Jazz Free Agency Summer of 2018

If we signed Exum to $7, traded Burks and our 2019 1st to Atlanta to dump salary then renounced everybody else, we could offer LeBron like $30 million right?

Go for it DL.

No. We need to renounce everybody - Exum, Favors, Neto and Stockton and need to waive Jerebko, Thabo and Udoh... then we need to salary dump Alec... this opens up about 30-31M in capspace.
 
With the cap being at almost $102, we have $26 million if we just let all unsigned players go (Exum, Fave, Neto, Thabo, Jonas and Udoh). So signing Exum to $7 puts us at $19. Dumping Burks' $11.5 puts us at $30ish.

I could be wrong but I think those numbers are right.

PG resigns with OKC, per woj.

This, if true, might be the most shocked I have ever been by a free agency signing. I thought there was no chance.
 
I find it interesting that we haven't heard a peep about Thabo's $5.25 team option. DL must be working all options and angles before making that decision.

Wow.. missed out on the 5 year deal.



He is getting 40 million per year at his age though. Missed out is a weird way to put it. Is anyone else in the nba making 40 million per year?
 
I really hope this happens and Dante gets something borderline silly just to see the meltdowns

You want something bad to happen to your favorite team so you can see random anonymous internet posters get upset? You are a strange duck.

Article yesterday said $24+ without dumping Burks and I have read others that say more. What am I missing? Couldn't we use the space like Dallas then sign the fillers?

Doesn't really matter. We aren't just dropping all those guys for a shot at LBJ, Gordon, etc.

The problem is that you get rid of half of your roster in such a maneuver and the league has provisions that requires you to keep capholds for minimum of 12 players. So when you drop your roster to 7 players you need to add capholds for roster spots 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 at the minimum league salary for the year(about 840K this year). So that eats up 3-4 more million of your capspace. Also, I don't know what calculations they are using, so I cannot comment on that. I gave you the calculations with the salaries to the dollar above.
