This makes me believe the rumor is true. Health first for Pop. Probably what his colleagues are telling him too.

Why is another play in tournament needed?
They're cool
Adrian Wojnarowski @wojespn
The Play-in Tournament still needs to be approved by the Board of Governors, but that is a formality, per sources: No. 7 and No. 8 seeds need to win once to stay in playoffs; No. 9 and No. 10 seeds need to win twice to move up into field. Tentative dates of event: May 17-21.

The Lakers are engaged in active talks on a deal to acquire Oklahoma City’s Dennis Schröder, which would send No. 28 pick in Draft to the Thunder, sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium.
Supposedly the Lakers would send Danny Green and their pick to OKC for Dennis Schroeder

Lakers guard Danny Green and the No. 28 overall pick have been a focus of the trade discussions for Schroder, sources tell ESPN.
How many picks does OKC need? Jesus
Guess no DeMar for Lakers
The rich always get richer in the NBA lol No doubt OKC re routes Danny green somewhere too
Heat, Nets or Clippers
No deals happening. Spurs will stay pat per usual. All rumors are all smoke. No fire..
Danny still makes close to 15M. He seems more like a buyout candidate to me.
It sells: $$$$

Teams will need to issue qualifying offers to make free agents restricted by Nov 19 (the day after the draft)

Instead of March 1, the deadline for players to be waived while retaining playoff eligibility will be April 9

Free agents signed this offseason cannot be traded any earlier than Feb 6; Those who are-resigned via Early or Full Bird have to wait until March 3 to be traded

League-wide cut-down date (usually Jan 10) will be Feb 27 - except teams need to waive the player earlier to get them off the books (instead of Jan 7, Feb 24)

ESPN Sources with @ramonashelburne and @ZachLowe_NBA: As Houston’s James Harden considers his future with franchise, one possible trade destination is rising to top of his list: Brooklyn. The idea of reuniting with Kevin Durant and joining Kyrie Irving is resonating with Harden.

He’s on an expiring deal, and it’s not that hard for a contender to trade for him (have to cobble together like $10mm of salary). Doubt he gets bought out.
Given that he's signed for basically 3 more seasons (p/o, but I doubt he turns down $47+M at 33), he basically has no leverage.
If he asks out and I'm the Rockets, I'm not interested in LeVert, Dinwiddie, Allen, Prince, 1st(s). That's the type of overrated, short sighted crap idiots like the Spurs would be interested in.
I'm zeroing in on the 76ers and Simmons ++ because that's the type of piece who could potentially be a bridge to another era of contention. I might even take Horford alongside, just to up the youth/picks capital, then cut salary in a Westbrook salary dump.
I wonder if OC will eventually have trouble offloading those picks. Keeping them all is difficult because the earlier ones will be up for paydays by the time the later ones are drafted. Boston seems to have more picks than they want too; parleying extra picks into a star is not nearly as easy as it sounds.
I'm sure the Spurs would be plenty interested in acquiring Simmons, given that they told Philly that was the price for Kawhi. Philly probably messed up by refusing that deal, since they likely could've still done the Butler trade and had the best roster in the league on paper. If for some weird reason, Simmons is attainable in a DeRozan trade, I'd also assume PATFO would prefer that to a package from Brooklyn. I strongly doubt that would happen, though, unless Morey really hates Simmons and the rest of the league has stopped believing in him. I also think in terms of pure building blocks, any sizeable chunk of Brooklyn's assets would be likely to form the best future-looking package the Spurs can get. I don't see another team beating Levert/Prince/19. Getting a lock-up young guard would also let the Spurs trade Murray to move up in the draft, thus giving them a better chance at getting the future building block they don't have a realistic path to acquiring this season otherwise.
White, Mills
LeVert, Walker,
Johnson, Nesmith (19)
Okongwu (6), Lyles, Samanic
Aldridge, Poeltl
Not bad considering the talent drop-off between DeRozan and Harden.
Really weird to criticize PATFO in this case, in other words.
Yeah. You've gotta be willing to risk the picks becoming something good instead of holding onto them for maximum value. By the time the draft hits, very few teams want to have three guaranteed rookie salaries on their books.
Chris Haynes reported that AD was declining his option, if Demar did decided to opt into his option before the draft could we trade him then or does all trades have to be after the draft when it comes to player options
