One more note about Reddish/McBride (instead of Noel or Burks).  Both Burks and Noel were rotation players last season.  So sending out either creates a hole in their rotation.  Neither Reddish nor McBride got much burn in NY.  If we were the team contemplating what we were going to send out for a player in a S&T, we would definitely want it to be players outside the rotation.  I suspect the same is true for NY.

If it ends up being Reddish and McBride, here is the roster:

Bigs:  Wood/Maxi/Powell
Big Wings:  DFS/Reddish/Bertans
Small Wings: Bullock/THJ/Green/Frank/Pinson
Ball Handlers:  Luka/SD/McBride/Hardy

That's 15 if Hardy makes the roster and 14 if he is a two-way.  We'd be at $166.5mm of salary for that 15 or $17.5mm into the tax.  Does anyone believe we'd spend the TP-MLE?
