Pretty soon the nets will be the asshole in your fantasy league that everyone hates cause of annoying trade offers
I have no idea how that works. On another note, that was a pretty expensive injury Joel suffered last year. At least $20M.
Harris > Miller Murphy > Joel Draft pick > 0 The Blazers would be taking on salary (Harris) but it'd be worth it. I'll be pleasantly surprised if the Blazers could pull this off. Ed O.
No. Joel is an expiring contract, so it would be no different than letting him play out his deal for the remainder of the year. The upside of the deal for the Nets would be that Joel would probably take less than his full salary for the final 30 odd games, saving the Nets maybe a million bucks or so in real dollars.
There would be luxury tax ramifications for this season. The Blazers are currently around $3-4 million over the tax threshold for this season. If they gain $3 million or so more in the Harris-Murphy deal and then re-sign Joel using a veteran's exception after 30 days, they'd be on the hook for around $6-7 million in tax this year.
Playing the Lakers on Wednesday could be really interesting if we don't have Miller, Przybilla, and another filler player. I'd think that the NJ players wouldn't have cleared their physicals yet.
Now I have news for hcp Kenny Vance said Harris is blazers target and blazers want to get younger at pg. I know u love Kenny! This was on lunds show today.
