    Woj's tweet sounds like code from NJ, that Portland needs to sweeten the pot.

    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.

    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.

    It doesn't work, though. We'd have to give up more.

    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.
