The mock offseason continues! Finally some trades give teams a little breathing room, and the player agent continues to get squeezed as the market tightens again. And we give our impressions of the process this year, what it means for the market, and get some thoughts from innocent bystander Liam Doyle.

Dunc'd On: 2018 Mock Offseason Part 1 With Kevin Pelton, Dan Feldman, Danny Leroux

It's finally here, the 2018 mock offseason. With cap space down around the league, it's a tough job for Nate as the player agent this year. In part 1, we find homes for the key free agents on the market like LeBron James, Paul George, and Chris Paul. Then it's the restricted free agents' turn to see if they can agree to terms with their incumbent teams or test the market. And finally we get into the meat of free agency to see how deep the middle class goes in this market, and other teams try to make trades to avoid the dreaded luxury tax.

We take a look at perhaps the most "modern" of the big men in this draft, Jaren Jackson, Jr. Does his shooting, switchability, and shot blocking outweight concerns about his scoring and rebounding potential? Then we examine Orlando's offseason, a more interesting one than many realize? Which player should they take at number 6, what should they be willing to pay for Aaron Gordon in restircted free agency, do they move towards the playoffs or continue rebuilding, and much more.
