So, as i understand it
We will have around 39 million in committed salaries. We will lose the following (not signed)
Antic
Brand
Jenkins
Carroll
Millsap
The numbers for 2015-16 are now projected to be(Salary CAP) $66.5 million and (Luxury Tax)$81.0 million, respectively.
Im guessing we will need money for Draft picks and possibly Tavares?
Millsap could get 12-13 million a year. Carroll im not sure what his value is. Korver is at 6 million, Thabo at 4 million.I would guess, eyeballing that he is worth in the 5 million range? Just speculating. Hes not quite the offensive firepower Korver is, and hes better than Thabo. Im not sure he gets elite money, he is going to be 29 also.
We could have basically 90% of the rest of our cap space tied up in 2 30 year old players going forward. Korver will be 1 year older, Teague and AH approaching last years of their deals.
It could happen, but, again, like Jamaal said, if we lose in the second round in 5 games to say, the Raptors (dont say it CANT happen) then status quo wont be good enough. We will need to retool. Im not sure both guys will be willing to give us good conservative flexible deals as this is the last year for a big contract for both of them.
I personally, and its my opinion, I dont think BOTH will be back. Millsap I cant fault, he will cash in and if that is the case, I would not resign him personally.
