Sacto now has a starting lineup of Lawson, Mclemore, Gay, Faried, and Cousins. Run and gun style for Karl.

Denver rebuilds with Mudiay, Hardaway, and Collison to help run the point for the first year.

Knicks get 6 and 7.


Now were getting close.. I think we would have to take on 1 or 2 of those Sacto Salaries for a deal like this to work for all sides.

with the salary cap hit in 2016, Phil should look to sign players on 1-2 year deals so they can accept a little pay-cut for then to be paid a lot more when the cap goes near 100M... I believe that Aldridge and Gasol would do that! ~ 70M more on their pockets

Then depending on who we get in the draft we can fill the rest of our open roster spots/holes with that strategy!!

Matthews also, coming from the injury and B.Knight fit well in that category. They are good triangle fits and at the same time have to show that they can stay healthy and play with consistency in order to get rich contracts in 2016!!

Okafor
Aldridge
Carmelo
Matthews
Knight

Gasol
Melo
Khris
Green or Gallo
Mudiay or Russel
Strength and Honour!

They will... the question is if they can do that without being forced to trade down :-?

That's why I'm worried about the WCS/Grant/Kaminisky draft rumors!

Teams are beginning to take an interest in Royce White again. Is there any reports of him getting his mental issues under control? If he has and his natural talent has not eroded much, he could be special. The man can dribble, shot and pass with the best of them. He would be a good fit on the Knicks.

Blatt loves Euro Ball :)

What about Calderon + Bargnani + Shved (or a future pick) for K.Love?! :)

Than we sign Gasol, draft a guard and sign another 3&D swingman :)

Gasol
Love
Melo
whatever
Mudiay/Gallo

Hoping for LMA and Gasol, preparing for G. Monroe and Cory Joseph.

What makes you say that?

We don't need two Wades in the original and Mudiay.

the wiretap says he might opt out and he wants more money then miami wants to give him. him and melo are close friends, so he's in the black book for sure.

I would love to have Wade but no way would I sign him to a big long term deal, which is probably the same position of Miami.

it says 3 years/20 mill per. if phil wants to make a big splash, here might be his chance.

There's nothing better on the market to hope for. Let me dream, son.

I would consider it only because of the projected cap increase but only if we're also signing an elite big. Don't need to watch Wade/Melo/4th pick and a bunch of journeymen.

Hmm. A move for Wade wouldn't surprise me. At all. Hmm.

That would almost definitely mean the pick goes bye bye. Wade has a definite shelf life.

Anyone else see this Reddit page about free agents and how much they are expected to make this off season?
http://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/2t4bq5/max_salaries_for_the_top_2015_free_agents_with/

For some of us that don't know too much about how the cap works you should take a look at it.

Well, if they're going the Dolan **** scheme route I think you've cracked the code. Draft day will be revealing.
