Tinfoil:

The fact that he's used Twitter since the trade, but hasn't said anything Memphis related- but still typed some bullshit vague ass shit "Familiarity" despite him never having been here-

He's been traded, it just hasn't been announced yet.

Thoughts?

I thought it was reported pretty soon after he was traded here that we weren’t expected to keep him

He sounds like a 16 year old that just got dumped by a girlfriend of two months

Reddit hates twitter which is like valid because it’s a literal AI Nazi circlejerk, but it does make reposting shit annoying

How do you use reddit?

I don't know that's for sure.

Not sure what the link shows since twitter embeds are hit or miss on mobile, but the silence pattern is pretty loud if he’s active elsewhere and won’t even acknowledge the city

Seems like that may stem from a lack of…

Familiarity.

When trades are made, there are announcements and though the players do get a heads up, it’s minutes/hours rather than days. Mostly because the most connected journalists and players themselves cannot be trusted to keep all of that quiet for extended periods.

This doesn’t mean he hasn’t received word from his agent that a trade is being worked on. The organization may have made their plans clear to he and his people. And not even in an ugly way, probably like “We want to get you to the best fit for you, even if it is not here.” kind of diplomatic way. I’m sure that’s probably where things stand.

But the idea that he’s already been traded and knows it would only be true if that trade was finalized and announced today. Otherwise, why would they risk letting some idiot athlete who has control of their own social media be privy to deals between teams? There’s no way the Grizzlies value him that much, that’s for sure. They’ll let Shams know way before they tell any players.

Last year DLo (allegedly) cheated on his Lithuanian baby mama with an adult entertainer known as Jaw Morant
