"I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."
I'm ok with knight if it gets rid of Asik. I don't think I'd attach anything though since we're taking more money back.
I don't think it had anything to do with the market. It had to do with getting rid of a player that they knew they weren't going to re-sign and getting something back in return at a position of need. Bradley should have always been the player of choice to trade.
I also didn't expect them to get an asset back in return for their salary dump, which makes giving up an "asset" to receive that asset more reasonable, particularly for an expiring. The initial discussion was a return package of Hayward only. While Marcus is the worse of the Morris brothers, he's still a very useful starter in his own right.
On top of all that, the discussion was trading with Utah specifically, not another team. Boston owed Utah nothing, and it was in their best interest to seek the best trade out there for them. Getting an asset back + Hayward for Bradley + 2nd rounder is much better for Boston than Hayward for Bradley + 2nd rounder when they were getting Hayward regardless. They basically upgraded Olynyk for less than half the price.

Small note: Knicks offer sheet for THJ has same salary advance structure as Otto Porter's: 50% of annual salary due by 10/1 every season.

Ya know... Yeah i can see that happening.
That is a really low contract for him
Wizards have withdrawn qualifying offer to RFA Bojan Bogdanovic, per source; he is now an unrestricted free agent.

Help us Bojan Bogdanovic, you're our only hope.
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
Wizards got Bogdanovic from Nets for 2017 first & Andrew Nicholson; clearing Nicholson let Wiz match Porter sheet relatively comfortably.

If Boston agreed to trade Bradley for Morris and they even had to add a 2nd round pick couldnt we offer something better? I mean why would they need another SF and they lost a pick, and they sent him to a team in the same conference. I dont get it. IMO Bradley would be a perfect fit for us and we should be able to offer something better for him.
Didn't once upon a time, Dell have an offer of Ryan Anderson for the better Morris twin straight up and refused. He was productive and just signed a very good contract. I'm sure Boston woulda preferred that Morris since he played more of the 4.
u a bit desperate I see
Indiana has emerged as a frontrunner to sign Bojan Bogdanovic, league sources tell ESPN.

I find it odd that Pelicans are no longer mentioned in any rumors
This Morris used to BE the better Morris!
They like to switch up
Free agent Bojan Bogdanovic has agreed to a two-year, $21M deal with the Indiana Pacers, league source tells ESPN.

Bogdanovic would have made me sleep better.
Sad
that was quick

The Godfather, Dell, is letting the other GM's scurry like freaggin Mice.... as he continues to be.... scheming his master plan
Why? We never really were to begin with unless the other team had leaks. It's not like anyone is taking Dell's phone calls.
Or maybe someone has?
"we might make dollars, but we don't necessarily make sense"
"always be sincere....whether you mean it or not"
I just looked up CJ Miles on Wikipedia, did you guys know that we drafted Brandon Bass with the pick right before Miles was drafted by the Jazz? Man, this franchise sure has had a bad go of it.
His wife? I guess? She probably has to..
