Turner and a couple of 2nds to Sacramento for Koufos
couple of 2nds was the cost for moving extra Mozgov year of similar money, so going off of that similar price point. Sacramento is under the salary floor this season, so the additional salary they take on THIS season, they would have been paying out anyways. They have no need for Koufos, with their glut of bigs.
We add a decent backup 5, and also get out of the LT
what was DH's salary this season? I can't find it but I think about 24M
on one hand, there was a 1-year/24M exchange for 2-years/33m exchange
in the Turner case it would be a 1-year/ 8.7M exchange for a 2-year/36.5M exchange. Even with the salary floor factor those two scenarios seem way out of balance.
I'd also think that if the Kings were going to sell their cap-space based upon the floor, they may be able to do quite a bit better than that as the deadline approaches.
Howard was 23.5, and reportedly gave up 5 million in his buyout. So ~18.5 for 33.
Factoring in the need to hit the floor(not need, but, they're paying it anyways) changes the equation for Sacramento, in this deal. Koufos is at 8.7, but at 10 below the floor, it can be 18.7.Turner makes about 9 more than Koufos, so they still owe 1 million to hit the floor, but they pay 18.7 this year regardless. So it's not entirely accurate to say 8.7-36.5. It's 18.7-36.5.
So 18.5-33 vs. 18.7-36.5.
It's a little more in our favor $$ wise than the Brooklyn-Charlotte deal. Not off by a ton, maybe $$ going back helps a bit. I wouldn't say it's way out of balance, though.
As for the deadline, it's a possibility, sure.
