    LOL, it's not like this was a progression of free agent targets. Toronto supposedly wanted Hart, Little and 7 for OG. Thybulle is under contract with Philly. They're under no obligation to send him to us. GPII is a free agent. We can bring him in without outside help.

    I'd think they only move Thybulle if something else happens where they need to cut more money, such as a Harris trade for a few players.

    I don’t get worked up either way about this, I’m just trying to ignite conversation. I expect to sign no one every year and then if we do it’s a plus.

    I proposed some possible Hart trades to ATL for Collins. That could make sense more now.

    Don't know about the Hart fit for them, however, after getting Murray, and with Huerter there.

    why is jake airing out our offer? who leaked that? does Payton's representation (same agent repping Dame) think he can get more than that?

    Favor to an agent for information? It happens quite a bit.

    Exactly. Agents trying to up the value of their clients possibly.

    Payton is believed to have offers for the $6.4 million taxpayer mid-level on the table, though one of his known suitors — the Mavericks — spent their taxpayer mid-level to sign JaVale McGee to a three-year deal, wiping away one of the Warriors’ biggest Payton competitors. Others remain. Portland is considered the most serious current suitor, as first reported by Bleacher Report, stretching an offer north of $8 million. Several hours into free agency, the likelihood that Payton grabs one of those competing offers is increasing.
