    Team unknown, but I saw someone get ahold of a Sam Smith quote that I can't source say that it's for two lesser players. Maybe the Bucks, Spurs (Roger Mason?), or Magic? Those teams were all rumored to have some level of interest in Salmons IIRC

    As long as they don't have to give up a first round pick to get rid of him, I'm satisfied.

    Re: Breaking Twitter: Salmons traded

    The Bucks are another team that would make some sense. Since Redd is likely to be out for quite a while (or forever), Salmons could be a stopgap there too. They've got plenty of mediocre bigs who could be depth for us (Warrick- high end, Kurt Thomas, Joe Alexander, Fran Elson, etc).

    David Aldridge's tweet:

    Not finalized, but two sources say Bulls and Bucks may be closing in on deal sending Salmons to MKE for Kurt Thomas, Francisco Elson.

    That might get us enough under the cap, depending on what the cap ultimately is. We know the projected one, the actual one might be less.

    Pretty sure that gets us max room for one even under the most gloomy predictions.

    Great deal if true. I'm shocked if we don't send some cash or some picks to the Bucks. As long as it's not a 1st rounder I'm thrilled.

    I'm kind of surprised, too. That deal cuts the bulls payroll down over a million as well. There has to be cash involved.
