Trade Rumors Involving the Jazz

Unless we somehow duck the tax in a Rudy deal we won’t be using the TMLE lol.

We are MUCH more likely to get under the tax than to use the TMLE to get further into it.

With the way the Warriors are going to spend (I think)... the tax distribution next year will be a record amount. I just don't see Ryan saying "let's bypass 40M in savings to improve our 7th/8th man over what we could get at the minimum". Given how disappointing Rudy Gay was I'm going to say Ryan will be really hesitant to pull that lever.

We can get under the tax by waiving Hernagomez.

We’ve been trading picks for cap savings. Most recently a first rounder last year.


Not by that alone, though. This is where the NAW deal is completely problematic.

With NAW's deal we're at $154.9M, the luxury tax is $149M and we'd save $6.6M by waiving Hernagomez which would put us at $148.3M, just under the luxury tax line.

According to basketball reference we have:
Rudy ($38.1M), Donovan ($30.3M), Conley ($22.6M), Bojan ($19.5M), Clarkson ($13.3M), Royce ($9.3M), Hernagomez ($6.6M), Gay ($6.1M), NAW ($5.0M), Udoka ($2.1M), and Butler ($1.5M). Add those up and it equals $154.9M. Waiving Hernagomez brings us to $148.3M.

Once you waive Juan you are at 150M for 10 players... you have to roster at least 13. If you roster 3 minimum guys at 1.8M you are at 155M.

I wish Juancho's contract was better, I really liked what I saw of of him. I'd rather dump NAW all things beings equal, but sadly they're not.
