Oh. He was no longer on the Nuggets?
holy shit, orlando can sign lebron and carmelo and they still get to keep the #4 overall? roll out oladipo/exum/vucevic with lebron/carmelo. that's a shitload of young talent.
Denver has $66 Million committed to the 2015 cap already. That's bonkers.Quote:

Thread forgot to sign into his Jack Sparrow alt.
Ew...LeBron...Ew..Melo.
Look at Poonsie, God you're handsome at Championship level. Knit shirt, Haggar slacks, white shoes from the '70s.Quote:

Orlando would have $12.8mm committed to four guys (Oladipo, Harkless, Nicholson, Fournier) but can cut about $2-$3mm by not exercising the team option on any of the latter ones (or dealing them for a future pick). Cap holds on Vucevic and Harris would take them up to $19+ million (assuming 125% of prior year), so adding in Lebron and Melo at $18mm each, that would bring them to $55mm. No way to get Love added with only $10mm in cap space. If Melo and Lebron were to take less, there might be some flexibility but there would be roster holds on the other ~6 spots.Quote:

It's probably not going to happen, but not impossible...
On edit, I forgot to factor in the money for this year's first round picks. That cuts another $5 million+ from the money available to Love. So basically, it's Melo+Lebron, the picks and the team that they have today.
Afflalo is very tradeable and a decent player. He was so cheap, it didn't matter the ramifications of the deal, you have to do it IMO
I like him but thought he signed a sizable deal before he was traded ...No?Quote:
