7 days max should be allowed to work out ANY details for a trade. If you can't get it done in 7 days it's obvious you're abusing the system and taking advantage of a loop hole.
Officially those trades aren't agreed, so why and how would NBA intervene?

Which is fine by me. If it takes an extra week or two to announce the trade then whatever.

That's a good point and the answer is they couldn't. Which effectively means they can't really do anything. I will now go find something else to be grumpy about.

Is this the Mavs non-signing that hurts the most?

Paul Millsap before he signed with Atlanta.

Not a suprise. He clearly wasn´t his usual self against the Hawks but the way Rivers and Embiid threw him under the bus after the series was not okay.

Yeah. I really wanted them to sign Randle at the time. Thought he would be a great fit and wanted to be in Dallas.
We didn't make the cut but thanks for all the support!

One of them. The DAJ summer has to be one of the worst in Mavs history. 23m for a washed up big instead of locals like Randle or Smart that both wanted to return to Dallas.

Huh. Is the hold up that Ujiri was negotiating something else instead of THE TRADE?

I know most athletes are pretty delusional but Ben Simmons is really taking the cake here.

In the sense that he thinks he has any leverage after his playoff performance. He seems to see himself as one of the best in the league and he is quite far from that at this point.
