BRUNSON BURNER: to NYK for 4yrs/$104M (no SnT) | NYK docked 2025 2nd for tampering

[DanSchwartzgan]

There you go, @"DanSchwartzgan".

I bet the deal you've been promoting was made possible for the Mavs, but Cuban didn't want to take on the salary of the player(s) (and pay the tax on them), even to get the pick back.

Two second rounders and cash?  I'm not sure why NY would offer Dallas its first back if there was a path to doing it for two second rounders and cash.

Everything always hinged on NY needing to pay someone at least a first to take one of the $10mm NY players.  Moving both for such a low cost means we never had a shot at getting our 2023 pick back.

I think some of these experts are getting carried away with how much money Brunson is going to get.  Some of this space may be related to a Murray deal.
