They could extend Keldon without rushing the ATL trade or pulling the QO from Lonnie. These are moves made to create immediate cap room. For what reason, I'm not sure yet.
Look at who is available:

Harden? No
Beal? No
LaVine? I would have said yes if we had Murray, but hes staying in Chi for the max.
Ayton? There's certainly smoke here.
Miles Bridges? Can he sign a contract from jail?
Brunson? Knicks.
Chris Boucher? Who?
Bruce Brown? You don't create cap space for Bruce Brown.
Jusuf Nurkic? Consolation prize to Ayton? We can have all the injury prone Portland posts. Can someone get Greg Oden, Bill Walton and Sam Bowie on the line?
Collin Sexton? This is who I would like to sign along with Ayton.

There just arent that many targets.

I think they are probably freeing up cap room to take on bad contracts via trade with more draft capital attached but well see.

Too bad the Nets don't have any draft Capital to add to that front running sip's contract.

Spurs could be a 3rd team in a potential Durant deal. I believe SA and Indy are the only teams with significant $ left.

You can extend him whenever, I believe. Bird rights and so on and so forth but traditionally make all your deals then if you need to bust over the cap to re-sign/extend its allowed up till the lux tax cap and the penalties kick in if you go over that?

Meh. Best of luck Lonnie.

America's destiny is not of our own choosing. We did not seek nor did we provoke an assault on our freedom and our way of life. We did not expect nor did we invite a confrontation with evil. Yet the true measure of a people's strength is how they rise to master that moment when it does arrive.

The Athletic was spitballing a trade of Durant for Ayton and Bridges.

I doubt we see much action outside of draft capital building. No point in spending money if you are tanking.

Patty re-signed in BK.

Would have to be 1sts too. But that's what I thought the package would look like.

So the lakers replaced Monk with Lonnie?? I know Lonnie made some strides at the end of last season, but I doubt he does well in the pressure cooker of LA. He always seemed like he was in his own head half the time

LAL is the worst place for him to go. Hope he does well but it might get ugly.

Patty getting his 120% raise that was probably wink wink last year. Also makes it that much harder for Brooklyn to S&T for Ayton, because taking on a S&T gives you a hard cap.

Some Spurs fans wanted the Spurs to make a run at Mo.

Free-agent center Mo Bamba is staying with the Orlando Magic on a two-year, $21 million deal, Yahoo Sports' Chris Haynes reported Thursday.

Bamba, 24, averaged 10.6 points, 8.1 rebounds and 1.7 blocks across 71 games (69 starts) for Orlando last season all career highs.

Yeah but if they feel like the Suns wont match, then we are on the hook for that deal. i like Ayton, and he's young enough to still fit our re-build timeline, but it just doesnt feel like he fits their plans. but thats just me.

Spurs gotta do something with the $37million in cap room they have, right?
Enzo The Baker

They have to use 90% of the cap which is roughly $17MM more I believe.

Klay makes 40mm 2y
Gobert 38mm 4yl
Tobias 37.6 2yl
Kyrie 37 1y
Simmons 35.5 3y
Pascal 35.5 2yl
