    Jeff Green with the remainder of the MLE. Another guard with the BAE (TJ/Curry/Johnson), but that will be tough. Koufos / McGee with the vet min.

    I guess if you're really that attached to him. But yeah, he's like 90% for sure done, but when you're trying to get minimum contracts you're gonna swing and miss more times than you hit, it's just the nature of trying to find good NBA players for literally the cheapest amount you can pay them. I'd try it out on the off chance he can come back and contribute.

    Jam Green absolutely moves the needle, imo...

    Off that list for the veteran minimum I would really like TJ McConnell but I'm sure he'll get more money. I'd definitely sign Troy Daniels in case of shooting and maybe a Jeff Green. How many TPEs do we have and how much are they worth?

    I'm also curious what Boogie Cousins does. He's still on the right side of 30, will be further removed from a major injury, and is legitimately one of the most talented bigs in the league.

    I'm a bit surprised the Knicks didn't throw money at him on a 2-3 year deal. If he's healthy, he's an All-NBA player. Even if not, he's an above average big.

    Morley will pounce on any buyout. Tilman will be thrilled with the .money saved.

    Please for the love of god we need an oversized wing!
    That is priority #1 and #2!
    For the love of baby jesus and buddah please sign someone like J Green, give them the entire rest of the cap space!!
    We tried waiting last year for a buyout and that player never became available!
    Don't make me cry!

    Personality issues I am sure is part of it.

    It would be nice to have them join the Rockets. Tucker could go to the bench and Marcus Morris could start at the 4. His brother could play back up minutes at the 5 and some at the 4. It would keep Tucker fresh where he could play the 3-4.

    Also that Markieff isn't good at all anymore.

    It depends on Markieff's health.

    When he was healthy last year, he did an admirable job playing center when the Wizards went small.

    He clearly isn't in the class of his brother though.

    well we need a backup center and PG for sure, and 2nd/3rd scoring option...

    Jabari Parker and E Payton RFA or UFA?
