    I think we will try to move Leonard first, but NO wont get what he wants and will be forced to Move Crabbe, or Both with more added to get what he thinks he can get for just him or the two of them. Meaning. I hate to say it but, Leonard's Value is in the negative right now.

    With the Plumlee / Nurkic trade, I've updated my salary cap projections for 2017-18.

    Summary:
    As it stands now with 17 guaranteed contracts (counting 3 first rounders)
    Total Salaries: $148,464,746
    Tax Bill: $69,975,170


    We can only have a max of 15 on the roster. There are currently 17 slots above.
    - Assume cut Ezeli
    - Assume cut Napier

    Total Salaries: $138,773,386
    Tax bill : $34,513,504

    Wow!

    Agree on the value. If we are trying to somewhat tank then I could see Leonard playing huge minutes from now to the end of the season and then seeing if we can deal him in the summer.

    I feel like Plums and Jokic will be a sick combo. So much elite passing.

    Glad we got a pick. Amazing value for a RFA in plums

    I am fine with that. I looked the article back up and went yup, was wrong, guy didn't do it but almost did. Matter of fact they still continued and I didn't respond but OB decided 3 hours later to bring it up again because he has had personal issues with me for whatever reason. So yeah I responded because it's annoying and somebody like that needs their shit called out

    And there in lies a small dillemma. IF Noah is going to be part ofthe future he really needs those minutes at PF and with Nurkic, Leonard isn't getting major minutes in either, unless they are combined, but then Ed gets almost Zero minutes. Odd situation for Leonard and thats why I think he is moved before the deadline as well. Maybe Leonard and Ezeli for another draft pick to a team needing big depth making a run?

    I pretty sure the person who brought it up the 2nd time hadn't read the thread at all until the 3 hours went past and was half way through it when responding..

    Another team would need 18 Mil in space (or 8 MIL plus send us a 10 MIL player back) for that to work but I am liking where your head is at. haha

    Oh gotcha. Yeah that seems about right. I have records on everybody too. Just files and files on everybody because I am so emotional. I keep xanax and drinks by me at all times. All I have time to do in life is post on this forum. It's my life. My cause. EVERYTHING SLY, FUCKING EVERYTHING ITS ALL I HAVE
