    Somebody he wants to play with in Conley likely goes back?
    A dominant big?
    Beale street?
    No state taxes?
    Closer to his home?

    So if he gets the 4.5% raises, then this turns into about 16.4 as starting salary.

    We'd have just a shade under about 8 mil left in space.

    My guess would be, he is a better ball handler than everyone on our team not named Damian or Christian James

    That's great and all, but we need someone who plays in actual NBA arenas, don't we?

    If it is true Turner will start, Aminu likely is gone. He has an attractive set of skills and contract as far as trade value.

    He'll be the Blazers' bastard version of Iguodala

    He's tough and plays hard. That alone makes me like him.

    Dame and CJ can both play off the ball with Turner on the floor
