Jalen Duren could be headed for a max offer sheet in free agency. A cap space team can offer him up to four years, $177 million. The Pistons could match such offers by giving him a high starting salary that descends since he qualified for the 30 percent max by making All-NBA.

The Warriors are hoping to pair LeBron James and Anthony Davis with Stephen Curry. It'll be difficult, but it's not impossible. I walk Sam Quinn through how they could make it happen within the first apron hard cap while retaining Draymond Green and Kristaps Porzingis.

The Trail Blazers have the combination of draft picks, young players, and matching salary to make a strong offer for Jaylen Brown. Sam Quinn and I sort through it and discuss exactly how much stuff and which draft picks we'd need at a minimum if we're the Celtics.

"This trade was an overpay even if the lottery went the Pacers' way." "The prize for tanking was Ivica Zubac. They wouldn't have gotten him without being bad enough to make the Clippers interested in their pick." Sam Quinn and I dissect Indiana's process on the Zubac trade.

Giannis Antetokounmpo could put his thumb on the scale for a team like the Heat since they could sign him in 2027 with max cap space. Frank Madden and I discuss why the Heat are considered the frontunner for Giannis and how the Bucks still maintain leverage in a potential trade.

"There's a 10% chance a Ja Morant trade will get Minnesota to the Finals and a 90% chance it would end with Anthony Edwards playing for the Houston, Detroit, or Brooklyn in two years or so." Sam Quinn and I agree that adding Morant is a risk the Wolves can't afford to take.

New post on Third Apron: The Hawks are on pace to have by far the highest odds for a top pick in the lottery reform era. I ran Tankathon.com 100 times to see how often they landed a top-four pick and better understand the probability of the Bucks moving up in the lottery.

Michael Porter Jr. to the Warriors rumors picked up over the weekend. They have the draft equity and salary matching to complete a deal. However, taking on his $38.3 million salary would leave them with little left in terms of salary to make trades that fill other needs.

"It has never been harder for the worst team to get the No. 1 pick. When the NBA flattened the odds, what it really did was incentivize tanking from the middle." Sam Quinn and I feel the previous system was better for teams that need help the most than the current one.

The Cavaliers gave up a lot to get De’Andre Hunter last year but it didn’t work out. But they came out of last night’s trade with the best player in Keon Ellis and $50 million in savings. They’re closer to ducking the second apron, which could open up trade options next season.

"This saga ends with you taking money off of Cleveland's books for a player they did not want because he hadn't been playing well all year. I don't know what the Kings' plan is or what their vision of success is." Sam Quinn and I did not like last night's trade for the Kings.

Ja Morant reportedly is interested in the Heat. Would a deal leave them with fewer assets for a potential Giannis Antetokounmpo trade later? There are pathways to acquire both players. But if the Bucks' interest in Morant is real, maybe he could be part of a Giannis trade offer.

"It behooves the Clippers, a team that fancies itself a recruiter, to be competitive and make the playoffs." "I'm just not really moved by this run -- I would still trade Ivica Zubac now." Sam Quinn and I debated on how the Clippers should approach the trade deadline.

New mock offseason: Brooklyn Nets! In this mock offseason, Erik Slater joins me to discuss the Nets' cap space plans as a vehicle to move up in the draft and add more future picks. We then use $60 million in cap space for imbalanced trades while retaining RFAs like Cam Thomas.
