No call on Muscala? He isn't really good but I was already surprised he stayed last offseason...

I would guess if he wants to play, we’ll let him. As long as he doesn’t start winning games.

Muscala seems like something that will happen at the very last minute. The Oladipo market has gone radio silent, Houston's asking price probably too high.

I think oladipo is going to have a rude awakening this summer.

Weird move for Atlanta but I thought it was sort of weird to sign him in the first place. Feel bad for Lou.

Edit: ah, the 2nds make more sense

I love Stone's job in Houston so far but trading for Oladipo was a big mistake

Just means Lou can spend more time at Magic City. Those wings are really great or so I'm told.

Weird that no team is willing to send a 2nd for Muscala :(

The Justin Jackson rumors were weird anyway...

Toronto keeping Lowry is good for us because Miami doesn’t get better and Toronto doesn’t get worse.

There must be a lot coming across here at the buzzer because this is way too quiet across the board. Barely any role players even getting moved.

You guys get the feeling that the COVID season has just sort of **** the rhythm of the league? Feels like there should be a lot more teams actually gunning for it and that this is a pretty open title race considering the Lakers' and Nets injury issues. And yet not a ton of big name stuff happening today.

Bulls beat reporter says they’re talking with Boston about Daniel thies. I’m still holding out hope it’s because Boston is trading for Horford. :)
