Sullinger (2.2) (Poor defensively but makes up for it with strong shooting, rebounding and a decent post/around basket game)

Are you out of your mind? Ross + JJ + 3 picks for Sully? Including our first rounder next year? For Sullinger?? I'll revert to my first question...

Cool. Wolstat is rarely right so I'm gonna wait until someone more credible posts it.

spotrac says that his base salary is 9.5 but he has 600,000 in incentives and the cap hit is 10.1

Doubtful that Powell makes it onto the roster, combined with Daniels.

Both should be glued and nailed to the D-League team next season. Would rather Dorell Wright as our Vet Min 3rd String SG.

Would be fine with Gerald Green at 4M/1Yr.

I'd also be looking into moving James Johnson and BeBe for PJ Tucker from the Suns potentially, and see if they'd bite on that. Better shooter, which, I think we could use in the lineup.

Looks like Ujiri blew it leaving us little money to find a credible starting PF so I am all in for signing Gerald Green

Don't care about the increasing cap, still hate the Carroll contract.

navyblue · Post #551 » by **navyblue** » Wed Jul 8, 2015 5:59 am

cant wait for the moritarium to end tomorrow. there should be a flurry of small moves made to accomodate the signings so far, raptors and league wide.

stuff like boston wanting to make the amir a s&t to keep thier exceptions. maybe we can squeeze a 2nd out of it.

I'm telling you guys Masai is about to redeem himself tomorrow.

Rapsobsessed7 · Post #553 » by **Rapsobsessed7** » Thu Jul 9, 2015 12:24 am

Updated with new cap numbers + listed the values of the exceptions for this year:

Cap at 70 million

Eric Pincus said on twitter it went down from 10.1 to 10.05 due to "unlikely incentives".

I think everyone forgot about DeAndre Daniels, if we do plan on keeping Norman, Brazil brothers and Delon while still building a playoff bound team, we are likely to keep him as well.

Could we get Jamal Crawford (5.8million expiring) for a 2015 first round pick + 5.8 million trade exception? Clippers already have 66 million guaranteed next season plus they added Stephenson and Wesley Johnson and Paul Pierce. Their wing position is absolutely stacked right now with Pierce/Stephenson/Reddick/Crawford/Johnson/Hamilton and they should be looking to shed salary to avoid steep luxury tax. Crawford is still just 35 years old and his numbers were almost identical to Lou's numbers last season. He's a bigger and longer body and he's a savvy vet just like Lou but at just 5.8 million? He would be an absolute steal.

Trade the 2016 Clippers pick or our own 2015 first round pick for Crawford, I mean what are we going to do with all these 20-30th picks? draft more Delon Wrights or Brunos? Plus we simply can't fit all these rookies (4 first round picks in next 2 drafts) on a winning team and it would be foolish to put them all on the Raptors905.

Joseph/Crawford/JJ/Patterson/Biyombo would be an absolute nightmare for opposing teams. A good mix of offensive explosion and defensive toughness. I dig it.

There's no way I would give up a 1st for Crawford. For a 1st, I would want Reddick.

A little disappointed was hoping for some signings today, but still have a lot of time to make some moves.

DeMar made 10 million last season which was 16% of the cap space. Carroll's 14 million will be 20% of the cap space next season and will fall to around 16% in 2 years. So Carroll's 4 years 60 million is essentially 4 years 40 million. You still think thats horrible? For a guy who many people thought should've made the Eastern Conference AllStar team? Wesley Mathews was offered the same deal but 1 less year. Chandler Parsons is due to make 15 million next season and I would say with certainty that Carroll is the better player. Also, Danny Green is due to make 11 million a year and many are saying that the Spurs got a good deal. If Masai got Green for 11 million, many people on this site would rip Masai to shreds and compare it to the Kapono signing.

Also, this guy pretty much neutralized Paul Pierce in round 2, the guy tore the Raptors to shreds in round 1. He dropped 24 in game 1, 22 in game 2 and 25 in game 3. Just for that alone, he's worth 15 million IMO. He was arguably the best player on the Hawks during their playoff run before his tweaked his knees in game 1 of the ECF. Whats not to like.

Also, I keep comments like this one where people just say "I don't like the contract" without giving any explanations.
