    Can some of you cap experts help?

    Can we trade a S&T Nurk along with some of our other contracts in a trade for Ben Simmons?

    Again, you are terrible at things I ACTUALLY say. The FakeNews is strong with you. Never said that at all. Like Ant and think he has potential. But his success was during tanking at a position he won't play much, so it seems fair to question that amount of money.....especially combined with another short, no-defense guard.

    Let me know where 'I don't like Ant' is in there. "Sheesh"

    We can. But a lot on the Brooklyn side depends on what happens with Durant, since a S&T Nurk would hard cap them.

    i never said you don't like Ant. I said you don't like the Ant deal. You complained about it enough in the other thread.

    sure. Nurkic won't be BYC. If he signs for 16M and you add Bledsoe the salaries work. Obviously the Nets will want more than that , bu Simmons is fairly damaged goods at this point

    So a Nurk + Hart + Keon + picks for Simmons deal is theoretically possible... hmm

    I'd hate to give up Hart in the deal, but yeah that's possible. If it's true that the Blazers and Bulls already have an agreement on the 2023 first round pick, then Portland would 5 firsts to trade in 2025-2029

    Spurs looking to release Gallinari after the trade. I wonder where he will choose?

    Kevin Durant is in Portland the last couple days ..was seen in a ferrari limo driving by Grant High School according to Brandon Sprague and Marang. He had an event to attend apparently but I found it interesting. At least he's here when the weather is gorgeous!

    Gallinari/Markkenen is so similar.
