    Can Detroit sign and trade him? If yes I don’t know who would do it though?

    Don't even know where the money is coming from. Must be a deal.

    I like this though as it means the Nuggets are getting worse. Millsap probably re-signs in Denver.

    I actually like Jeff Green but steam would shoot out of my ears if we overpaid anyone like that... now for the BAE? Hopefully we get someone much better at forward with the MLE and use the BAE on someone who can have a greater impact on the team.

    27 mil for 3 yrs is NOT the full BL
    there was a rumot early Sac was
    whoa, now we know why Wood was gone, I did not think Detroit had that much cap - bummer for Denver but if he's not coming to us better Grant goes to Detroit- he got PAID

    They don't. It has to be a sign and trade. Probably Dedmon and some other pieces going out.

    There was a report yesterday that Detroit traded for Dedmon to use him in another trade. Guess we know now...

    I thought Grant would get a 3 year 56M, so kinda close I guess. Glad he went East

    Things seem to be going slow this year. I think it's good that Olshey has made a few moves to strengthen the club already, Kanter, Hood and Covington. Because I think we have a bunch of clubs after a few guys and all they have is the MLE. So it might not be about money. Now the GMs (and hopefully Lillard) are out there selling their city and their team as winners. And I think Blazerkor might be right it's a tough game; you don't want to be caught putting too much effort into a guy who might not sign. I might want to have more than one management team out there working on different guys and trying to get a sense of how they are leaning. One good thing; since all meetings are virtual, it can't go on so long, like when guys used to fly from one city to another having dinner with different teams.

    Hell, maybe Ariza is on the move again in a Grant sign and trade.

    If Millsap goes back to Denver (which they need now), and we miss out on Ibaka and Wood, it gets pretty thin after that in terms of an impact player at an MLE level.

    How about Bobby Portis? Brought him up a few days ago. He's a guy that nobody is talking about. The way dollars are flying, there are some guys that are going to fall through the cracks.
