The picture (and the story) features plenty on The Beard, but the Dallas Mavericks are going to be a central character in this summer’s point guard action: tinyurl.com/yhr27ruw

"Trades are going to be the marquee aspect, because there's a number of high-level players [available] and there aren’t really any marquee free agents," one cap strategist told me: tinyurl.com/3tsj69pf

Saw some inaccurate aggregation about Josh Giddey from this piece. Did not write anything about the AAV Giddey is pursuing. Starters in this current NBA market routinely seek north of $30M in AAV. The 5/120 figure was only mentioned as a low-end projection from league observers.

The peaks and valleys of Julius Randle’s season in Minnesota set the stage for one of the biggest lynchpins of the summer, connecting the Wolves, Knicks, Suns and so many more: tinyurl.com/4s8h8w43

There was very loud noise during the first round, when New York was tied 1-1 with Detroit, that Tom Thibodeau’s job security was in jeopardy if the Knicks couldn’t get past the Pistons. This move happening after a run to the Eastern Conference finals is definitely a surprise.

Another element of this coaching search: Thibodeau was New York’s de facto spokesman throughout his Knicks tenure. His pregame media availabilities also doubled as the New York’s official statements following trades, signings, etc. Not an insignificant part of this job.

Feeling compelled to share actual video of my Bleacher Report NBA livestream on Thursday. Any outlet/account stating I reported something definitive about Giannis Antetokounmpo's trade status didn't note I was merely reflecting what team folks are feeling right now: youtube.com/watch?v=yKoBxp…

I don't fucking know what Giannis is gonna do. I don't think he does! I don't think the Bucks do. I know Milwaukee is operating as if he's coming back, so other teams gotta do that too... I hope we can still update fans, without this stuff getting blown out of proportion.
