What a beautiful sight. Thank you for your service, Bell :lol:


you probably could have bought him out unless you plan on using that cap space further so you don't take the hit next year.

I don’t know the difference in verbiage. I meant to just over his full 13/2 now and get it out of the way and save the rest

the verbiage is a release means he is will counts $13 vs your cap this year and next year he is still on your cap for $13

A buyout would mean you would take $13 hit this year and the $13 next year all this year so a 1 year $26 hit this year and he's completly off your cap next year. You would need to have the extra money this year to do it but it looks like you did.

Idk how many wins this team will have or how competitive it realistically can be vs some of the ridiculous teams assembled this offseason but I like where the Timberwolves are at right now. 2 deep at each position with at least one young guy that can develop and hopefully get a sim bump before they really need to play.

PG: Murray and Teague with Malachi Flynn and Ty-Shon Alexander developing (he’s more of a combo guard)
SG: Gary Harris and Clarkson with Nickeil Alexander-Walker developing
SF: Otto and Eric Gordon with Woodard II developing
PF: Rui and Saric with Reggie Perry developing
C: Ibaka and Thompson with Wooten developing

Will have a ton of cap next year and two firsts (one is a pick swap option which is nice). Even more cap opening the following year so maybe those young guys will be great value to make a true stab at some stars and make a run.

I think your squad is interesting a fun. Your bench is pretty good and will give teams fits. I might even throw in Gordon into the starting lineup for a bit more offense then Porter. You might piss some teams off by winning some games that aren't expected. Your bigs can shoot too which could frustrate teams and I like the ability to potentially use that swap with ORL as well.

Nicely done. Great addition!

I can hardly keep up with this thread :lol:

But that's a good idea tho. I do have some ideas though on BAF in general, including perhaps transforming the way contracts are structured and salary cap is managed, but keeping those thoughts to myself (for now)

I appreciate it man! Yeah, I like that I have some flexibility and guys I can plug in a few places. NAW can be solid insurance I would think if I have injuries. RHJ can be alright insurance at 3/4 if I absolutely need it. I was considering starting Gordon and will be something I probably will experiment with. Having some more shooting in the starting lineup would be nice. I think my second unit could be a lowkey strength of the team where I can make up some points that the first unit will drop to some of these loaded teams.

I’ll always explore making additional moves but I think there’s a fairly realistic chance I could be in the hunt for the playoffs but who knows in the West. Sh*t is going to be a gauntlet all year :lol:
