Enjoy Smart while we can...I doubt he will be back next season
Danny will focus on kyrie, tatum, brown moving fwd (payout big contracts) and fill in the rest via draft, FA etc.
A lot of ink has been spilled in other threads about Marcus, but as many people have argued, it seems more likely than not that the market for FA's will be cooler than other years (especially guards who can't shoot), and Danny will match because we are over the cap, and definitely in win now mode.
To be real marcus wants somethings north of 15. Compare him to players like crabb, james johnson, KO ...he will get it .. and danny cant afford is my opinion
This has been said before but you can't compare this summer to the summer of the cap boom or last summer when there were still a lot of old contracts around, giving teams more space. There is less going to be less money to go around than there was the last two years.
On top of that with the C's over the cap, they will be more inclined to resign the good players they have than try to go looking for good players in free agency they can't spend much money on.
