Minny loses out on Garland because the Cavs take him, and the Cavs supposedly took Garland because we took Hunter who they initially wanted so they went with Culver? So they basically wanted to replace Teague with a rookie and now a free agent. Wolves mission this summer: Get a new point guard...

 

Teague: Whats ur man gotta do with me?

  

Musical chairs in the soap 🧼 opera known as the association.

I wouldn't mind taking back Jeffrey to be our backup vet PG off the bench. I guess we'd hafta take Dieng as well? What would it take? Flipping Adams and Len (smaller salaries) to them with us getting a future pick back?

Ummmm, trade would be Adams and Plumlee for Dieng/Teague and a first round pick. Backup PG and C problem solved. Dieng fits very well on our team.

Hawks don't have the capspace to take both, we'd have to send back salary. Teague and Dieng is $35 mil, hawks have $13 mil in space, that leaves a difference of $22 mil.

I don't see the Hawks taking on a total $52 million(Teague (19) Dieng (16+17) for 1 future 1st when Crabbe alone was 1 first.

Was his QO issued or no?

[EazyRoc]

How about George Hill at backup PG ? He’s about to get waived.

[JayBirdHawk]

 

 

 

He was eligible for 5 years $221 mil, (good Lawt ) the super max. Horcats offered 5yrs/$170 mil.

And here it is....

Charlotte PG going to Boston?  That's the rumor.

Stylistically, kemba and kyme aren't that different.  He'll be a breath of fresh air attitude-wise.

They're going to miss Baynes and are certainly going to miss Alice.

This is like 2 steps forward, 3 steps back for them.  If they try to bring rozier back, it would be a disaster.

[JayBirdHawk]

 

This is surprising, but he says he wants stability for his family after being traded twice in last year.

There is still the Brown/Tatum vs Haywood dynamic. How does Brad manage that?

[High5]

Good for Millsap getting that $30 million. I didn't think it had any chance of happening a year ago.

Minny is said to be interested in Russell. They don't have capspace but there's a rumor they found a team to take Wiggins and his albatross contract.

If Butler gets the 5th year on his contract from Philly, he likely stays.

I think so, they had a good thing going.

I feel bad for Kenny Atkinson.

Kimba Walker puts up great numbers, but is sort of a blackhole.

It's a pretty solid recovery for boston if they make it happen though.
