What if the penalty is something crazy like we have to resign Felicio. In fact the punishment for every team is always you must sign Felicio

where are people at now with their expectations on what the outcome is going to be? it’s probably silly to speculate based on an incredibly limited amount of information, but at this point i would be pretty stunned if we got hit with any penalty at the level of a first round pick. it’s dragged on for long enough that nobody actually cares about punishment for free agent signings. these players have established themselves with their teams, people have collectively moved on.

a significant penalty just draws negative attention to a story the nba shouldn’t want anyone to really be talking about

The way they're ominously updating this investigation kind of seems like they're ready to lay the ultimate WTF/FY on Chicago's most exciting season in years/decades.

This feels ominous to me. If they were going to give us a pass, they would just do it. Also concerning from Woj’s article was the point that the Bucks’ penalty was reduced because their tampering was unsuccessful.

Takes 2 to tangle on a trade so Pelicans would have the same outcome the Bulls are having which would be much worse for them since they're a tanking team, makes less $.

This is going to be a shocking penalty. Did I see $10mil and multiple picks being tossed around? Ouch. Don’t count on 2 FRPs this summer.

Bracing myself for a scenario where the league takes away a 1st and the 1st PDX owes us doesn’t convey.

Still think the Portland pick is going to convey, but I've given up on the whole "We'll have to firsts!" thing for a while now.

I dunno. The wheels seem to be coming off in Portland. If they miss the playoffs this season, Dame’s gone, rebuild time and that’s all she wrote.

We’ll see though. It’s a long season.

I just feel like there are actually quite a lot of bad or thoroughly meh teams in the West (New Orleans, Houston, OKC, Minnesota, Sacramento, San Antonio, Memphis, the Lakers?). Dame will be a lot better than he has been. And they're 6-7 now, which isn't terrible considering their schedule.
