Come summer of 2016 we go after Kevin Durant.

We roll out with a lineup of:

Whitside
Bosh
Durant
Green
Dragic
......
Absolutely lethal.


Assuming Wade and Dragic opts out, we'd only have about 8mil in cap space(cap is 65 mil) this year. Unless we move some contracts, we're pretty much going for MLE guys this summer.


McBob, Birdman and Rio are all candidates to be moved, or trading away the pic possibly.

Riley would definitely clear room if Wade leaves and we have a chance at Green.

I think Knicks throw serious money at Green tho, we'll see.

Wade and Dragic opting out wouldn't create any cap space. We're capped out as it is, and both of their cap numbers would rise significantly if/when they opt out.

If Wade opts out, his cap number (his cap hold) jumps to ~ $22 million, and Dragic's would climb from $7.5 mil to ~ $11 mil or so.

Space would only be created if we renounce their Bird rights.

We will not be using the MLE at all this year. All free agents will be on a one yr deal. We will only add two players with long term deals and that will be the draft picks.

When Pat said he wants to go all in for 2016 it was pretty obvious we are only doing one year deals not counting Dragic
