I heard Odom has the power to travel through time with a magical pocketwatch. I don't know where you heard your tidbit but I heard mine from a reputable source.

Then again, I didn't make a thread about what I heard. Maybe I should.

I'm with you. I think there is something majorly up. I just question the source is all, since its a semi-reputable source talking about an anonymous source. We'll have to see.

I'd have preferred it in the Odom thread until it was official, but we all have different opinions, I guess.

Some of us would prefer to not have an "offseason discussion" thread 2 months before the Mavs win a championship.

Ok, low blow. I'm sorry. Don't hit me.

So you posted that a Dwight trade was "imminent" this morning, without quoting a single source, and now you're blasting him for quoting someone on twitter that could very plausibly have some legitimate Laker connections?

He quoted a tweet by a video game designer wishing LO's family well and said he "heard" that Odom was being bought out. I mean I love the 2k series as much as anyone but I'll wait till I see it. I don't doubt that Odom is trouble. I won't be surprised if Odom is bought out. I just don't like a thread about Odom being gone because a video game designer heard from a guy (unnamed source( that Odom was gone.

As for me, In the Howard threat, I merely restated an article titled.....wait for it....

"Magic Deny Rumors Of Imminent Howard To Lakers Trade" found on the wire and on the Orlando Sentinel website. I meant to put some quotations around "imminent" but was at work at the time. Still I dont think its a terrible stretch seeing as its in the title of the article.
http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap...o_Lakers_Trade
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sport...tory?track=rss

So yeah.

Seriously.

What you got?
You said a trade was imminent. With no quote, no source, no nothing.

He quoted a well known Laker blogger. Maybe this guy knows what he's talking about, maybe he doesn't, but he's not some random fan, and calling Mavs777 out for posting it is silly and petty.

Also, to continue the thread:

Quote:
Zach Lowe ‏ @ZachLowe_SI
As others have tweeted in last hour, rumblings all weekend in ORL that something fishy is up with Odom. No confirmation, though.
Doesn't get much more reputable than Zach Lowe, so I assume it's ok for me to post this.

OK, I'm "silly and petty". I'm OK with that.

P.S. My source was an article entitled "Magic Deny Rumors Of Imminent Howard To Lakers Trade"

Forgetting to post a source when its frontpage on RealGM....well I suppose that's a small sin.

Pretty hypocritical of you though to call me out on it for making a snide remark to 777 about a semi-reputable source.
