Trade Thread #6: I Wood Walk 500 Myles

[Curmudgeon]

I expect the will use it, hopefully on All of Australia. That TPE is $1.2M larger than the room exception.

[Darth Celtic]

Celtics get a $5 million TPE in the Kanter trade?

it seems they won't use it though. need the salary gone to use the mle and hayward or his replacement.

could be used trade deadline

Not really, using the non pax payer mle over the 5m and under 9.2m will hard cap us just over the apron. So that only comes into play if hayward signs directly with another club and we don't use his salary spot.

I wonder how many combined drafts Woj, Shams, and Stein have, just ready to be sent once the clock strikes 6.

Yeah they're all sitting on news the teams told them not to break until free agency officially opens because everyone is on eggshells about the tampering thing rn

i never make it. i like to watch.

The perfect mod.

While the perfect mod part is true, i doubt the never make it part is true.

I like it when they sit back and don't over reach.

Our mods are all like that.

I am back. Back to back WoS.

We are $26,445,494 below the tax with 13 players under contract.

We will be adding another 2-3 legit rotation players and we'll be under the luxury tax this year. I do not know what combination of players that could be... it could be Hayward re-signs and we use part/all of the MLE. It could be a S&T of Hayward to IND for some combination of Turner/Lamb/McDermott/Warren/Leaf. It could be Hayward S&T to NY that creates a big TPE and we take player(s) into some or all of it in other deals.

IDK what the exact combination is, but there should be another few players joining the team that we pencil in for 20+ minutes a night and are happy about that.

You can tell from the sunlight coming in that this is clearly Logan International.

I expected something like: I Wood walk 500 hundred Myles (Turner) as a thread title but it's okay.

[sully00]

Wood at the 4, and Turner at the 5, would be amazing for us. Lot’s of flexibility with that lineup. Those two, together with Tatum and Brown, would cover up any weaknesses of Kemba defensively. Plus every guy can create on his own. Make that happen Danny!

No it really wouldn’t. Wood is a 5, all the way, even at his weight.

The whole issue with Turner in IND was having him play with another big who needed to be in the post and wasn't exactly a great defender. Turner will be great lined up with Theis or Rob Will if you want to go big we are probably all set at the position if this goes though.

DeMarcus Cousins... finally a Celtic! (just kidding, but why not? Even on one leg he's better than Myles Turner.) Someone is going to have to get those technical fouls that Stevens refuses to get.

Solid move by everyone involved. Giving Kanter a choice is great, will miss the guy

Stop. Turner can shoot for a big. Hes solid.
