Bradley Beal and Zach Levine are like "WTF?"

[MarkAguirreWrathofGod]

Yes this is clearly to avoid tampering charges. Yawn. Not sure why Miami?

Adds to the air of plausible deniability.

Overlooking the court that has the jumbotron going throughout saying “Welcome to the Knicks, Jalen Brunson”

So Dallas is playing nice and in return they get into an expanded 3 way with NYK and Detroit as FGump or DanS. or someone has elucidated above. Crafty.

And Jalen will be in Knicks practice gear, laying on a trainers' table, getting treatment before his daily workout with the Knicks players summering in NY.

Why wouldn't they play nice?

Genius.

A couple of questions regarding Frank (since we are so close to the apron).  If we let his $2.0mm NG go and sign him to the minimum (his minimum), how much does his new contract count against the apron?  Also, would we still have his EB rights?  Thanks in advance.

1 "If we let his $2.0mm NG go and sign him to the minimum (his minimum), how much does his new contract count against the apron? " .... His existing number is $2.036M, a new minimum would be either be $1.835M or $2.132M, depending on length of contract.
2 "would we still have his EB rights?" ...If he's waived, Bird clock restarts. But he's also UFA and free to sign anywhere for any amount.

Note that they didn't say they wouldn't trade him. Just not for Kyrie Irving. Oddly specific caveat.

 He was an under the radar guy I like.  I didn't expect him to become available.  The Timberwolves have two more of my under the radar guys who had options picked up: Naz Reid & Jaylon Norwell

Interesting

Supposed Looney odds - not interesting after all. The post was a lie.

GS is the MASSIVE Las Vegas favorite to sign Looney. Mavs are nowhere near the favorite.

These odds are the ones you can bet on -- but GS is considered a lock, basically, and Vegas will let you waste your money betting on a different outcome if you wish.

Lost in the Thybulle tweet was s tweet that Lu Dort is available. Is he not a better offensive player and slightly less defensive than Thybulle? Green and a first, does that get it done?
