Summer 2019 Roster Discussion

I'd probably do $20 for Brogdon.

Not sure I see anybody else in that range I really like much. Could split it up into smaller chunks, Danny Green types, but I'd prefer that as the secondary plan.
Me too, but I think the secondary plan will become our only plan. The only guys I would spend $20+ on:

Harris
Brogdon
Randle
KD
Klay
Middleton
Kawhi
Kemba
Russell

I don't think we are realistically in the mix for any of those guys. So what do we do with $20?

I would love Brogdon, but if the jazz want to maximize talent, sadly (because I love Favors) he needs to be upgraded. It should be Harris. Harris would want to sign with us because he’d have a bigger roll on offense with us.
How good is Brogden without giannis
 
Bjelica is completely out of the rotation in Sacramento. Would be nice if we could nab him for cheap and address wing/guard with FA dollars.

Bjelica/Crowder/Royce is plenty stretch/smallball 4s. Can likely bring back Thabo on a minimum deal or keep Niang in case of emergency.
 
I wonder how this will impact their ability to re-sign Brogdon?

I doubt it will. I think they're going all-in since Giannis is an MVP type player now. If they cheap out while they're contenders, it might give him a reason to leave in a few years.

So you think they'll match even if someone offers him the max?
 
They can still pay the bill if they want, but I'd take it as a positive for us, they'll still have Middleton/Brogdon/Lopez/Mirotic all as free agents with ~30M in cap, they're going to have to go way way over to bring them all back.
 
As of today, I think the play this summer will be to decline on Favors then re-sign him to a long term deal making around $10 per year. Then let Rubio go while picking up Neto's option. This gives us roughly $20 million to play with.

Of course we could try to sign someone making more than $20, but I just don't think we can realistically expect anybody that big to have interest in signing with us over other options.

So the game becomes, how can we best use $20 million in cap?

If we release Favors and the Clippers do not snap him up at his current contract value, they are the biggest morons in the NBA. He would fit so well on that team.

His salary for next year is going to be less than what his cap hold would have been if he went to FA, it's a win for the Bucks and nothing has really changed
 
We'll end up paying 20 for favors this summer.
