Haven't seen any connection to a potential Butler trade, just that they're trying to save some tax money and Bryant was looking for an opportunity to play. There may be a 3rd team involved who takes on Wiseman.

I don’t think it changes much…they are actually still under the 2nd apron…just need to remain under it after the trade. Butler + a vet min is still the trade package for Beal

I'd definitely take a flier on him.

Unfortunately, we need to keep our open roster spot for when we trade for Jimmy

That's a really good move for the Dubs.

Great trade for the Warriors. Nets just practically gave Shroder away. Wonder if it's because they want to tank, or because Shroder is a pain in the ass in the locker room.

Let's hope it's the latter.

So we end up with a Milwaukee-OKC matchup in the NBA Cup Final. Two of the five smallest media markets in the league. I'm sure that's just what the organizers and sponsors were hoping for.

BRY wants to tank for sure. But this price is not uncommon for a player like Schroder on an expiring contract. I mean, nobody was going to send a real 1stR for him, so this is probably the best BRY can do and, by executing it now, they 'protect' their tanking.
I am interested to see what happens now with Cam Johnson, who is having a terrific season himself and is under a long term reasonable contract. In this case, if they get less value than 2 decent 1stR (or equivalent) I'd consider that a fail, and they should have no problem finding suitors at that range.

I guess. But those are both good teams, and they are both fun to watch. The NBA should be happy it isn't some garbage like ATL / HOU.
