That offer for Ayton is mind-boggling. Timelord's deal is 4/48, by comparison. Almost triple the amount.

I wonder if Phx will have a wink deal with Turner going to the Suns for Saric, Craig, and a heavily protected first.

I’m guessing they could have had Turner for free, if they agreed to let Ayton leave.

ESPN story on the Phoenix Suns matching the four-year, $133 million offer sheet for restricted free agent center Deandre Ayton, ending the Indiana Pacers' pursuit:


The Phoenix Suns have matched the Indiana Pacers’ four-year, $133 million maximum offer sheet on Deandre Ayton, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Ayton stays in Phoenix.

Can't trade Ayton until January, and thus he cannot be in any package for KD. Doubt MIA has a package acceptable to BKN either.

I don't think this is going to end up well for Phoenix.

In other news, I bet you Saric and Craig could be had for nothing, which is probably a reason why Stevens hasn't done anything yet.

Anyone else getting the feeling KD and Kyrie end up being in Brooklyn next season after all?

I wonder what the Pacers do with their cap space now.  Go after Sexton?

We got the injury discount on Timelord. As it stands, he can't be counted on to be healthy when it matters so he doesn't command the big bucks. If he could stay on the floor, he's easily worth double his contract in this market.

I couldn't guess where those two will end up. Loose cannons.

Wonder where Sexton ends up? I would've said the Knicks but they got Brunson...

Cleveland, San Antonio or Indiana, right?

Based on what I've seen, Durant staying seems probable. I'm leaning to a Kyrie for Westbrook trade because the Lakers cannot contend without it.

Think the Spurs intend to tank next year based on their moves this year
