Timberwolves have come to a deal with BR7.
Timberwolves receive:

Collison - 1.5
Nocioni - 6.7
Sean Williams- 200k

Total: 8.4 M

Timberwolves trade:

Battier - 3.0
Williams - 2.4
Telfair - 1.1

Total: 6.5 M

We are under the luxury tax, so we only need to come within 150% + 100,000.

The Williams making $2.4 million against the cap you have is for Terrence Williams? If so, Terrence Williams only counts $186,036 or about 1/25th the $2.4 million number. That wouldn't get you to the 150% + 100K. Rules are LAST contract in the 2011-2012 season. You guys appear to be using his Rocket contract (he was waived by the Rockets), but his last contract was with the Kings as a 10-day contract extended out to seasons end.

Ok Moo. Well, I have made two trade since then involving players in the that deal. I ask that I figure out a way to send BR7 salary to make up the difference. I probably won't get around to it til tonight though.

AHF and I (Celtics) agree.

To make our earlier trade work, wolves sign and trade Jamaal Magloire to BR7 (1.4M in salary).

Yeah...but to be technical it would mean that you would have had to waive someone on your team (you cant pick up a player (even if its just for an instant...and this would have put you at 16 for a brief moment). Same for br7 since hes now at 16.

So while im ok letting this go this one time, with this br7 is going to have to drop someone on his team to get down to 15...and unless he convinces someone else to take Magliore the dropped player cant be Magliore.

Guys...please...going forward, remember, its FINAL salary, not the best fitting salary.

[LJ4pointplay]

I only have 14 on my team, BR only has 12 in his sig.. although I am unsure if he actually has more than that.


EDIT: just to make things easier, the amended trade is:


Timberwolves receive:

Collison - 1.5
Nocioni - 6.7
Sean Williams- 200k

Total: 8.4 M

Timberwolves trade:

Battier - 3.0
Williams - 200K
Telfair - 1.1
Jamaal Magloire- 1.3 M
Total: 5.8M

150% of 5.8 is about 8.8M, so will work under the cap.

Ah, just realized that I had 15 players at the time of the trade. Yeah, sorry about that. Thanks for being amendable as it would just make things too complicated with the subsequent trades.

James Singelton

James Singelton

About time someone took him. He's by far better than a LOT of guys already taken.

Thought about it with my last pick. Went Jerome Jordan though for an extra 7 footer on the roster. And pending if he gets playing time next season with the knicks...he could end up being a steal for a 15th pick. I think Jordan can be a solid player if given minutes.
