Draft picks... ??? ... Maybe ↓↓↓

[Purple+Black]

So we can bring in a max this summer or get one via sign & trade?

[YogurtProducer]

My guess is we trade Brown, extend GTJ to a similar # to what he is at now, and we use our cap space on some bench depth before signing IQ when his cap hold is lower.

[artsncrafts]

how did McDaniels get 2 years $9M

[Bruin]

We have all this cap space in weak free agent class. Fun times ahead

Draft picks... ??? ... Maybe ↓↓↓

Agbaji is a 2/3.

PG Quickley/Brown/Temple (practically speaking, Barnes is the backup PG)
SG Barrett/Trent
SF Agbaji/Dick/Nwora
PF Scottie/Boucher
C Olynyk/Poeltl/Porter

Thank you for doing this btw. If our Draft picks look like that I’d be ecstatic.

[Sticks]

FA targets
What a trash list of FAs. So gross

Ideally I'd target

1.)Miles bridges
2.) Bring back OG for a reasonable $$

If Masai can sign One of these 2 and get some value for Bruce brown before the draft and I'll be happy

[metafisical]

We have all this cap space in weak free agent class. Fun times ahead

Who cares if it's weak? We never sign anyone of significance anyway and most FAs do not want to play for us (hence why Turkoglu and Carroll are our most high profile FAs in Raps history lmao)

Miles plead no contest to a felony, imagine a Toronto team signed him? people would burn the stadium down. Also I dont think he is allowed in Canada.

It means we may end up overpaying for a free agent just cause we can. Wouldn’t be surprised if we overpay and sign Claxton

[Thaddy]

I'd sign some role playing vets that were a part of contending teams to big deals similar to the Rockets. It'll be an overpay but you need it for a young team. The starting line up looks good and we have 2 guys in Olynyk and Brown that are high end role players from winning environments.

[bluerap23]

I’d look for us to make a big move in off-season trading multiple picks with Brown and Boucher for salary ballast.

[Kingsway_fan]

how did McDaniels get 2 years $9M

Masai.. the master at overpaying scrubs.... pathetic.

how did McDaniels get 2 years $9M

Also this was brought to my attention recently..

[Duffman100]

how did McDaniels get 2 years $9M

Masai.. the master at overpaying scrubs.... pathetic.

It's 4.5 million. like 3% of the cap?

What's pathetic is calling it pathetic. It's really strange how much vitriol you have.

Simply put: OUT - Siakam & OG | IN - Quickley, Barrett, Brown, Olynyk, 2 First Round Picks

(Achiuwa and Agbaji cancel out)

[bluerap23]

The cap picture. We have A LOT of $$$

With just the IQ cap hold



With IQ extended

[brownbobcat]

The cap picture. We have A LOT of $$$

With IQ extended

The caphold for Indy's FRP (and possibly Toronto's if top-6) also has to be factored in. So that's anywhere from 3M to 10M more.
