An asset that I would consider Tyler Dorsey, Bembry, a couple 2nd rounders, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, if OKC buys him out, it doesn't help them with the luxury tax. He will still count against the LT. Top 3 or Top 5 or no deal. We almost have to gamble on injuries or turmoil. Although, that roster is pretty terrible outside of Westbrook, George, and Adams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators AHF Posted July 18, 2018 Moderators Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 34 minutes ago, AHF said: Agreed on us asking for a first and you are correct on the tax. This saves them some tax as well: Dennis + Moose = $20.5M Camelo = $26.2M = base saving of $5.7M which then multiply with the tax consequences Actually, the savings are better because I used Carmelo's salary from this past season. It is actually: $27,928,140 - ($15,500,000 + $5,000,000) = $7,428,140 in savings this season and that then gets multiplied for taxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a good chance this deal gets done without anything being added. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Sothron Posted July 18, 2018 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 Lol let's get their first the same year we get that Nets second round pick, what was it, 2025? 2144? Trading decent starters for nothing. The Stink Process. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have no means of getting a top 3 or top 5 pick in the near term unless you think their team is going to be that bad with Westbrook and PG. Dennis is also not having any real trade value so you are looking for a total windfall deal for Atlanta. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB21 Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 If the Hawks are able to extract a pick in this deal and target 2023 to get that pick, then you may get OKC on their way down as Paul George will be off the books by then, and there is a chance that Westbrook opts out for the 2022-2023 season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 The last article I saw on Baze being shopped was the end of June I think and they were talking about nothing but getting back expirings I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On this thread, you and I are on the same page. I'd rather have their pick that far out than their pick in the next year or two. Should be easier for them to give up too.

KB21 Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 OKC can also NOT trade their 2019 draft pick due to The Stepien Rule, as they have traded their 2018 pick and their 2020 pick (theoretically). So, the earliest pick you can get is 2022. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't be "bad", but with the Lakers taking one of those lower Playoff spots out West it's getting mighty competitive out there. It won't be easy. I'd take their 1st next season. It should at least be in the teens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
