F'ing Celtics. Always get great value at their picks.

Example. OKC now has 23. Trade Plumlee(expiring) for Adams +23. Clears up 12 mil for OKC and saves them 30 mil in LT.

We need a backup point and one energy big now.

Was talk yesterday of us being partners because they didnt want 3 picks and we needed assets to move up. Today Baynes was mentioned to give them space.

Pretty good odds we get back in the 1st round now....probably for the 2nd Boston pick for taking Baynes off their hands and future picks from us.

FYI, we now have 13 players, 12.5 million cap space (maybe a bit more if the rooks sign for less than the cap hold).

I think if Bruno falls to 20, you get back in.

So the official trade was Luka for Trae Young and Cam Reddish...I'm okay with that.

Wow!!! Okay?

OMFG did they just compare Hayes to Tyson Chandler?

Yes we'd take Barrett. Which is potentially the reason....or maybe we're taking Hunter because we need defense on the floor.

OMFG did we just overpay. We took back hill at 13 mil for one year.

Also Biyombo is on a player option this year and can't be traded unless he opts in.

Couple things for you guys to digest. 1) we have less cap room with Crabbe here. 2) the 5th pick is a higher cap hold than 10. 3) In multi trade, over the cap only applies to who they trade to/from not all parties. 4) the Cavs save 28 million in cap trading Love but much more than that in LUXURY TAX. 5) Charlotte is 14 million over the cap if they renounce every free agent. They either need to a) renounce Kemba and trade away 14+ million or b) trade away 18.9 ish million in order to take on Love. So look at player salaries with that in mind.

The gap is huge. Morant is to Garland as Trae is to Sexton.

That's a good fit for him.

Found it. It was Northcyde. He had an uncomfortable number of posts about him.

Who was it on this board that openly pined for us to draft Grayson....thought he was grossly underrated? Do you remember that?

Relevant on Homecourt because of the pick, draft related. Move after draft. Done deal.

There's the ntilikina info I've been talking about. Just the feeler rumor. The want to package him or trade him for a lower guarantee to clear a bit of space.

1 hour ago – via New York Post With Thursday’s draft night approaching, Ntilikina could still be on the move as the Knicks are extremely open to trading him for another draft pick – either a late first-rounder or second-rounder. Trade, Frank Ntilikina, New York Knicks

I didn't....the difference in salary is in moving Plumlee as part of the deal "this" year (meaning 19-20).

This is very old news from last week....also...these talks are still possible, just on hold.

Yah, it isn't a good deal when you consider the luxury tax we are saving them and his fit but the question is...what are you going to do with that $30 million. Do you think you're going to get a top 25 vet to sign here? If you see a big time vet next year signing here, then sure save it...but if not...there is no reason not to spend it on one packaged to you. Make the trade and assuming none of our F/A next year is resigned...here is your cap situation + love. There is still $56 million left. Cap: $ 116,000,000 Tax: $ 141,000,000 Cap: $ 121,800,000 Tax: $ 148,050,000 Total Salary: $ 119,520,098 $ 85,417,988 $ 29,506,706 $ 41,024,090 Cap Room: $-17,651,098 $ 23,582,012 $ 86,493,294 $ 80,775,910 Luxury Tax Room: $ 4,212,902 $ 58,639,012 $ 125,540,698 $ 131,881,327 Payment: $ 0 $ 0 $ 0 $ 0 Apron Room: $ 10,296,945 $ 55,290,397 $ 125,371,585 those 2 cap boxes should be over columns 3 and 4.
