So the Hawks get Splitter from the Spurs and resign Millsaps, but Demarre Carroll leaves for Toronto. Interesting.

I recall William Moore not being a fan of PM after the conference finals so I'll be interested to see what he says if he wanders over here.

Greg Monroe to Bucks Max Contract

Had max offers from Portland, New York, Lakers and Bucks and chose the Bucks because he could win.

Welcome to the new NBA.

Also, another big man off the market. Some team is going to get left out in the cold and we have Al Jefferson in this crowded, long-range-shooting front court and it doesn't make sense for us to pay him next year...

We won't pay him next year.  We'll have so much cap room it's going to be ridiculous.  Sadly, we'll be offering these players to play with Kemba Walker and Frank Kaminsky.  SMH.

Both of which are infinitely better options going forward than Al Jefferson.

Also all indications are we don't sell "You get to play with this guy!" We take a page out of the Panthers book and sell "establishing a good culture, chemistry, etc) and it has worked, even if the signings themselves haven't.

Good point.  Spots like LA and places like that are cool.  But with the money these NBA players make, they can take vacations anytime they have a break anyway.

    • Tetairoa McMillan.   The last 28 1st overall picks were either a QB, DE, or OT. Seeing as I don't think we'd take an OT in the 1st and give up on Ickey as an LT yet and there doesn't seem to be a clear overall #1 type of QB or DE pick this year, it very well could be a non conventional #1 overall this year, at least in regards from the last almost 3 decades of drafts. If we didn't have Horn, I'd be more open to Hunter as a CB at #1, but we have him so another CB wouldn't be how I'd use a #1 pick.  And as much as I love Legette, if we have SB contending aspirations, I don't think Legette is a #1 on a team like that, but he damn sure is an elite #2 on a team like that.  He's more of the Smith/Higgins/Waddle to Brown/Chase/Hill (in terms of role/impact, not style of play of course). T-Mac is going to be the top ranked WR on every team's board in the end.  He is going to be a true outside #1 WR who is viewed as a consensus Top 5 WR in the game by his second contract in the same way guys like Jefferson and Chase have done.  His height combined with his speed, athleticism, and hands are near impossible to find all in one player, there is a reason his generally used comp is Mike Evans (although as he's not as thick, I personally see him more as an AJ Green). Yes, as an Arizona alum I've admitted to having bias towards the player to begin with.  But he's also someone very widely being put into the Top 5 in mock drafts lately and most of them have him as the first non QB offensive player being taken, so it's not really THAT much of a homer pick on my part anyways. If a QB or DE truly separate themselves as being a can't miss prospect come draft day, I'm open to that discussion, but until then, or if it doesn't happen, T-Mac is my pick 100 times out of 100.
