Stealing Chuck’s Utah idea, with Lakers throw in.

[jayjaysee]

Dallas: THJ, Powell
Dallas: Vincent

Dallas opens up the MLE for DJJ and tries to bring the Miami out of Vincent. He’d be a nice 3rd guard behind the stars if you can. If not, at least DJJ. Trims 7 million once you fill the 13th roster spot - meaning almost to the dollar MLE for DJJ (finger math)… While also being able to aggregate Vincent with Maxi, Green, etc if the opportunity arises during the season or next..

Utah: Clarkson
Utah: THJ, Powell, 2-3 2nds

Utah moves on from Clarkson, gets expirings and gets some 2nds.

LAL: Vincent, 2-3 seconds
LAL: Clarkson

LAL adds some offense to help the old man without messing with their firsts in case they actually can trade for a star or borderline star.

Finger math says if you include Yurt (or Bazley) to Dallas, you can likely do it on draft night..

This is taking on a ton of money to get off one year of Gabe Vincent's contract and that seems like a really bad call.

I don't see the Lakers ownership willing to spend the extra $3M for Clarkson, though, they should without a second thought here. They'd probably want Reddish included, assuming he picks up his PO, to negate the money difference. If not Cam, then Wood.

“A ton” come on. It’s 6-7 million, to save 11.

I thought Powell made $10m a year and THJ $18m.

But this is still the Jazz taking on 21.2m while giving up Vincent's contract of $13m so, ehhh, I guess it's fine.

I thought this was taking on like $15m.

Reddish can come to Dallas. Wood probably would be sad..

It’s 20.2.. and an extra roster spot filled..

Yeah, figured Dallas wouldn't mind Cam to see if they can use him similar to JJr, if Derrick leaves for the money elsewhere.

THJ signed a declining contract so down to $16.1M. Powell signed a new $4m/$4m/$4m contract last summer. I know Powell and THJ set on Dallas books a long time at those numbers so totally understand why you thought that.
