Part of me feels bad that Conley is likely to remain here due to his salary and be a consummate professional knowing that he's not on a contender, but I do think he has some worth as a locker room presence. Maybe he even gets to increase his trade value a bit this season and we can offload him...

Keep in mind that the salary cap has been increasing year after year so $18M three years from now is going to seem like an incredible bargain even if he's around 18-20 PPG.

Small, microwave scorer, not overly efficient. Not a great defender. That said, put him around some good defenders and not make him have to feel like a constant #1 option and I think he can be very effective.

Utah gave him 72 million reasons why especially as he wasn’t getting it from CLE. That and basically being our featured player vs. an afterthought.

Feels like it’s time to lock this thread and mothball it for posterity.

B+. We got good value coming back and I think it’s a good trade for CLE as well to go all-in. We tie up a bit more salary next year, but I don’t think we are on the hunt for prime FA’s anyway. Getting an additional pick would have been an A, but that wasn’t going to happen since CLE couldn’t.

Flipping Bogey for expirings doesn’t make any sense unless you attach a pick coming back. I don’t see PHX doing that deal.

Crowder and Saric would match, but would need a pick as well. Would also create more roster logjam.

Woj telling us that Robinson was dangled yet the Knicks signed him on July 1. Seems… suspicious.

Trading Conley is the toughest thing for Ainge to do. Would be easier if he was an expiring.

The only people hanging around Vivint on a broiling Thursday afternoon are pushing shopping carts and/or pushing Hearsky’s biological mother in a shopping cart.

My guess is we didn’t want any of Robinson, certainly not at $15M knowing RJ would also need to be extended.

CLE is also going to get stuck as they’ll have Garland on a max deal, likely Mobley on a max deal and committing $20M to Allen alone. There’s not going to be enough dollars to go around for a third max. Still think it’s worth it for them to go all-in while Mobley is cheap, but the clock starts...

Only makes sense that Conley, Bogey and Clarkson are jettisoned for whatever we can get for them. Conley is probably the most challenging to move due to the extra year. I think Ainge would jump at the chance to offload one of those contracts for a 2024 pick.

Nobody should be shocked when Sexton tosses up 24-25 PPG next season.

As part of the agreement, is Sexton required to change his name to Collin Soakington?

Great Salt Lake ain't as salty as these quotes.

They have to cut off their pinkies.

Next year is going to be fun simply because: #1 - An entirely new crop of guys - our entire starting corp and rotation may be 100% refreshed depending on a Westbrook swap. They may not be great, but seeing new faces and seeing who stands out will be exciting #2 - No expectations. Anyone...
