2019 Summer Rumors official thread

There so many bigs on the market still and not many starting center jobs to be had. Don't overreact.

Looney
WCS
Vonleh
Kanter
Possibly Noel
Cousins
Noah
Boban
Nene
Kufos
McGee

Seems like Danny is really hampered by this uncertainty about the exception. Letting a lot of potential stopgap big options go at the moment.

I really wish I knew what the heck they are doing tonight in the offices...

I’m giving Ainge the benefit of the doubt at this time lol

All but about four of those are hardly serviceable.

Guessing it's been a fairly stressful night

So, can someone tutor me on why the Golden State Warriors are being hard capped at $138 million after this D'Angelo Russell sign and trade?

[celticinorlando]

Boston was reported to have had a call with kanter tonight. Wonder if that is something they agreed to depending on the sign and trade

Can IT4 play center

WCS is the only guy on that list I would want as a starter.  He's also an RFA and my guess is Sacramento will match.

That list is actually rather depressing.  Some decent backups, but unless Ainge has a trade up his sleeve the Kemba signing is a waste for this season.

If you acquire a BYC player via S&T you are hard capped at the apron--which is $138 million

Just because it's a sign and trade. I believe that's a condition of every sign and trade including BYC players.

Brad: Hear me out: ultimate positionless basketball. No centers.
Danny: Tell me more...

Kings signed Dedmon to big money along with Barnes. I think wcs is out. Cousins and looney would be reasonable starters too. Vonleh impressed me last year also

You think it's safe to go to sleep? Asking for a friend

[celticinorlando]

This team has a lot of what ifs...Tatum and brown, Hayward, Robert Williams...some guys going to have to make huge steps ASAP
