No. Just sign him outright in 2013.

Nelson
JJ
Smith
Ryno
Howard


With what money? If we resign JJ and Ryan we won't have cap space.

Very true. If we could some how trade off Hedo, JRich, Davis, Duhon and QRich, we would have a ton of cap room for the 2013 season with Redick, Howard and Anderson on the books. We could probably even resign Nelson for cheap.


I am cool keeping Hedo one more year then cutting him saving $6 mil off his salary worst case scenario.

I say keep QRich because a $2.5 million backup that can start sometimes is a heck of a bargain.

JRich and Davis have 4 years on their contracts and we need to trade them for shorter or expiring contracts if at all possible.

Ryno is up for contract this year and Redick the summer of 2013. I reckon Ryno gets the biggest raise to about 6-8 mil starting salary and Redick if he continues to start will go from $6 mil now to $7 mil with raises each year on his contract.

Remember when he said after we didnt get monta that dwight felt lied to by the magic for 2 years. That doesnt line up with him opting in.

Yeah, but I could still see that happening. IMO, judging by the aura of the game last night in the arena, people knowing it could be Dwight's last game, his teammates excitement to beat the Heat, and the loud fans, I think it made him realize how far he's come with this team. You could tell it was an emotional moment for him. I think it played a huge part in his decision.


I hope you are right!

Being there last night in the crowd, it was one of the best home courts i been apart of, you can tell everyone was in it, and it was a surreal moment.

YBR's response to a posters question.
YBR
Yes barring anything crazy happening, he loves playing in Orlando

Does anyone know how YBR knows Dwight? I feel like he must be really close to Dwight, with the amount of information he's given and how often they talk.




From TBN last night.

YBR, are you Dwight's only friend or something? How is it that at basically any time of day, except when he is playing in a game or boarding a plane, you can just text him and text him about touchy subjects and get responses?


YBR responds

YBR
lol im pretty sure im not. We dont usually talk everyday but we have the last 5 days. sometimes i hit him up, sometimes he hits me up. It really all started a year and a half with a LeBron joke that i guess was so funny he had to follow me. We started DM-ing during the lockout and the rest is history lol.

Bucks can trade Monta as long as its a straight up deal and not a multi-player deal. BBD was acquired in the off-season and signed around the time JRich did but new CBA says teams had to wait til March 1st to move acquired players. Basically you can acquire a player now and move him tomorrow as long as the deal is 1 on 1
