    And Rob stipulates that they must switch the Team Option for his last year into a PO.

    if he wants that, he'll force a trade to milwaukee instead of us. problem solved.

    if he comes here, i'd have to believe he understands that there's a gs wiggins role to fill that could be lucrative--especially since the difference in this contract is likely to be small, wherever he lands.

    i also don't understand taking it as a given that denver would let jones walk to us in RFA.

    kuminga is option 1, and this makes perfect sense to me.

    jones and rui are good fallback options.

    Feels like the Nuggets are more willing to spend than everyone anticipated

    I think 24 mil is too high for Kuminga, so they were hoping to maybe sign for less. Like us
