I feel like there has to have been some good, constructive pre free agency talks. By all accounts it seems like Quickley really wants to be here. And while RJ has really worked out tremendously here already – Quick was the more desired piece in that trade in the eyes of our FO. They were aware of his contract situation and I believe they are prepared to do what it takes to keep the young PG they’ve brought in.
My nightmare scenario is that that DOESN’T happen but I refuse to even dwell on that thought. Big fan of IQ and want him here for the long haul

There must be a deal in place for them to trade for him, I can’t see them trade an expiring in OG for an expiring in Quickley and Quick doesn’t stay, might as well just have kept OG then. Brown and Nwora can walk, I wouldn’t care if they did.
I just hope we don’t overpay to keep him here. I definitely want him back – but we shouldn’t have to overpay.
Winning chips is as much about cap management as it is team building.

I should have brought this up when I bumped into Masai last week. Literally bumped into him at Jack Astors.

The 2 teams we should be concerned about trying to poach him are Orlando and San Antonio, both with a need for someone like Quickley and with the cap space to pursue him
Orlando has a lot of targets it seems tho. I’ve seen them linked to PG, Klay, and Monk in the last month or so.
The draft will also be a factor here, and what San Antonio does with their pick(s).
And when I say concerned about trying to poach, I mean offering big overpays. Theres next to 0 chance we let him go but those teams have cap space to offer a big deal to make us really think about keeping him.
