Boston Out-Jeff Green/Sullinger/Bass/Anthony/Avery/Pick #6/Pick #17/'15 Clipps Pick/'15 and 16 Brooklyn Picks
Boston In-Love
Out-$25M In-$15M

Minny Out-Love/Martin
Minny In-Bass (Expiring)/ Joel (Expiring)/ Speight (Expiring) Avery(QO)/Crawford(QO)/ #6 Pick/#17 Pick/ '15 Clipps Pick/ '15 and '16 Brooklyn Picks

Warriors Out-TPE/Speights/Crawford
Warriors In-Sullinger/Green/Martin
**Green for TPE would be a separate deal**

Boston gets the main squeeze in Love and clears enough cap to sign another max free agent. Would be sitting around $40M. Even if they don't get Melo the likes of Gortat/Gasol/Deng/Lance would still be available to sign.

Minny goes for the complete tank. They pick up 5 picks and clear a boatload of cap. They would have 2 lottery picks this draft and #17. They owe there pick to the Suns next year (top 12 protected), this would most likely allow them to keep the pick and have 3 picks in next years draft also. Only long term contract on the books would be Peks.

Rubio
Avery
**TJ Warren(13th Pick)
**J Randle(6th Pick)
Pek/Dieng

Warriors use the TPE for some REAL bench depth, they pick up quality pieces that can contribute right away. If I'm Lacob I push hard for Livingston with the MLE and call it an offseason. Green/Lee come off the books at the same time allowing to re-up Klay. We can even try and use Barnes to unload Lee. For the time being we would have a deep team allowing players like Iggy/Bogut to stay healthy for 82 games. Players like Sully/JGreen/Martin would fit in well with the stretch offense Kerr is going to try and run.

Curry/**Livingston**
Klay/Martin/Barnes
Iggy/Dray/Barnes
Lee/Green/Barnes
Bogut/Sully

This trade can't happen as it is not allowed to trade RFA free agents.

I like getting Sully but GSW trades Crawford.. a combo G, Blake had expired.. so GSW has to find a PG backup. The poit of this is the GSW TPE and GSW taking on Salary.. and a pretty decent chunk. Does that make GSW over the Lux Tax line? The $/Lux/Cap part matters.. but so does the FIT Martin ain't a good fit. That can be an issue.

Crawford is an RFA.

POst pone it to after the draft and when Warriors and C's pick up the QO would that allow them to be traded then??

No, Bradley and Crawford would have to be sign-and-trades.

Yeah, this doesn't work. You have RFAs needing to be traded in S&Ts, while also involving draft picks this year. Too complicated to work out.

Also, I'm not entirely sure this frees up enough for Boston to sign Carmelo. I am assuming you have them renouncing all other FAs and waiving their non-guaranteed guys?

The Warriors would never agree to this, unless they had separate deals to ship out Jeff Green and Kevin Martin.

Green's player option puts Warriors payroll at around $76million in the summer that Klay Thompson and Draymond Green are free agents. I believe the luxury tax projection for that season is $81 million. There are also implications with the hard cap, which would prevent the Warriors from keeping both Klay and Draymond, and likely left with only the financial room to resign Draymond.
