At the rumored price they would have gone slightly over, but I'm sure they could have traded Coby and taken a few million less in salary back to duck the tax.

The lack of pursuit of guys in the full MLE range tells me they want/have to stay under. But its a pretty safe assumption with JR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scs787 Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Looking at the summer league roster, as I do every year and foolishly get overhyped about something, Makur Maker is very mildly interesting. Maker, cousin of Thon, is the first top 15 recruit to ever commit to a HBCU. He only put up 11/6 at Howard, but you have to wonder if teams were just consistently doubling him or if the level of basketball hindered him somehow. From what little highlights I saw, he may have some upside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Either Lonzo's knee is gonna be problematic or they're definitely trading Coby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 This is a nice signing. Savvy vet and good move in case Zo has issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ron883 Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Disappointing that the Bulls seemingly aren't using the full MLE in order to avoid the luxury tax. Reinsdorf is an embarrassment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tnetennba Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 If its confirmed a vet min deal, he could be a good vet presence. Need a Coby for legit PF trade now though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we please get a Luka to Chicago rumor because he's upset they didn't sign Dragic? Force your way out Luka!

Tnetennba Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 I hope AK is on the phone with Isaiah Roby’s agent to pick him up quick. Could be a quality backup of option/depth piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess OKC does have a lot of raw talent. I really, really hope they'd consider using the TPE to get him (which puts them over the luxury cap I assume). Maybe they'd dump Coby for him.

If he passes this physical then maybe it'll be a regret, but seemed like he's really struggling coming back from his injury. Honestly a bit like Ball except they've been a bit more honest about setbacks there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
