The Minimum FA Bargain Bin

Depends on his current health... I'd say taxpayer MLE is adequate. He might get more than that, but I could also see him getting a minimum deal from the Lakers instead. The issue is once you take a minimum deal its hard to make more because you are viewed as a minimum guy... the Jeff Green conundrum.

So I think we could offer full taxpayer mle... second year is team option... so if he can't get healthy you have a get out of jail card. It is a $20M gamble on a guy who has played 43 games in 2 years. I think Craig gets BAE from someone... he's earned more than the minimum and has not made money in his career yet.
Don't we have BAE too? Grab both those guys then light up a cigarette.
 
I would do Porter and Darius Miller... Miller is a good/great shooter. Not a world beater on defense but just fine there. Great insurance option.
 
Would love to see love bought out and dig for a minimum with the jazz for a stretch 4/5 option.

Can’t wait to see how many jump ship for a pay cut to join baby bron bron.

Ahahaha is the apron only effective with a S&T? I thought we could use both our taxpayers MLE as well as the biannual while being over the apron.

Hard capped by the apron BAE is only for non-taxpayers. We have Taxpayer MLE, Trade exception of 9M, and minimum deals to offer... dream accordingly.
 
Also... the best use of our taxpayer MLE is to use $1M of it to sign Butler to a 3 year deal. We can only sign him to a 2 year deal if we do the minimum... that's why Hughes got 2 years last year. You have to have space or an exception to go beyond the 2 year minimum. So OP Jr. gets 4.8M ish... I think its doable. I want that extra year on Butler's deal... moving from 30 to 40 that is the big drawback.
 
What about Furkan? That dude can shoot. I bet he is gettable with an exception..

I think he may get more... he's in that range.
