Pistons waive Eugene Omoruyi

[Pharaoh]

Yep. This is what I think will happen. Renounce the Rhoden qualifying offer and all other cap holds next, let the two trades happens to absorb into cap space, and then have two spots left which will likely be a free agent signed using the cap space exception and Omoruyi brought back on a minimum deal in that order.

Assuming no more trades of course.

We should have renounced everyone except Burks & Livers to start with! Especially once we knew we weren't going after Cam Johnson.

I'll never understand why we didn't do that - unless it's a favour to a agent

It doesn't really matter in the end in terms of cap holds. If a deal is agreed upon it's not going to matter if they have to wait a day to officially sign to let the team renounce cap holds.

It matters in the sense we picked up his option for 1.9 or so then have to pay him when we dump him.

If we didn't pick up his option the organisation saves 1.9 mil.

Lucky it's not my money

No, even after his option was picked up he was on a fully unguaranteed deal. No dead money on the cap involved.

This **** is weird

Sometimes I wonder if Weaver has any idea what he’s doing.

IMO his option was picked only in the case it could be used in a trade to match salaries or whatever. If we want him back, we'll pay him to the minimum. I'm even sure the player himself was aware of that.

Pretty obvious our biggest problem last year was not enough shooters/playmakers and defense. He answered both. Killian is Tank General everyone knows that. Now that Weaver got what he wanted out of Killian I believe he’s setting him aside for next season. Morris is easily a better player than Killian and I think Sasser should be ahead of Killian. That automatically if Killian doesn’t play we are absolutely better. Next up is we didn’t have a strong SF last year, we lacked it severely. We got Cade coming back, Ausar, Harris, we added 3 SF size players that can defend that position in addition to Burke Bogan and Livers. Our real problem is at the power forward position. Stewart Bagley and Livers? I’m waiting until the season to see what Weaver does with that position. I don’t want Stewart starting there but I’m afraid that’s the plan until further notice. I’d be really happy if we just get rid of Killian or Bagley and I’m good for the summer.
