Yet another center what in the actual fu*k is going on?
Vucevic has to be on his way out.
It was for Purvis non-guaranteed deal. Cash considerations our way.

We've already buried Birch down to 3rd string, so why another big man? Unless...! No, I won't dare think it.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

We are definitely making the most weirdest trades of all teams this summer.

Re: Magic acquire Dakari Johnson
I look at this of getting rid of one prospect and taking a look at another. Wasn't a fan of Purvis anyways. Something definitely has to give though because the roster is unbalanced right now.

Re: Magic acquire Dakari Johnson
I forget, is there a cap on the amount of cash that can be sent? If not, I suppose it's possible that they sent us like 1.5mill (or maybe a bit more) and that we waive his 1.4mill guaranteed salary and wind up with a free 100k in the Devos coffers compared to just waiving Purvis like we were likely to do. Meanwhile, OKC sheds the 1.4mill off their cap. Which would have to mean something for them in order for this angle to make sense. Luxury tax threshold maybe? And they'd save their owner a million dollars or so. I'm not going to go look because I don't care enough.

I wish I could Photoshop, because I'm imagining this scene in a graveyard where a smiling Vuc is placing Dakari Johnson's body in an empty grave, with the surrounding tombstones having names like Dewayne Dedmon and Bismack Biyombo. And an empty grave with Bamba's name on it.
