Looking at which team might be stimulated to lose long term money for our expirings but I don't really see any good options.
Wow, Rosas is really doing a great job in Minny. They have 131 mil of active cap already for next season on 12 players only. If they get a top 3 pick they are in tax. This means they basically have to move Rubio, unless they shake the roster up by moving Towns or Russel. But I would not be taking Rubio salary without getting an asset. Problem is, Minny doesn't really have any assets outside their picks. Culver has been a disaster.
Unless Barton walks, Denver is basically at the tax line without resigning Millsap or MLE. Harris is certainly their worse contract and someone like Richardson would be much more manageable for them. But, what do you take as a prize? Hampton? Bol Bol? Pick? Not much there.
Portland is at 120 mil and they have to resign Collins and Gary Trent. Unless they are prepared to go deep in tax or unless they trade McCullom, they might really lose Trent in RFA. Would they take (for example) Green and draft consideration to avoid that?
