So Milwaukee very obviously promised this to Trent last offseason if he re-signed for the minimum Not even joking this is worth an investigation lol

And this is exactly why Scal gave Isola the warning to chill out😭

@Shooting_TheGap That’s exactly the problem. Both sides know how this looks, so i’m sure they’ve taken every precaution so that the nba can’t find a smoking gun Would be very difficult to *prove* in any kind of arbitration setting

There are absolutely things the NBPA can fight harder to fix — restricted free agency is still a huge open sore — but the aprons do not inhibit spending as much as we think Since the ‘23 CBA, teams spend a higher percentage (over 120%) of the salary cap than under any prior CBA

@KingCrab1984 I do not think that falls under the same umbrella of circumvention

“Federal agents” im so sure. At some point we can start calling them what they are

Mavs traded AD for the 30th pick, future 2nd rounders, and salary matching One year ago he was the centerpiece in a trade for a generational superstar. For the final time, bravo Nico!

@Tag15___ Those balloon deals are different. Bruce Brown in particular was only 1-year/$22m guaranteed if memory serves

Mitchell Robinson. 10 off-rebounds in 18 minutes. Stat of the night

Knicks just shot 70% on 2s for an entire game. Insane to only hit seven 3s and still end up with 132 points

The Spurs are 9-3 without Wembanyama and have SEVEN players averaging 13+ points per game in that span

Jalen Duren is about to realllllly feel the squeeze

Really really awesome that Toronto basically has to trade RJ Barrett because they gave Jakob Poeltl an extension for no reason

Brice Sensabaugh is the 20th player in NBA history to record 43+ points off the bench

This scenario is exactly why Jimmy Butler forced his way out of Miami btw

There are way better players available than who the Lakers have lost in free agency (excluding Bron of course). Still feeling confident they fill out a deeper roster than they’ve had

Hard to enter trade discussion with a worse negotiating position than Denver right now Whoever they do business with seems likely to get the stronger end of any deal

What in the world is SAC doing man

@MikeAScotto Oh my god!?!?
