Collins would only make sense for CHI if they lose Pat/Shed salary otherwise. Resigning Derozan+Pat will put them right up against the tax. Even if Pat is gone, I don't think they trade for Collins.

Clarkson for Lonzo, however, does make sense for them salary wise.

Its much more likely if Pat walks and they might even use it as the justification to let Pat walk if they are afraid to pay him. Could also add Carter to help the salary.

JC for Lonzo makes sense too for salary but not necessarily for roster depending on what they do with Lavine.
 
We will have around 37.5M in salary cap space. Assuming 17-17.5M of that goes towards a Lauri R&E we could sign someone to a 20M/yr contract or a couple for 10M/yr, etc. I think I’d be extra active in the trade market taking salary from teams looking to shed it for asset(s).

Wait are you going team tank now? That's some Presti level cap management.
 
I also dont think the Jazz want to dump Clarkson for just an expiring. Given his excellent home game play last year, I'm sure they think he can recoup his value this season with a permanent bench role.

That along with he lower salary I’m confident they can get positive value for him.

After more thought….Collins could make sense to the Bulls. It’s too bad he had a catastrophic start to the season. If he starts next season the way he ended this season there could be some interest. His raw numbers were actually fantastic in 2024.

I wonder if we could work a sign and trade with CHI. Williams + Lonzo for Collins and stuff.
 
This Celtics vs pacers series just doesn't do much for me. I just get a meh feeling as I watch it.
Not sure why
