Not trying to troll here, but...
What are the scenarios if DJJ gets bought away on a "Bruce Brown" deal and THJ is removed for air?
Using Hoop Hype date, that put's payroll at ~$158.7M, if you guarantee both Exum (6/22) and Hardy (6/30). Waiving both will get you another $5.2M ($3.1M and $2.1M respectively). Either way, well below the LT of $171.3M and well below the 1st apron of $178.6M.
It also opens up more FA signing opportunities, like SnT, doesn't it?
Don't get me wrong, I'd love to keep the gang together for another run, but I have an itchy feeling that DJJ is going to get a "godfather" offer he can't refuse, and not by DAL.
