[Tim Cato] Williams’ camp wants a larger contract than the full midlevel exception. If they want to go to Dallas, they’re incentivized to push for a sign-and-trade. There’s no chance Boston is interested in taking on Hardaway, to be clear. Third or fourth team needed.

Grant had a few good moments in the playoffs however he struggled for a large portion of the season. Anything above the MLE feels like an overpay
Sign and Trade for Luka!
I feel like the most I’ve read anywhere for grant is the MLE so it sounds a little wishful. Harder to offer roleplayers much more with this new CBA. A lot of teams seem reluctant to do so. Torrey Craig just signed for nothing.
I hate that I have no idea what is possible or feasible any more and what isn’t. I gradually learned the old rules over the years as these things came up. I’m not going study for this fucking test…
Sign and trade Grant? Is that possible? Is it a valuable thing for us to do that demands significant compensation? Are there penalties or cascading effects like suddenly your future Ira Flato exception is lowered by 10.1 nanowatts and then the clock starts on your TPEs getting converted to taxpayer MLEs in the RPG? I’ve got no fucking idea.
I thought that we were on track for this bizarre financial apocalypse that meant we’d have to cut salary, and that this was part of the reason we couldn’t retain Grant and we traded Smart for Porzingis on a 1-year. Now we are extending Porzingis and encumbering $30M/yr out into the supposed End Times and we are going to give Jaylen his $300M any minute now no worries.
So I’ve got no clue what is happening. I think we should supermax Jaylen Brown and max Grant Williams right away. That way both will stay on the team and all of the other NBA players will see that we are heavy tippers and think “hey, Boston is super cool.” Also later on when the Mavericks have to trade Luka Doncic because the designated repeater clock is past 11 on his Maguffin rule, we can use Grant’s salary to get a deal done.
Bro really think he’s worth more than the MLE with how much he struggled this season 😂
Give us Kleber and josh green and you can have grant
I don’t see a Grant S&T. I think he gets offered the MLE and we match. And then we’ll see what happens midseason.
