Am I misremembering though that the deal was offered to MJ first, and when he didn't take it, they shifted to Dunlap? ...Or at least was it like, whoever takes this offer first gets signed type thing? I feel like I heard that, but certainly don't know if it was confirmed.
And wouldn't it be great to at least listen in on front office dealings? That's why I do find it pretty interesting to play a bit of psychologist following along with what they're deciding to share on social media. It's as good a thing as any out there to get a little bit of edge on what way people might be inclined to think about things like contracts, teams, teammates, and the league.
You're right, they were trying to re-sign Johnson, and when that deal didn't get done they offered the money to Carlos, who jumped on it.
