I guess Micic could still be bought out, but why would they trade 2 seconds for a bought out guy?
I do believe Micic could be decent bench player in the NBA still.
its clearing cash so they can sign Turner directly with cap spaceSixers in 4 wrote:UcanUwill wrote:Whole Micic situation is pretty funny.

He maybe has an agreement to bought out for cheap since he intends to sign in europe anyways. Maybe a way for the Bucks to clear salary and Micic to get a couple of millions of free cash

I see Pat makes 9.4 million, was it worth 2 second rounders to get rid of 9.4 Mil? I wonder what MIL is cooking, but they seem very desperate, I just do not like this team going all in, they are just not good enough.

Solid deal for the Hornets to pick up a few extra picks for a guy they weren't planning to keep.

Its for sure a cost saving move. They probably already had a buyout for him in CHA, they shopped him saying 'this guy is willing to give up X million' and MIL took it.

They jumping through so many rings to just sign Turner. I personally just do not believe team is good enough, this is kinda a downside of having a generational player, everyone gets too attached to him. Ainge cashed on his championship vets in 10s and look what next generation Celtics have achieved. This is like gambling, when you start making moves based on atachements, is when you start losing.
