Well we gave it an earnest shot. Portland REALLY wanted to keep Thybulle.

I think I might be a fan of just rolling the MLE into next season. Not ideal but better than just giving it to a guy like Oubre.

agreed -- with omax, grant, lively and curry as additions, I feel like we've upgraded. looks like we're stuck with thj another season, unless we can pull off something for pj or hopefully someone else worthwhile. I'd love to take bol bol on a min type contract that doesn't affect mle as a flier

The teams have minimum payroll they have to meet. I'm guessing they needed to do something with that money if they're not planning on having Dame on the payroll this season.

They were way above that. It only came into play for the Spurs prior to Bullock

Hopefully these guys could practice with the team today. Only two more days until game 1.

Unfortunately that means Holmes can't be paired in a trade for awhile.

Watching summer league right now and Leonard Miller is half a foot taller Manny Obaseki. It is eerie.

Oh man. Now we know why we had skinny Luka. He is going to let himself go now.

So Portland has until 11 I believe to make their Thybulle match official and they still haven't? Anything there?

Just extracting max pain imo. There's a small chance that Thybulle's agent told Portland he would rather play in Dallas and they could rescind the match or workout at trade, but it's highly unlikely.

I listened to Followill's spot on the Hardline yesterday and he made it a point to say that Woj reporting Portland would match did not mean the match was official. He said something along those lines 3 times, reiterating that it was not official.

Something I thought was interesting/weird and just filed away, but I still expected Portland to match. Here's to hoping haha.

Any chance we can get Blake Griffin over to their GM's house?

The deadline has passed now, right? When and how will we know they officially matched?

Can't wait to see hardy tonight. I'm expecting big things. He's even money to score over 25 points and just +400 to score over 30.

Given the block numbers Chet has been racking up and that Jalen Williams may be defending him, I'd be scared to bet Hardy points overs. The smart play may be to let him have a bad game today, then bet his overs in the next game when you may get better odds.

I like the incentives for games played. Would have been higher in an ideal world, but making anything incentive-based in Kyrie's contract is a win.

I also think Lively's screens have been really bad so far.

Down by 6 at the half, which isn't too bad considering Tre Mann has never missed a shot against the Mavs and Cason has made six 3s, almost all of which have been against the second unit.

  • Hardy has been solid. Made some shots, a couple steals, a couple good finds of Lively.
  • Lively has been good on defense, but has not set 1 good screen yet. 1/4 at the FT and had a mammoth dunk on a nice find from Hardy.
  • They are only letting Lively play short spurts. Don't think he has been out there for more than a few minutes at a time.
  • Like what I have seen from O-Max. Made his first three point attempt and missed his second. Collected a loose ball underneath and went right at Chet with a reverse lay in.
  • The starting 5 (Hardy, Wright IV, Lawson, O-Max, Lively) were really good defensively, I thought. It's a pretty defense-heavy group, so good to see they did what they were supposed to do.
  • Don't think Mike Miles has been very good on either end, sadly.
  • Chet has really deterred our guys from going inside.

Good news. Was hoping we wouldn't be seeing them play less than half of the game for the rest of SL.

Rumors that Dallas could be the third team in a trade with Atlanta and Toronto, which would have Capela coming to Dallas, and the Mavs shipping out THJ.
