    I've heard it on good authority Paul George has a bigger prodding center than Hibbert.

    I agree, Lopez is a better player right now than Hibbert, and wouldn't cost 15 million. Hibbert is just a name some people get excited about because he had a good series one time.

    Lopez will get a multi year 10 mil+ offer. Actually Hibbert would be a savings

    Henderson and Kaman to GS
    Hibbert to Portland
    Lee to Indiana

    Not for sure if we can somehow put Luke Ridnour in the trade.

    I read hibbert has an additional $2.3million trade kicker. does the acquiring team have to absorb the additional cap hit?

    Hibbert's current contract is 15 million. And I don't see why Lopez is suddenly such an hot item. He's basically the same player he's always been, and we got him for scraps last year.

    It's only a bonus that isn't applied to cap

    It is applied to the cap.

    The bonus is divided evenly among the years of the contract. $5M kicker, 5 year contract adds $1M per year to his cap hit. The $1M is true for a team receiving him in trade.

    That does seem to make sense. Taking for granted that Indiana wants/is okay with Lee since they're presumably pursuing this, Portland gets a good big man on a one-year deal and Golden State gets immediate cap relief (releasing Kaman's non-guaranteed contract) and Henderson on a one-year deal (it's been mentioned that Golden State doesn't want to add salary beyond next year in return for Lee).

    It's for one year. Lopez would make at least 8 mil per, because what's going around the league. Most likely it will be at least 4 years 36 mil. Last time I checked 36 mil is more than 15

    Seems like a no-brainer rental for a year at the very least if that is the price that gets it done. However, this basically guarantees that GS gets to keep Drymond Green. So in a sense we are helping them the most.

    I obviously meant that the Warriors were unbiased towards Hibbert. Sheesh, man.

    How expensive a player is usually referred to on a per year basis.

    They can keep Green regardless of whether they dump Lee. Dropping salary is to avoid a gigantic luxury tax bill (one that Warriors' owner Joe Lacob said he will pay if necessary, but would prefer not to especially considering Lee would like to start somewhere else).
