Looks like Jazz only have 8 players currently under contract?

DWill
Jefferson
AK
Millsap
Okur
Miles
Price
Hayward (guaranteed contract)

Jazz need to add 5 players to get to 13
Jazz still have some work to do
More moves on the way?

Total=70.7 M and change. So a few hundred thousand over the tax.
 
So Jazz are right at LT with 5 more players to sign?
Even if Jazz sign minimum type contracts for 5 more players they go 5-8 mil over?
They then have to pay additional 5-8?
That's more than last year when they dumped some salaries?

We should be fine. We'll dump Millsap or Hayward for a 2nd rounder right before the deadline.
 
If they want Matthews for instance that puts them way over for just one player with 4 more to sign.
 
The MLE and Biannual exception don't count against the cap because every teams gets those options, so we could get 3 or maybe 4 players with those, and maybe veteran or league minimum prehaps for two d-leaguers.
 
copying and pasting my post from the other thread and adding a bit:

Still over by a bit. Take that $61,042,357 figure, add $13 mil for Al and you get to $74,042,357, subtract Koufos' $1,298,640 and we're at $72,743,717, then subtract the qualifying offers to Fes and Matthews ($1,087,500 and $937,195, respectively)... and i come to $70,719,022, $412,022 over the threshhold.

Last yr the threshhold was $69,920,000 and our payroll was $72,026,817, so we went over by $2,106,817. Jazz have said they'd pay the tax again if it makes good basketball sense, the question is how far over it will they go? Just for a point of reference, our nemesis (L.A.) went about $22,000,000 over the threshhold (around $91,000,000 payroll)
 
I would say it is about an 80 % AK will be traded and a 19% chance of Memo being moved with a 1% chance KOC pulls of the all time greatest GM move/decision of all decisions. Get it done Buddy Boy!
