Sa(r)ver accidentally spends some money.

By signing some assistants... And picking up Gentry for a year.

Damn it must have been a mistake!

You can bet though that Gentry is gone if he doesn't get his contract renegotiated a year from now, after last season Sarver shouldn't break the bank giving him an extension but he should not be the 3rd lowest payed coach in the NBA which iirc he currently is.

Ya, I kind of wonder if keeping Gentry syncs up with Nash's last year. Then both are gone after next year and the complete rebuild or perhaps sale of the team can take place.

Where would Nash go though? I'm guessing if he did leave the Lakers would just sign him.

Not sure I thought he signed a 2 year contract a year back which leaves him with one more year. I'm sure DoK knows the details.

You're correct Nash has two more years on his deal and unless he raises demanding a trade Sarver isn't trading his meal ticket, my guess is Nash retires once the contract is up, he doesn't seem like he has any interest in taking a huge paycut and becoming a bench player on a contending team.

Yea I bet he ends up TNT or ESPN. Seems like he's been trying to prepare for a sportscasting career.

Thanks, I thought he just had one year left. Anyway, more tutoring/practice for Dragic.
