oh, I’ve been preaching the “Luka I still young approach” for 4 straight years now. No argument there. 

don’t think the conversation is about whether or not it’s appropriate to add a rookie, I think it’s about whether it’s worth cutting a better player than that rookie in order to create his roster spot. And, to double up on tax for the privilege. 

we’ll see!

Think big picture. One year tax won´t hurt as much as a potential repeater tax next year. This year they cannot avoid the tax if they want to stay competitive. But If they actually nail the draft pick and develop another big or big wing they can replace Kleber/Powell for cheap.
