Who is this mystery team…?
Any team that Fisher failed to mention and trade for him. I just think it is a way to cover all ground.

I think Lilliard is a long shot, but I do think Beal could be interesting if Washington gets off to a slow start. Washington made a lot of moves and they clearly think of themselves as a playoff team. I could see them as a 6-7 seed, but I can also things getting really bad. I could see Simmons as an attractive target if Washington decides to blow things up. Although, other teams may have younger, cheaper assets that Washington may value more.
I think this is the main problem with Simmons is whether or not he is attractive for a team blowing it up?
Usually teams like that wants a really young player (19-24) in his rookie contract and draft compensation to help during there early tanking process.
Simmons is a huge contract and a player who is at start of his prime (he is 25) so he is more in the "win now" mode.
A young team that wants to improve and see the playoff could have a use of him, teams like the Cavs, Kings, Wolves probably feels the window to get a franchise player is closed anyway and it is time to at least be good team, Pistons and Rockets probably feels they have a young franchise player and they want to speed their process.
I just don't think he is what a team like Wizards will want unless they want to continue to be playoffs.
MJ: I won three titles with Rodman.
LeBron: I won a title with Kyrie.
MJ: Okay you win.
Speaking of winning, so did Cleveland win the I.Thomas trade.
Keith Smith is a real great source for all the minor moves made by teams. I saw a lot of shuffling by many teams to get rights on players for g-league but nothing with Mavs. Anyone saw anything about Mavs - Legends relationship, since Donnie is the owner of the Legends?

And he is also a decent source on CAP implications and not just someone who only tweets when a major move is made...Smith has always been a go to guy during TDL and off-season times...and he actually spends the time to answer questions from fans of all teams with what he knows or has heard...

I think Phoenix would be better with Luka + Booker.

Only thing worse than paying one big man is paying two big men.

You traded Luka to Phoenix for Ayton, not me.

No he didn’t, he traded Luka for Booker, Ayton, Bridges and 4 firsts.
