Exactly, I was thinking the same thing. 80's and 90's.
Let's just hope we don't go through the drought they did!
Well, it's not looking good so far. I agree, that drought would be the worst thing possible.

I think we're already 8 years in. This team started their descension in the 2010-2011 season.

ESPN insider article with proposed bledsoe trades has 3 possible deals:
Denver for Mudiay and faried
Orlando for payton, hezonja, and augustin
Cleveland for Shumpert, zizic, and a 1st
Mentioned that Milwaukee, Knicks, pistons, clippers, and 76ers could be interested, but don't have or aren't willing to include the right pieces.

Well, the Clippers went 15 years: 1976–77 through 1990–91.
The TWolves are currently on an 13 year drought. Looking good this year for them to end it. Kings currenly on 11 year drought.

Time flies SB. If we aren't careful we'll be here in 16 years talking about the last time we were in the playoffs.

This. Also, what the hell is the Knicks' plan with Hernangomez? They use him as their third center and that's if you're not counting Porzingis. I'm not saying they should trade for Bledsoe but if they're interested in him how on earth aren't they willing to give their third center? I don't get it.

I agree. I'm very surprised at the bullshit Watson pulled given that his only selling point was supposedly his character. And I don't see any point making up some cover stories for Bledsoe that no one believes anyway. Let him own it. Players demanding trades should get a negative trade "kicker" IMO anyway.

Hey, McDonough reads the board! That was my comment he stole!
Well done, Boner, well done.
Well, apparently it is Bledsoe that reads our board and stole my joke.
I was confused. I saw your post and thought it was a joke and then I hear Bledsoe actually said it and then thought you must have just been quoting him.
Cue Twilight Zone music.

I want to know whether Bledsoe got the idea from Bone, or it's just an amazing coincidence. But that mystery may never be solved.

Interesting thought, would you do Bledsoe and Chandler for Drummond?
He changed up his free throw stroke and is 26/32(82%) since the start of preseason. 10/12 in the regular season. His contract is massive but he could be an interesting piece.

Somebody said the tweet may have been taken out of context so I just came up with a scenario where it might be appropriate outside of basketball. Most likely, he just used the same logic to come up with it (after the fact).

Ok. This cannot be a coincidence. Bledsoe reads this board. I don’t buy the idea that you two separately came up with the same excuse.
Nice call Bone.

There is one other option. Gambo said he was on the phone with Bled yesterday. Maybe Gambo reads this board and gave the line to Bled when he talked to him. I could see aGambo reading a board to see if we read him, quote him etc.

And don't be surprised if McDonough somehow pulls a rabbit out of a hat and gets more value for Bledsoe than anyone has thought possible. It happened with M******f and it happened with Dragic. He fouls himself and somehow gets a nice deal to wash the stench off his hands. It's been one of his saving graces, actually.
I wonder if they put together a package of Chriss, Bledsoe, and Chandler for something decent. One can only hope.
I believe this could have landed you Drummond in the offseason but not now. This package has been floating my mind for some time now and have been toying with it on the trade machine.

Gambo reported it before Bone did. Look at the time stamp on the tweet below. Gambo even doubles down by saying "No seriously, saloon" later on.
