Lemme see:
Blazers: At least 56.5M cap hold if they renounce every slacker. That would exclude them from using MLE though. Not sure they want that. Also some of their own guys are due for raises. -> Unlikely
I never actually looked up Portland. I just went with your number of $56 million. That's why I quoted you. Turns out I didn't anticipate you arguing with yourself.
Turns out your getting bested by a foreigner in reading comprehension. Turns out you can't read and memorize for 10 sec or comprehend the meaning of my words. TUrns out I'm not arguing with myself.
First of all, you completely folded on Sacramento and Boston, so I'm assuming that you're conceding they will have ample cap space next season.
Second of all, you're playing fast and loose with OKC. Looking at hoopshype it's clear that 4 of those contracts (Lamb, Adams, Jones, and Roberson) are Team Options, not guaranteed coin. Second, no one in their right mind thinks that OKC won't renounce their rights to Perkins to clear that $14 million cap hold. Perkins isn't worth anywhere near the midlevel and the team doesn't need bird rights to resign him to a deal while clearing max cap space (if they even want him). If you don't think that OKC can't easily clear $10 million + of cap room for next offseason (assuming no large multi-year deals this offseason) then I don't know what you're looking at objectively.
Boston has multiple options. Right now they're still stockpiling assets which may hint to be a long term rebuild.
Then Boston might pitch their former championship banners, which could result in them preemptively ending rebuilding which may or may not return results for them.
Sacto has drafted Stauskas and McLemore rotting on the bench now. What's the purpose for them to pursue Burks when there's 15 unrestricted who fill a need actually.
Same for Enes next to Cousins. They like Gay and will go after him and maybe other guys. Maybe Dragic to improve at PG.
But then there's the crazy owner from India. So maybe they sign Burks to an offer sheet just to stick it to the Jazz. We'll see. I just think it's unlikely. Also thought you could see that yourself.
OKC would have to decline team options before 14/15 starts.
Then assuming they only keep Adams, Huestis and McGary from their non high level production guys, then they're against the cap for at least 61.4(20.2+16.7+12.4+5.5(Reggie's insiders hold, which appears to be too low IMO. Closer to 8 IMO) + 1.3(McGary) +1 (Huestis) + 2.3(Adams) + 6*.5 for cap holds to fill out remaining roster spots. That also assumes they trade away their '15 first rounder)
Projected Cap is between 65 and 66.5 depending on which source. So you have a mind whopping 3.6 to 5.1 million in cap space which strips you of the option to use the MLE.
If Reggie's caphold is 8(250% of 4th year salary, cap hold for guys that are very productive) then we have no room at all. Sorry but I fail to see where the Thunder are players next summer.
