TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

[ItsGoTime]

Projected salary cap next year is $133 million

According to Hoops Hype our salaries caried into next season total $127,328,422

Get rid of THJ $17,897,728

Get rid of Bertans $17,000,000

Total Space 40,569,306

So instead of telling me "we've talked about it before" how about tell me where the math is wrong. Obviously we will have to pay Wood and Maxi if we want to keep them, but the point is we gain flexibility to elevate our roster to championship level.

Maxi’s cap hold is $17.5M and Wood’s is $21.5M. That’s where the options come in. One way or another, Maxi’s hold is a very easy way to get lots of money. Wood (depending on how he works out) is a much harder decision. I’d prefer max extension for Wood as soon as we know he is a fit. That gives us $4M. Then go to mext offseason and decide on Maxi based on what is best for the team going forward which gives us between $10-17.5M more.
