Originally was projected to be 108... then 103... now 101. My guess is it comes in a little higher than that. Probably being conservative right now.
Ultimately the number we care about is luxury tax. If we re-sign Hayward Hill and Ingles we likely are over luxury tax. Would need to move Favs and Burks to get under and may not even work then. More and more I think we will let Hill walk... keep Ingles and move on from Burks and maybe Favs (we won't give him up for nothing). Likely go with a lower cost fill in type dwill, Livingston,or collison. I think Dante has shown enough to justify saying he will be a good rotation player. Keep playing him as a two with guys like Ingles and Hood and we can get by. Ramp up his PG minutes as he improves. Maybe we go after Rubio or Cory Joseph.Another potential possibility... Hill gets maxed by BKN and they arrange a sign and trade for Jeremy Lin.
We will have to crunch some numbers here... I don't see us as a taxpayer given our minimum wage mindset the past 4 or 5 years.
