What's new

You're the GM this offseason. What do you do?

Butler is the overall better player, but Harris is a better fit on their shooting starved team. Probably a hard choice for them.

Nah. Butler is as good a fit because they need a perimeter guy that can create with the ball that has the threat of a jumper... Tobias can do that too but Ben and Joel would likely not yield to him... Jimmy is more demanding and gets more respect.
 
Trading all those assets for a half year of Tobias, not even getting out of the second round, and then letting him bounce. What a plan.

It’s kind of the combo of Butler and Tobias trades. Prolly should have done one or the other... kinda like the team if they had kept Saric and Roco then got Harris...

If they don’t keep him it sucks, but if that Miami pick becomes a lotto pick that’s gonna suck hard.
 
Everyone should use this before talking about capspace: http://www.shamsports.com/capulator

Renouncing all possible players gets the Jazz to $31,279,329 assuming the cap is a flat $108 million. That number is not going to be solid until the NBA officially announces what the cap is, but I've seen $109 million floated most of the time, which would put that number at >$32.7 million, which is what the max offer would have to meet. It's damn close.

If you stretch Exum, that gets you another close-to $5 million. If you stretch Korver that gets you another $5.5 million (there's an $888k roster caphold that kicks in).

So the fantasy question for the psycho capologists: if you were to get Tobias and stretch Exum, could you trade Korver for Dinwiddie? You'd be able to absorb $5 million of Dinwiddie's deal outright, correct? In that scenario, does the salary matching number for Dinwiddie effectively then start at approximately $5.5 million ($5 million subtracted from his 2019 salary)? What salary would you have to match to bring in Dinwiddie in that scenario (consider that Korver's number would count for $3.75 million)? Maybe you could just stretch Korver AND Exum to open up enough, or at least close enough to trade a petty contract to make it work (Bradley, Niang)?

****.

Looney is out with a collar bone injury and Klay Thompson is questionable with a hamstring. To me that sets the stage for Durant to come in and save the day for GSW. We need him to leave and him being the hero of GSW is a major point in favor of him staying in GSW.

Yo, basketball god. I don’t ask much. Only stop intentionally ******** on us.
