I could go for a 2Pat for Papa swap. We could probably unload Patterson if necessary next year.
Not necessarily true. The Rockets traded Lin AND a 1st before we knew about Bosh. This is just a sign of good faith. "We've got cap room...
hey won't. With LMA, Green, and LMA (likely) on board, they will be good for at least the next 4 years.
Papa is also non-guaranteed, and you need to remember that if LMA walks to the Spurs, they lose him for NOTHING. Harrell, TJones, and the Rockets...
Again, it means nothing. Spurs can still keep Green/Leonard's cap holds, sign LMA, and then go over the cap to sign their current players to new...
It does nothing. They can resign BOTH Green and Leonard after signing LMA. All this means is that Green is staying a Spur.
Cleveland has to send out salary to take in Brewer. From Portland's side, taking on Haywood means absolutely nothing. He's completely...
Yes, something like that. If you use cap space, you lose the non-taxpayer MLE, taxpayer MLE, and Bi-Annual exception. You do however get the "room...
Hence the "other pieces part". Portland would end up with the completely non-guaranteed contracts of Haywood and Papanikolaou, and then a few of...
We could use the room exception to resign Smith without using cap space. It would actually be slightly higher than what we could offer...
Was thinking about that. We know Cleveland was trying to get him from the Timberwolves, and they're sitting on that ridiculous Haywood contract....
Thanks. That's out of our zone, so you can take "resigning Brewer with early bird rights" off the list of benefits to staying over the cap....
Shot 53% around the rim, 36% from the left corner, 42% from the right corner, and 43% above the break on the left side......and that's for the...
The difference between Millsap and Smith is NOT $17.5 million per year. In fact, they're probably about equal as far as their contributions on the...
Nope.
That's EXACTLY what we needed. You want teams to make mistakes....that creates opportunities.
It sounds cliché, but that's exactly what you want. Other than the super high profile free agents, the Rockets rarely participate in the "middle...
Yeah....I think this is the much more likely route for the Rockets. Wait for teams to make some poor decisions, and capitalize by stealing quality...
Another guy I'd watch is Mike Scott. Since the Hawks only have early bird rights on Millsap and Carroll, they may need to clear cap room to keep...
It doesn't sound like much, but it can be the difference between getting LMA AND keeping several of our current players under contract or missing...
