If Deron resigns and Dwight gets traded

Williams
Johnson
Wallace
Mirza
Howard

I'll take that with some BUMS any day...

He's the perfect fit for this team

With a low post scorer he stretches the floor and creates spacing. Not only that, imagine him and Deron Williams running pick and pop or even pick and roll with Dwight flashing and Joe Johnson parked in a corner ready for the kick out pass.

Very good player for Europe, he can shoot really well. I hope he'll do more than ok for Nets.

Anyone know how is rebounding is?

Does this decrease the chances of Dwight Howard at all?

Except we don't have Dwight.

It increases our desire to get him, but does not affect ORL's desire to trade at all.

Teletovic is basically a more athletic Ryan Anderson. Dude can jack 3s with the best of them and yet still drives to the basket and can dunk. He competed in a dunk contest in Europe this past year. He's not an athletic freak, but if you're competing in a dunk contest, you must be an athlete of some sort.

I'm hearing it's impossible to re-sign Humphries and Green now... is that true? Where do we stand financially?

{hand clap}

The pieces to the puzzle is almost complete.

Cue Bon Jovi living on a prayer.......

I'm hearing that we can't spend more than $74mil because we used the non-taxpaying MLE (correct me if I'm wrong local capologists), which is $5mil per year.

We'd have to wait til D-Will re-signs to see what the cap is at but because we have Humphries bird rights, we should be able to re-sign him if we're choosing to do so.

If we re-sign Hump, oh man we'd have taken care of our scoring and still be able to rebound somewhat.

I wish we could've re-signed Green though. Do we know if we still have LLE and whether Green would accept it?

Shaheen · Post #19 » by **Shaheen** » Tue Jul 3, 2012 5:00 pm

This means Green is gone.

Can one of you salary cap experts what the 74 million thing means?

If we get Dwight will our salary exceed 74 million?

No way. Green wants a long term deal. He's gonna go to a team like the Pacers.
