So what might the summer look like? Maybe there's a player then who is set to be available and can be a major improvement? They probably need big improvement. Trades now seem like lateral moves. With a lot of contracts expiring, it feels like they can spend, so maybe someone there would offer big improvement, not small.
Who might that be?
Seems so unproductive to just let Hardaway and Richardson walk for nothing, but that would fit into the general pattern of activity
We'd have 33 mil in space if we let them walk plus waived WCS. Plus that would only give us the smaller MLE
I don't even see anyone we could get who would be a clear upgrade using that space. No Giannis, I think we have to stay above the cap and trade now to come out ahead talentwise
We'll see what they do. Maybe they'll just hand out more short term contracts to meh guys and plan powder it yet again
