Not true, I think they can spend 3 million and be under the tax. Not sure tho
It's 500K assuming a 140% rookie scale signing which is effectively $0 given the minimum is, uh, more than $500K.
They can cut Castleton and Lawson to free up 4ish million, right?

Not really, because then you'll have to sign 3 players using that same pool of money if you free up those roster slots via cutting them.
Losing Boucher in free agency also doesn't really clear up cap space for us. At most we might get a trade exception out of it if we manage to initiate a sign and trade.

Genuinely the perimeter defense is more important than big man d, most often players now are driving to touch paint and kick out.
Before driving to the basket was the goal, now it's to get to the paint and force defense to rotate and find open shooter.

We are 500k into the tax, but that is counting Lawson and casleton 4.5 mil.
