Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this dude a baseball insider who lives in England? That's what his bio says at least.

I believe that with the proper training, bringing him along slowly and not rushing his development, he's the best player on this draft hands down. It may take some time, but to me it's worth if it means develop a 20 year old 7-footer into a star. He can be the Tim Duncan of our David Robinson, if, of course, we somehow are able to land him. Don't see him as an Oden type by no means.

I'll bet my kid's tuition on a pre-draft rumor. And my wife Megan Good's wedding ring.
And my exact replicas of monster trucks Bigfoot and Gravedigger.

Maybe he thinks Tyreke can play point full time.
In my humble opinion...
this is all a load of crap, just saying. some rando with no credibility tweets we are trying to get in top five? I believed the earlier rumors that we were trying to get a pick later on and then package that in another deal because that actually makes sense and is doable but this sounds ridiculous
never assume
Vonley or Gordon???? We have 2 stud PF's, i don't get it...
thats like the pacers trying to trade up for wiggins or the thunder for jabari...
Gordon reminds me a lot of Blake Griffin.
"I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

I just can't imagine us going after a top 5 pick unless it's to make a move for a big name FA. Melo/LBJ/Love. Hence, I can't see us going after a top 5 pick.

"always be sincere....whether you mean it or not"
If we move into the top 5 it has to be for either wiggins, parker or embiid, if one of them drops, it'll be a trade during the draft
reminds me of blake griffin/kenneth farried type
He's more of a Shawn Marion type.
I'd give up pretty much anything for Noah Vonleh.
We would have the most talented young frontcourt in the league by far.
He could play center; hence, appeasing Davis.
Having two guys who can play center with 7'5" wingspans, but are coordinated enough to play PF is probably a good start to building a winning franchise.
ecspecially when they are both under 21
I think Vonleh is my 4th favorite prospect.
Yeah, Vonleh seems like he is going to be a baller.
You know, say this were true, it would only make sense when Dell acquired Holliday and Tyreke last year, that the FO had a fallback plan.
Noel wasn't healthy and too similar to Davis. Embid could rightfully have an injury plagued career. Gordon can't play center, nor make FT's!!!
If we were to move back in and get Noah Vonleh, Dell would be a freaggin genius.
heck i'd give up gordon, anderson and either tyreke or jrue plus picks
Same here.
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
Noah Vonleh is pretty decent though.
With all the respect I have to give to you and your thoughts and opinions, I'm very happy that you are not our GM.
OMG what...if it's a part of another trade like last year? I mean I don't want Gordon but motif it costs us a possible Embiid or Parker....*crosses fingers*
R.I.P. to HunnyB/FlyGirl
So we are just gonna ignore that this tweet came from somebody who has no track record in the NBA and that is beyond unlikely? This thread is just going to continue on until Thursday, with everyone getting their hopes up and then nothing close to this comes to fruition.
Then, Dell has a solid offseason, but doesn't pull a miracle out of thin air and folks are disappointed because they got all excited about rumors that couldn't possibly happen in any realistic world.
Ugh.

I have really been looking forward to this offseason. But I hate all these rumors, because most of them aren't true. But maybe my dream of drafting Parker is still alive. Would love to have a couple kids from the state of Illinois lead the Pelicans to a title.
This.
But in sports I never get too excited until something happens. I compare the NBA offseason to college basketball recruiting. Very Very similar anymore.
Ignoring it would be the logical thing to do, but not near as much fun. Isn't talking about rumors part of the purpose of these types of forums? BTW, the rumor is completely illogical.
