A first round pick
do it now
The timing now kinda makes sense. Jimmy will meet with Miami, tell them they are his preferred destination, and give them a few days to get a...
Wait and see. We aren’t much in the news, but that’s typical for us. We always seem make our deals after or before everyone else. Peak time isn’t...
I have no idea why everyone is so down. Everyone on here sounds like a bunch of children. There is great reason for optimism. Still think we are...
That’s where I am. It is odd to me that Miami seems to get this amount of attention every year. Like there’s something going on in the background...
Give me Looney over DAJ.
Best case: Gordon, Capela & Nene for Butler Looney signed using portion of the MLE and he becomes our starting center. House retained for...
Not sure if anyone has mentioned this (maybe Bima), but it’s not possible to trade Gordon and Tucker or Capela and Tucker in a SnT for Butler. If...
I’d be a little surprised if Houston hasn’t considered giving the 5 year max to Butler if he will opt-in for next season. Maybe Butler wants to...
“Only 2” doesn’t really work cap wise if you’re doing a SnT. If either Gordon or Capela are retained, that instantly puts the Rockets ABOVE the...
Just for fun. Let's assume Houston does a SnT for Butler, with Capela, Gordon and Nene going out. Hard cap is $139 million. Team uses a portion...
In the Amick article, he mentioned the following as possible targets: Danny Green, Jeremy Lamb, Aminu, DeAndre Jordan, Brook Lopez & Kevon Looney....
Great. Yes, that seems right. 1) 38.5 CP3 2) 38.2 Harden 3) 32.7 Butler 4) 8.3 PJ 5) 1.6 vet min 6) 1.6 vet min 7) 1.6 vet min 8) 1.6 vet min 9)...
Thanks. Was sure you would know. Also, for vet min contracts, do they count as the 2 year vet min or their actual salary when calculating for the...
I was just doing this calc. Came up with a similar number...about $21.2 million in space. 38.5 CP3 38.2 Harden 32.7 Butler 8.1 PJ 0.1 (Troy...
#1 was CP3 #2 was Harden (Steph was #3) It’s one of the reasons ive been so positive about adding him. When CP3, Harden or Butler are on the...
Not a free agent, but one guy I hope we take a look at trading for is Marvin Williams. Would fit on this team. Maybe SnT Shumpert with a 2nd...
I’d be shocked if we can get Aminu for the taxpayer MLE, but if we can, that is absolutely the direction we should go. Gay seems like a realistic...
Oddly enough, the logistics is not the part that concerns me. You can’t tell me the 76ers wouldnt take Gordon if Butler walks and they get...
