GSW trying to clear cap for Dwight. Maybe we can get in on it with the huge TPE. I wonder what GSW would be willing to give up. I would definitely see if we could get Thompson or Barnes from them if they are really going all in like this.

Theoretically the Kings also received a lot of cap space/flexibility by trading Tyreke. Remember Tyreke comes with a 11m/yr contract now, and Vasquez is really talented, quietly was top 5 in assists.

Tyreke also became lost in Sac after they drafted Mclemore, if they get Iggy I can see Sac sneaking into the playoffs.

We could take any of Bogut, Biedrens or Jefferson off their hands and they are all expiring.

Look like magic/hawks/celtics primary tank candidates in the east


Don't forget Philly....I don't see the Celtics being a part of that unless they make more moves including getting rid of rondo

i dont see the problem adding him via trade to be our 6th man. hed be our Nate Robinson :wink:

Anyways apparently the warriors trying to clear cap space by trading Biedrins, Jefferson, and Bogut all of whom are expiring contracts. Henny should make the move and allow the warriors to stick it to LA. 8-)

we have according to hoops world 19,316,880 trade exception(combined ayon and Howard).

idk how to work it but we could hypothetically could probably take both Biedrins(9 million) and Jefferson(11 million) and that should be close enough to where they can snag Dwight.

It's close enough to get it to work with some tinkering. I would do this if we could get Barnes or Thompson back.

I wouldn't mind taking on a bad contract or 2 for Klay or Barnes... One can dream, right?

I think they will have to include one of Thompson / Barnes because a future 1st wont mean much from team with Dwight/Barnes/Thompson/ and Curry

We are in perfect position to get something done if GS is serious.

We could take on Jefferson/Biedrins if we get Barnes, and they could probably just trade Bogut for capspace to a team that needs a center.

This would be a great deal to use our TPE for. We'd score off of Dwight twice in 2 offseasons.
