Welcome to the exciting world of NBA capology. NBA Fanhouse reports:
Bucks Keeping Sessions?
[T]he Mavericks are discussing a deal to send Greg Buckner to Milwaukee. Buckner is a great little asset right now: he’s on the books for $8.2 million over two seasons. But only $2 million of that is guaranteed. If his team waives him by November 30, Buckner is only owed $1 million this season -- and that applies to the cap space he takes up.
DB.com proposes Buckner to Milwaukee for veteran big Kurt Thomas, who could certainly help the Mavs. The trade (and a waiving of Buckner by the Bucks) would allow Milwaukee to match the Sessions offer without exceeding the luxury tax thresold. The Bucks have until the end of Friday to make a decision on Sessions.
Bottom line: the T'Wolves might be back on the market for a point guard. Earlier this week the T'Wolves did swing an under the radar trade for former Hornet Antonio Daniels (the sixth seventh point guard they have gone after this offseason, for those keeping score at home). Perhaps the T'Wolves heard rumblings that the Bucks would try to keep Sessions, and pursued Daniels as a replacement. Or maybe new GM David Kahn thinks the NBA is a 6'3'' and under league.
Lost in all of these moves is this question: why don’t the T’Wolves just commit to developing Jonny Flynn. He’s a very solid prospect. And if David Kahn doesn’t agree, why did he draft Flynn?
