Yeah I was just being lazy at the moment and putting in the final total. It's a deep price. The thing is with AK47 and Tyrus and Noah would it really be beneficial?

With that said I would really consider the deal and most likely pull the trigger on it. My concern is that you have Godon/Deng coming up on F/A and by the time the deal is done you will also have Noah/Thomas to try to get back.

Not saying it's a bad deal but the long term obligation of money when so many FA's are coming up along with the duplication of talent make it questionable. I would strongly consider taking the trade though.
