Mo and Dan dive into how New York should proceed if it strikes out in free agency, whether a one-year deal for DeMarcus Cousins makes sense and what the Kristaps Porzingis trade looks like in the event of an empty-handed summer.
After that, it’s on to Toronto and Milwaukee! The reigning-champion Raptors get first licks, and their outlook begins with one defining question: Will Kawhi Leonard stick around? Mo and Dan unpack all possible scenarios while also going deep into Toronto’s future cap space and Pascal Siakam’s next contract. For the Bucks, it’s all about incumbent free agents Brook Lopez, Khris Middleton and Malcolm Brogdon. Will they stay or go? Can the Bucks afford all three? Should they pay all three? Is Eric Bledsoe’s extension looking worse by the day? Are they REALLY on the clock with Giannis Antetokounmpo?
Let’s get crackin’, y’all.
