Jazz - Lakers trade, Millsap?

[NUMBERICA]

The cap is 58 million. With Howard and Watson, Utah is at about 67-68 million I believe. LT will kick in around 70.





Actually, I think it's still 75% for this year. It says 85% in 2011-2012 and 2012-2013. It won't kick up to 90% for two more years.

Thanks.

I'm not sure about that second part (I know the cap and LT are frozen from moving back for two year, I don't think the minimum is affected or I don't think that amnesties would count against the minimum cap number, but I don't know either. Either way,). So the Jazz still have no reason to dump Millsap (or anyone) for nothing.

On our local sports radio show here in Hawaii, Eric Pincus ...

Ah, that name again. Whenever you hear "Pincus" you can just stop reading. That guy is an absolute hack with no inside knowledge whatsoever. But he did provide some pretty good times on Jazzfanz "Classic" back in the days with his report of hearing rumors about a certain player and trade. Ah, the good old days!

Agreed.

It was just a rumor made up by a local radio host and he started it by saying "Millsap would be perfect for the Lakers to use the trade exception on and the Jazz might not really need him". No legs at all.
