Pretty much. But it's still a good deal. They only took back 21 million in salary for and outgoing 28 million, and it all expires after the season. Looking ahead, the 76ers not only got under the tax for next year, they will be barely over the cap.

Actually if you ask me which Center I want for my perfect championship caliber team, I will chose Asik hands down

Poirier? Anderson? Ferguson?

Current depth chart:

PG Curry | Milton | Maxey
SG Green | Thybulle | Joe | Mathias(2)
SF Simmons | Kork | Ferg
PF Harris | Scott | Anderson | Reed(2)
CE Embiid | Howard | Bradley | Poirier
Not a smart move capwise, but I think we're going to cut Poirier.
I read that he could come back in Europe. He is drawing some interest here.

They could also easily cut Anderson, his partial guarantee is pretty minimal.

Listening to Danny Green's youtube interview is really good. This is that vet presence that I'm here for. Also he pronounces Furkan like Farrakhan. We're gonna need to correct that with DeSean still in the city.
They say an analytics man doesn't have a heart, but I ran the numbers and nothing can be further from the truth - Sam Hinkie probably

Not sure that would go over so well if they signed him because he's close with Joel. Unless just signing him and giving him a small guarantee is enough of a favor to make Joel happy.

"And even the other guy... what's his name... Faraman, Farikan..."

"Furkan Korkmaz"
