Patrick Beverley Available

Browsing through ClutchFans and A LOT of Rocket fans do not want Beverly traded to Utah.

A bunch of them also said they would do this trade:

Pat + Anderson + Lou for Hood + Lyles + 24 + 30

And some dude named Astrodome on their board dated Dennis Lindsey's sister in HS.
 
Guys if we do a Bev trade we make clutch fans melt in the offseason.. that is enough reason to do the deal right there.
 
He's a better defender... not nearly as good on offense, but there is not a $15M difference per year between them...

True but I don't know if he's that much of a better defender. Hill was important for this team in creating his own offense. Beverly can shoot just fine but he's no creator.

Neither of them are assist men though...

Agree... was more saying I like the value more when you consider the contracts.
 
One final point: why do so many on this site continue this nonsense that the Jazz have a ton of cap room? They are already over the cap. They cannot simply absorb Beverly's contract after the trade moratorium ends July 6th. The Jazz must trade something of value to them. Boris Diaw's contract is not that. The 24 and 30 have little value and would be the logical starting point.
 
I think mle is more like 8 or 8.5 million, and I think that's about what Teo will sign for.

NON-TAXPAYER MID-LEVEL EXCEPTION -- This exception is available only when a team is below the "apron" (i.e., not paying luxury tax, or less than $4 million above the tax line). This determination is made after the exception is used, so a team below the apron cannot use this exception if doing so takes it above the apron. It cannot be used by a team that has already used the Taxpayer Mid-Level Exception or the Room Mid-Level exception. It allows a team to sign any free agent to a contract with a starting salary up to the following amounts3:

Season First-year salary
2011-12 $5.000 million
2012-13 $5.000 million
2013-14 $5.150 million
2014-15 $5.305 million
2015-16 $5.464 million
2016-17 $5.628 million
2017-18 $5.797 million
2018-19 $5.971 million
2019-20 $6.150 million
2020-21 $6.335 million

What? We have $13M of cap space left over from last season. We can use it in a trade before July 1st.

Who said about anything after 7/6? We want to trade Diaw and a pick (or two) for Beverley now.

Cy and others really made me see the light too. I think Diaw and two 2nds might be enough.

That info is very likely wrong. See my later posts in this thread.
