    Denver signs Bogdanovic, or Ariza.

    That would be a great fit for them.

    Denver is in a weird spot though. They have until tomorrow to decide on Paul Millsap's contract which is $30 million. If they pick it up they could maybe squeeze the Full-MLE if they let Trey Lyles go too.

    If they let Millsap walk they could have as much as $18 million in cap space but I don't know if losing Millsap and adding Bogdanovic makes them that much better. They could rework a longer deal for Millsap but then likely wouldn't have enough cap space to do much else still. They'd most likely be priced out of Ariza and Bogdanovic.

    I understand, and we didn't really discuss numbers at all, but I think Bogdanovic would be a really good fit.

    If they don't pick up his option, how much did you think Millsap could command on the open market given his age and the volume of free agents out there?

    Maybe in the 3 year, $45 million range?

    If I'm Millsap I'd probably ask for 2 years, $40 million from Denver or say I'm leaving if you don't pick up my option. I wouldn't be happy signing anything less when I could've made that much this season.

    It's tough because he's 34 but he's also a big part of Denver's success.

    I'm really not sure if he's that important to their success or not. His numbers are solid (like usual), I think he's mainly important for the intangibles he brings. He seems to definitely be on the downward trend.

    He's probably the best fit our team could hope for other than Al Horford or Draymond Green..(yeah, I said it)..any of those 3 guys put you right into contention ..it would take a miracle of a series of deals to do it but man...that's a dynasty to me

    NBA reinstates Tim Donaghy on probational basis. "Everyone deserves a second chance to fuck the Blazers," says Commisioner Adam Silver.

    Jokic is a fairly pedestrian defender so without Millsap their defense would take a pretty big hit.

    Denver picked up Milsaps option and they gave Lyles a qualifying offer.

    Fuck it I’ll play.

    Portland signs Kaminsky. Woj tweeted that there will be a lot of interest in him. That was the clue I needed.
