So the Hawks get Splitter from the Spurs and resign Millsaps, but Demarre Carroll leaves for Toronto. Interesting.

I recall William Moore not being a fan of PM after the conference finals so I'll be interested to see what he says if he wanders over here.

Greg Monroe to Bucks Max Contract

Had max offers from Portland, New York, Lakers and Bucks and chose the Bucks because he could win.

Welcome to the new NBA.

Also, another big man off the market. Some team is going to get left out in the cold and we have Al Jefferson in this crowded, long-range-shooting front court and it doesn't make sense for us to pay him next year...

We won't pay him next year.  We'll have so much cap room it's going to be ridiculous.  Sadly, we'll be offering these players to play with Kemba Walker and Frank Kaminsky.  SMH.

Both of which are infinitely better options going forward than Al Jefferson.

Also all indications are we don't sell "You get to play with this guy!" We take a page out of the Panthers book and sell "establishing a good culture, chemistry, etc) and it has worked, even if the signings themselves haven't.

Good point.  Spots like LA and places like that are cool.  But with the money these NBA players make, they can take vacations anytime they have a break anyway.

      What we had then, what we have now...

      By d-dave · Posted

      If only those guys grew on trees? The 2015 team was really special.  That was such an incredible year until the Super Bowl. What happened was the owner let the football people handle football decisions.  We had a front office that made some really good decisions.  Just hit on FAs and draft picks at a high level.  Those guys became GREAT players.  Our head coach held the team to a standard, but allowed them to be themselves.  That let so many of those guys grow into vocal leaders and tone setters.  Then we had Cam play lights out for the entire year.  We had a defense led by Luke, one of the best to ever play.  We had guys like Greg and TD who were so smart and tenacious. That was a special team.  The biggest question is how do we bring that back?  We don't because we can't.  Instead, we need to build up the team again.  Bryce is not Cam, duh.  Maybe he's not even the guy next season.  But there are some dudes like DB, Horn, Chubba who are all high character, effort productive players. As team, they need to lean into what they do well, and give Bryce his opportunities to prove himself.  If not, you keep building the best team and work on that QB.

      Did the Panthers get Mike McDaniel fired now?

      By CarolinaLivin · Posted

      Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross was less than thrilled after the Miami Dolphins lost against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, 27-24, dropping their record to 1-4 on the season. "He was really frustrated, just like I was," head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Monday. "We talked about the challenge ahead to get ready for the Los Angeles Chargers, and that was really the extent of it." https://bleacherreport.com/articles/25257873-mike-mcdaniel-admits-dolphins-owner-was-really-frustrated-after-loss-panthers
