[KeonClark]

Memphis is in strong talks to move franchise star Marc Gasol to Charlotte, league sources tell @TheAthletic @WatchStadium.

Memphis has officially pulled the plug on an era

[Mitchell Duong]

I'm down with a Lowry/Conley swap. Masai can even troll with a press conference explaining the definition of insanity.

[KeonClark]

Whats funny is this: you know what team probably needs Kyle Lowry the most in the NBA right now, to improve them from where they are and are currently in a win now mode anyway?

The San Antonio Spurs

[Mitchell Duong]

Spurs won't want him for the reason we're trying to move him.

He's busted.

And all the other leaks and noise was just to get Charlotte to give a less protected pick

That might not be why TO is trying to move him...

[Mitchell Duong]

That might not be why TO is trying to move him...

No but his on court performance lends more to that belief than stating that he is unhappy or fighting with Masai or whoever.

The version of the Lowry/JV for Conley/Gasol talks I'm hearing is they were initiated by Memphis as they try to assess market for their players during their teardown. Did not progress very far.

Did not progress very far.

'How about throwing in Siak-'

And an American reporter is saying we came back and added Delon or a pick...Granges tweet totally reads like hes a mouthpiece for MLSE, especially when they quickly wrote an article and put it on "Rogers" Sportsnet.ca saying the same stuff

The San Antonio Spurs

Actually you know who could really use him? Last year's coach of the year who's currently in 9th place.

Lowry saved his job the first time around, why not another?


Toronto gets Mike Conley.
Detroit gets Kyle Lowry
Memphis gets Reggie Jackson, Jon Leur and a FRP from Detroit

Memphis will sit Marc Gasol out tonight. The Grizzlies and Hornets are still discussing framework of deal, including matching the salary necessary to meet Gasol's $24.1M contract, sources said. https://t.co/cgnqxmzM2w

Meh. I trust Grange over some rando.

Lowry/JV for Conley/Gasol isn't a Masai type trade. Too lateral. Makes more sense that Memphis would be leaking to drive up value. Especially after that Marshon/Dillon Brooks nonsense; Wallace isn't on the level.
