No reason to make a trade before you see how the team fits together, we have 12 months to duck under the tax if need be

technically 8 months/cant duck tax after TDL

there are ways to duck tax after deadline as well.

In the NBA, the luxury tax is determined based on a team's roster on the last day of the regular season. So you cant make any trades after TDL to duck tax

Does Mamukelashvili mean "big fish" in idiomatic Georgian?

lol the volume 3 point shooting is actually quite impressive

3.2 makes PER 36 from 3 on 37.1% is elite for a C

Anyone's guess whether it translates over on a larger sample size and extended mins though

can't they just waive Lawson before January?

no with Temple and Mamu we are now at ~188M with a roster of 14 man. We can technically drop Battle and replace w/ 2nd round contract but i wouldnt do that

At the 2021 draft combine, these were his measurements:

6'9 w/o shoes, 7'1.25 wingspan, 8'10.5 standing reach, 239.8 lbs

tell that to the miami heat. they waived a player before end of season knowing he would get claimed to duck tax

my point being there are ways post deadline to duck tax. the deadline isnt when the tax is calculated.

i would wager 80% of contracts so far this year have a player option

people on here just complain for the sake of complaining
