Central tank command : the official thread

That’s what I said... I don’t think chances are that good though... that’s all. I can’t remember a team moving out of top 8-10 to cut salary... not to say it couldn’t happen.

Would Memphis move back to get off parsons money, Charlotte to get off of Batum, or Orlando Biyombo? We aren’t in a great situation to take on a ton of money if we want Hood and Exum back. Guess it’s possible doe.

Maybe not moving out of the top 10 but trade another team for say 17 or so and package that with ours to move up. I just half expect DL to work some magic at this point lol. Off season should be interesting again.
 
I'm still locked in on 2019 FA, so the time to take on assets and expiring 2019 salary is now. Cleveland seems like a clear target to me with Shumpert.

Denver, Washington, and NO are all on that list too.

My trade hopes the rest of the season would be to land another first rounder for this year using some of Thabo/Jonas/Favs/Udoh and taking on a Shumpert like contract. I'd also like us in the Mirotic sweepstakes in January, but if there is one thing Niko does it is ruin tanks.

Perfect. I'd rather make the playoffs/finish strong since this team isn't finishing below tenth-worst record.

That brings up something else, though: is it a certainty the Bulls would rather part with Mirotic than Portis? Cuz I want Portis.

I think they really like Bobby and he's played better and is under team control longer as a RFA. I think Mirotic is similar to Lauri so he is the obvious candidate to go, but dude is balling right now and I doubt they get more than a second and expiring salary for him. I trade Favs and a second for Mirotic right now.

I would take either btw.
 
If we held out DM and really moved on from some of our vet pieces there is a chance we could land 8 or 9. Both LA teams pass us and BKN (no tank motivation).

Sacramento is incompetent so they could mess up the tank and Charlotte is good when Kemba is on the court... if they get healthy they could win a few games. Memphis has an outside shot at making a run if Conley comes back.

Top 9 would be pretty great... Having a shot at Mikal Bridges, Trae Young, Collin Sexton would be quite a difference than Carter, Knox, and others in that tier.
