Silver. But Ainge would be wondering how it got to that point.

One less place for simmons

Shit, well he was never going to be in SA then.

15/year for Johnson is a great deal, tbh..seems like he wanted to stay there..

:lol The contracts that Riley has given out since LeBron left his ass....

But Manu & Hanga & Muli I thought were rumored to come back. Seems like SA needs another big after losing Lee/Dedmon as well (maybe that's Muli).

The hard cap is just for this year, right? I"m 99% sure I knew about the hard cap with S&T's and NTMLE but brain is fried.

Man if we can get Bradley by shipping out Green perhaps s&t simmons. Obviously need to get a third team involved as Celtics don't want salary.

So, Jabari responded to me a while ago. Basically, no trade of Murray or anything implied. It was really simply a matter of SL being a 2 weeks long and not wanting to wear out a crucial piece 3 days into it. Many games left. So no known injuries or trades - just minutes management for what is a long Summer League.

The funny thing is this leaked and had to be walked back days ago :lol

The cap is just for this year.

Manu really doesn't make sense anymore if Simmons comes back. Even if Simmons leaves, Manu and Hanga joining would leave only Pau, LMA and presumably Milutinov as players who can play the five at all. I guess they could cut Forbes and put Manu there, but that would be a shame for Bryn if he continues to have a good summer league.

I said that yesterday - Ersan makes a lot of sense. But honestly thought he would command more than LLE

Knicks giving Hardaway Jr. a 4-year, $71 million offer sheet. :wow

One less suitor for Simmons it looks like, and NY's money is tied up for a couple of days now.

They're rebuilding aka tanking right? Yeah they're not touching that for sure.

Didn't Knick trade him to Hawks not long ago?

Cant even hate on Juice if he bolts for an offer like that. 4 daughters and probably a bunch more on the way, tbh.

Ilyasova has always been on my list this summer, and likely at a gettable price for SA. If we could re-sign Simmons, add Gay and Ilyasova, that'd be a nice off-season all things considered (though we still need one more big down low, or to re-sign Dedmon).
