And that still ain't chump change. Especially for a small market team like the Jazz.

But you also aren't counting the LT revenue that the Jazz would be getting if under the LT.

Its 16,275,228 now. I forgot to include Fesenko which he will most likely sign the QO.
 
You're also not counting the $9 million on the 2nd year of the deal. The only way the Jazz save that much is if the entire season gets locked out (which is more likely than Diaw opting out). It could cost more than $9 million depending on how quickly negotiations advance, how BRI is distributed, how the cap/tax threshold is set, and how teams will be penalized for being over.

I edited it. I only mean luxury tax savings from the trade. We won't be over the luxury tax next year no matter what.

You are also not including the amount of money the team gets by being out of the tax

Locke's numbers show the Jazz saving 20M by making this trade. Thats is half of the amount of money the Jazz make off home games in a season.
 
If I'm Greg Miller it's worth getting rid of Kirelinko for that money. While I'd rather have Kirilenko than not, I'd rather have 16 million than Kirilenko. And I don't think it will hurt our chances of keeping Williams.
 
No. I posted about this extensively in the current financial situation thread. The real savings is nowhere close to $20 million.

Now, I'm a securities lawyer. In my business when you represent to the public that you're saving lots of money by counting all the benefits in one period and hiding that you're pushing all the costs into another that's called fraud.

No... It's called advertisement.

Helping Denver? Are you kidding? With this trade they aren't going to make the playoffs.

You gotta look at the bigger picture.

We are helping them secure future picks to help rebuild their team post-Melo. We are giving them a huge expiring contract which frees more money for them next season. Essentially, this trade could bite us in the *** 2-3 years down the line.

So this coming season isn't the future? Yeah, they COULD get better, but so could any other team in the NBA. Denver gets worse this next season with this trade and it's not a given they will be better any further than that.
 
Maybe after we trade Andre he'll pull a brewer on the first game and by the beginning of next summer sign with the bulls!
 
HOOPSWORLD: Sources in DEN say it's looking like a deal won't go down... Melo headed to Denver with plans to attend Media Day in Denver.
