Bird is the word.....early bird that is.
Likely back on a sub TMLE level deal.
If the Raptors can create some kind of TPE with Dragic, I'm wondering if that could be used to give THT a bigger payday than that.

Well, he’s better than Lonzo and the Bulls paid him $85 million and have been praised. But yes, that would have been a difficult contract to deal with.

They weren't praised by me for Lonzo.

Markkanen not finding any money surprises me a bit. He wanted to be in Dallas and I'm still on board if Chicago is willing to play along in a S&T. Thought this would be the Spurs but they went with Collins/Doug. OKC might should be making a call here? I know Pacers fans will hate it but I don't mind them being a player.
I don’t even see what Dallas could offer Chicago that would interest them honestly. Is it just Powell and a pick? But then what pick, that Dallas owns, is Lauri worth?
With Lonzo/Zach/Caruso/White - I don’t see Green or Brunson being selling points.
Lauri is a big surprise to me though. I expected SAS to pay him as well. Confused by Chicago though, they might see him as a long term piece and get to keep him on a good contract now? He’s an awful fit with Vooch - but he does seem to fit with White/Lonzo/Williams. That’s not a great young core but is a backup option if the team blows it up? Obviously not their plan or a good plan.
Rumors/Whispers from Chicago are this:
1. Zero percent chance Lauri stays in Chicago.
2. The Bulls have an offer for Lauri in a sign and trade.
3. The Bulls like the idea of a deal Lauri for Derozen, but the Spurs are hoping to get John Collins instead, so everyone is in a waiting period.

I can see that happening and then being released out into the vet min market.Mob Byers wrote:Someone on the Dubs board mentioned the Spurs might waive Thad and Aminu but no source

Can potentially flip one of those contracts to the Lakers as part of a Caruso sign and trade. I like Princes fit on their roster and it gives them a 13mm expiring to play with at the deadline. MIN gets their cap savings and CHI gets value for Marrkanan.
Lakers might need to sign and trade Wes Mathews to create enough outgoing salary. Or this can be expanded if MIN has interest in Schroeder.
I wonder if the wizards could try to pick up value from the Westbrook trade and flip Keith or Kuz to the hornets for some value, some to NYK or Kuz or bertans to the spurs.Devilanche wrote:
