Nope I wouldn't. Losing way too much depth, really you basically have none doing that. Would rather max Whiteside, but it may not matter as he may choose Dallas anyway. If thats the case I guess max Parsons but meh.
yeah I hear you. But tbh, if you get a decent guard with the room exception..... It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world to have a 8 or 9 player rotation.
If this is all we do, resigning the players we can, we're effectively trading Hendo for Parsons. I love it.
If we renounce Roberts, Kaman, Hendo....Cut Montero and Alexander, Renounce Harkless....Sign Parsons to max. We have about 10 million, while retaining Crabbe and Meyers cap holds. Renounce Meyers and we have about 17 million. Interesting. Cole Aldrich and Jarrett Jack? Keep Meyers and offer Jack a 5-7 million per year deal?
You wouldn't have to give up that much. To sign both we need $43.5M in cap space. We have apx. $26.5M in cap space (after renouncing Hendo, Kaman, Roberts). We'd need to clear $17M in cap space. That could look something like trading Davis($6.7M), Vonleh(2.7M), and renouncing Meyers ($7.7M), and cutting Connaughton or Alexander. We'd cut appx $18M from our roster. We could sign both and still have Crabbe, Harkless, and Plumlee off the bench. That's a guard, combo forward, and center. Sounds good to me. PG Lillard (36) / McCollum (12) SG McCollum (24) / Crabbe (24) SF Parsons (34) / Harkless (14) PF Aminu (30) / Harkless (10) / Plumlee (8) C Whiteside (32) / Plumlee (16)
