That's the real question now. The two places I saw over paying him were Brooklyn and Philly. With them gone, I have no idea where he would go. I thought he seriously might get 25/year. I wouldn't be surprised now if it was closer to 15.

My money is on San Antonio as I think CP3 takes the money in LA

Hayward 30M
Hill??(how much do you think he will cost? 20m? 25?) Lets say for calculation sake 20
Favors 12M
JJ 10.5
Burks 11
Gobert 21.5
Exum 5
Hood 2.5
Lyles 2.5
Diaw 7.5
Ingles ???10???
Neto 1.5
Bolomboy 1.5
2 first round picks 3M
-------------------------
138.5M

If you remove Diaw and Hill, we are still over the cap, If you manage to dump Burks for nothing, we are 1M under the cap. And we still cannot do anything with that 1M of cap that we wouldn't be able to do with our exceptions.

Oh I'm talking present tense. Right now I see us at about $65.7 million in salary

Right now we have capspace. For about 1 more week... We cannot use it for FAs though. We can only use it to absorb contracts in trades.
 
Why do you think Bev wouldn't help our chances. Say we get it done and then do another deal or use the diff in salary between him and Hill to improve other spots. The biggest holes we had were PG when Hill was hurt and PF. We could get a big wing or Small ball 4.

Patrick Beverley and Lou Williams would take up $12.5M of the $13M cap space we have available.

It's almost too perfect not to happen.

Our chances for what? Keeping Hayward? I just don't think Hayward would see this as a step forward. I can't see a universe where he looks at Beverley on the Jazz and Hill leaving and thinks "we are getting better". It looks like a step back. What's the PF you are going to get to make up for it. The problem with the PF position was that Favors was injured, not that we didn't have anyone.
 
If we get Bev I'd pass on Lou.

I've just heard people saying if you walk into negotiation and don't have a pg it will be hard to convince Hayward to stay.

So I'd say he's better than Exum... I'm not sure if Bled or Ricky move the needle and if you push future assets into the middle of the table for them and then Hayward leaves its a disaster. Bev gives us a PG and we can reconfigure later if needed, but not sure if we have to have someone. Just saying we will get Hill back once you sign is dangerous.
