What's new

Jeff Green has been waived

What's the league worst in +/-? If we give Niang more minutes, we definitely might get a new record
 
Full agreement except for the "asked out" part. If Green's demands were the impetus behind it, it only stands to reason that they would have negotiated a buy-out. Reports are that he walked with the full 2.5 mil.
I think the Jazz are making it amicable and that a scenario like this one may have been discussed before he even signed the deal. I’m also pretty sure the league pays a substantial portion of a veteran’s minimum deal and I’m not sure you can negotiate money returned.

I hadn't heard that, but I hope you're correct about the league paying a portion of the vet's minimum cause otherwise it just seems like a rash decision. I doubt anyone will claim him off waivers and ease our financial burden. I wonder if he'd still require to be paid the vet minimum once he clears waivers. Not sure how that works.

Those that say we're freeing up money - WRONG!!!! We're eating the guys' full 2.5 mil according to sources unless somebody claims him within 48 hrs which I think is unlikely.
Wrong. If he gets picked up, it doesn't matter when, his new salary will get deducted from ours and we only pay the difference, and since he's on the minimum, that's guaranteed to be nothing. And there's not a big market for minimum-salary guys, so they don't get traded very often on their own.

So let me get this straight, you're saying that because he's on the minimum, if he gets signed this year "whenever" the debt comes off our books? Is that the way it works? If so great because team' sites are already showing interest on the net.
 
Needs to do it for a while and know he’s getting those min. He’s also still developing

I thought we don’t have time for development... You know win now ???

Creating more time for this stiff is going to be a disaster. If we don’t trade for another big body we’re fooked

Yep. Normally cutting a guy costs money, because if they sign for the minimum (most teams are over the cap and can only offer the minimum anyway), that leaves you on the hook for the difference.

You and idiots like you said the same of Ingles. I think I called you and others idiots then too. Once an idiot always an idiot.
 
I really think this is about Brantley. He’s the best fit at the 4 for this team moving forward.

He won't need as much time as Exum did, that's for sure lol
