Conley's wife says goodbye

These types of posts make me nervous. I loved Mike Conley this season. Yeah, the hamstrung end sucked but he made us better.

If we lose him hopefully we get back a big TPE.

I just don’t see a place that makes a lot of sense for him. I assume the market for him is around 20M a year. What team is giving him more than that... that is also a better basketball situation?

Dallas, NY, and Miami are the main cap space teams... which team is going more than that? Is that really a better situation?

Places I see as good Conley fits for both him and the other team:

Boston
Lakers
Miami
Dallas
Knicks
Philly
Indiana - if Brogdon is dealt elsewhere

Knicks Dallas and Miami are the only ones with space... Which one is using up their cap space on an older point guard? Two of those teams would for sure prefer younger guys. Miami likely has their sights higher.

Those other teams don’t matter because unless we want to do a sign and trade we can just tell them to **** off... and they will have to move on.

I don’t see Mike saying I’m going to move my family and take a paycut to go to Boston or Philly... maybe LA but even then those guys will have to clear enough room that they don’t hit the apron.

I just don’t see how the price gets higher than we should be willing to pay.

I would think the most likely scenario is that Mike wants to go somewhere that doesn't have cap space so we work out a sign and trade. In order to get something rather than nothing, we oblige.

I have read none of the thread besides the first post - he is probably just going to his summer home.

I could see him taking less to chase a ring.
 
Really? Mike's made a gazilliion dollars in the NBA and she has to do awkward IG posts that are thinly veiled jewelry Ads?

I guess she does it so she can say she "pitches in" during their next argument.

Maybe he takes the mini MLE from the Lakers but outside of that I don’t see those situations worth taking a huge paycut for. I don’t think Lakers clear enough salary to offer full MLE but maybe. I know we can all sit here and count his money but at the end of the day these dudes will want to get what’s fair... it’s partly respect for them... he just made an all star team... ain’t like he’s Marc Gasol.
