Assuming that we're not serious about keeping Kanter and McBuckets, what do you think we could get back for a combo of those two plus Courtney Lee at the trade deadline in 2/18? Then we could put the tank in 5th gear and go after that lottery pick.

Cap space is not that valuable for us right now. We should just stick to him. It's not worth to part ways with picks or Ntilikina, just to unload him. And we don't have anything else

Lee's contract by its own is not that bad. But if you combine him with Noah, you trading two 32 years old guys, that make 30 milion $ combined over next three years, and one of them barely can play nowadays. It would be hard to find some GM crazy enough to make that dealTbh, if I would be responsible for another team, I would't be intrested even in Noah+Hernangomez type of deal.

Yeah, it's a shame. In his interview yesterday at media day, he didn't sound very optimistic. Is there any kind of injury exception to the cap where a player has to retire due to health? Does the team get any relief?
Any money paid to a player is included in team salary, even if the player is no longer playing or has retired.
There is one exception whereby a player can continue to receive his salary, but the salary is excluded from team salary. This is when a player suffers a career-ending injury or illness. The team must waive the player, and can apply for this salary exclusion following a waiting period. Only the player's team at the time the injury or illness was discovered (or reasonably should have been discovered) can apply for this salary exclusion.
The team can apply to have the player's salary excluded starting on the first anniversary of the player's last regular season or playoff game, and not before the one-year anniversary of the first regular season game for which the player was on the team's roster under his current contract. If the player played in fewer than 10 games in the last season in which he played, the team can apply on the one-year anniversary of the player's last regular season or playoff game, or 60 days after his last game in the current season, whichever is later.
The determination as to whether an injury or illness is career ending is made by a physician jointly selected by the league and players association, or by a Fitness to Play panel (see question number 62). The determination is based on whether the injury or illness will prevent the player from playing for the remainder of his career, or if it is severe enough that continuing to play constitutes a medically unacceptable risk.
If the injury exclusion is granted, the player's salary is removed from the team salary immediately.
