing to worry about, I consider that pretty flimsy evidence that Demps isn't getting fired. It may end up being true, but that is still flimsy evidence. If the source is directly from the Loomis/Benson camp that would cast the information in a different light. Honestly the thing that has swayed my opinion the most wasn't insider info, it was analysis from eyeryan that Loomis probably isn't going to give up his job which means change isn't happening.
