Utah took all that to get Brandon Rush? Really? **** Utah.
Not true. They are $12.3M over the salary cap right now. To offer Dwight the max they have to clear $34.3M. Clearing Bogut and Rush only clears...
Holy crap. No we don't have to assume that. It is just an option. All your trade does is limit options while adding one good piece. Yes, I...
And the $20M...
Come on, that isn't really an assumption. That Warriors team + Dwight is no worse than a top 6 team. So Orlando is spending $20M for (at best) the...
Easy to add both. Assuming Detroit would do it, you S&T for Calderon by sending Lin to Detroit. Then you sign Dwight. Then you trade Asik, Jones,...
But they don't have the assets to do it IMO. What can they give up to shed those three and sign Dwight outright or shed two and make it worth the...
If this were true, they would have at least traded Jefferson and Biedrins a long time ago. Unless they are giving up real assets (basically only...
Jesus, Bogut makes $14M, Barnes makes $2.9M. The minimum they add (even after amnestying Pau) is $3M over luxury tax. $14M + $2.9M + $3.5M =...
If Dwight wants Houston and rings, he would be an idiot to want a S&T. Just for a few million (like $3.2) more over 4 years he would make the...
I KEEP saying $20M in dollars. That is (at least) what they will spend on Barnes, Bogut and their luxury tax bill for the two, even your amnesty...
That is the best scenario. S&T Lin for Calderon first. Calderon takes less than $7M and you sign Dwight to the max and Canaan to a Parsons type...
No, I am also saying it isn't worth spending $20M+ in real dollars in 2013 and being subject to repeater status in 2014. No, I said that...
I didn't say they were late. You said that getting a 1st from GSW would be part of the package and that has little value. Certainly not enough to...
I would value a top 5 2014 pick very high because it has great value. A late 1st doesn't have a ton of value. LA's entire plan is to get deep...
I disagree. In fact, I think the Rockets could see him as a great alternative at a very cheap price. You give up a future 1st or Terrance Jones...
And if you just want to stick with "just amnesty Pau" and tank, then why accept Bogut back at all? Is Harrison Barnes worth paying some luxury tax...
They wouldn't be re-neg on the deal. They would be restructuring it into a bigger deal with the same team...
So now they are going to move Pau with no salary coming back? BTW if they took on Bogut and Barnes and did move Pau with nothing coming back,...
Well acquiring Bogut and Barnes essentially costs the Lakers $22-25M, not $14M because of the luxury tax and if Dwight goes to the Warriors...
