If the Mavs are far enough under the apron to use the full MLE, the whole world changes. They are also able to consider big money free agents via SNT. And they would have a sizable TPE in pocket, too, created by whatever transaction got them such a huge payroll reduction -- or they could use the TPE immediately by rolling it into the same deal.

For example, using the idea of THJ to DET, and rolling that into the Brunson transaction--- if you tied a SNT into that deal, you can sign someone making almost 25M in 1st year salary. The world changes.


Super interesting.

Looney? Really? Interesting indeed.

The fact that it's gotten this far adds so many questions to the puzzle of what they are doing elsewhere, to make it even a possibility.
Looks like Harden's move opens up the MLE & Biannual exceptions for Philly.  No need to get off a contract now for them per Zach Lowe.

Really curious as to what Vegas knows that we don't.
People are playing too much. The Mavericks currently have the best odds on signing:

Looney
Bamba
Oladipo

Have we ever had odds on this kind of FA before? They’re not stars but they are potential difference makers.

maybe just someone trolling their own stupidity?

Looks like the Knicks will be going after Brogdon.
I am not saying it will happen, but I would not be surprised one bit if DAL is targeting Beal in some crazy way.

If they want a scoring guard who can't play defense, I know one who is younger and who would be considerably cheaper, most likely.

I remember reading early on with Nico that he has a strong connection with Beal.
