    Are you saying our GM isn't levelheaded? I think 12 MIL is his going rate and if we don't trade him I would bet Olshey would sign him to that (after we have another big name free agent in the bag of course). 12 MIL a year contracts in the new CAP are roughly equivalent to 9 MIL a year contracts in the old CAP.

    How do you know his market value before the season ended and before any team gave him a single offer??

    There are some pretty good players in the NBA who are in Hendo's level who make below 6M.
    You've seen Jerryd Bayless yesterday? He makes 3M now.

    If he's a free agent next year, why not? I mean we'd have to get a decent second round to pick to make it worth it. But I don't see us making a championship run this year.

    Even if you add 50% to their current salaries it's still no completely ape shit crazy as you imagine it to be.
    Tony Allen makes like 5M now ffs...

    Have you looked at the available FA this year? Henderson is one of the better players available.

    So ~$37mil of space if we renounce Meyers too? I'm definitely doing that if I run the Blazers.

    If we sign Hendo for $12 mil I'll be furious.

    He was viewed as overpaid this year at $6 million; that was the reason Charlotte insisted we assume his contract in the trade.

    Why? To sign all the big name free agents that don't want to come here?

    Meyers and Henderson to Phoenix for Chandler and Cleveland's first round pick. Would you?

    Yep. Up to $37M if we renounce the rights to Kaman, Henderson, Harkless and Leonard. That's a lot of money to play with!

    How many teams will be able to offer max money to Durant this summer? Being able to keep our core and do that might be worthwhile.

    Or hell, we have another Goodwill buying spree after letting the bottom four players on our roster go, and try improving that way for a couple of years until we cycle into some young overachievers.

    To tell you the truth I must have got lost. Thought we were talking Crabbe here. 12 MIL for him from Olshey easily. Henderson? Yes, I think you are right. 10 MIL MAX from us although I could see another team go as high as 12.

    I don't think we sign him personally as I think he is traded. And I wouldn't go that high even if we didn't. I could see another team going up to 12 with the money burning a hole in their pocket however.

    Chandler has the worst contract in the league.

    Not with a 100000000 ft pole.

    Hendo for Kyle Anderson is my favorite idea.

    If your NO, you sit down with Terry and Dame and you discuss this together. Then you sell a game plan of signing low for long term success. Crabbe signs for 40/5, Hendo for 24/3. Get Dame to lead the way with the team success talk.

    He's kind of worthless in trade. He's a FA after the season. Big risk you can re-sign him.

    I think with his weak 3pt shooting, he has less value than you'd think.
