Agreed about Jackson. Imo he 'll be a bust. Having said that, I 'm not particularly sold on Tatum either. Up until a week ago I was pretty much sure we would draft Fultz. In all honesty, I'm still p---ed off we traded down from #1.
I too was p---ed about trading down, but if it gets us the cap space to get Hayward, which leads us to PG13, I'm very happy to take Tatum instead of Fultz.
It wouldn't be possible to get to max money with the top pick. And since we can't trade for George before signing Hayward, I understand why Danny moved down.
Now if those moves don't follow within the next few weeks, I'll go back to being p---ed.
You don't trade down from #1 for salary relief. Not to mention we could keep #1 and still create max cap space for Hayward.
- renounce Kelly, Amir, Jerebko, Green, Zeller, Young
- decline team option on Mickey
- trade Bradley, Jackson for future pick(s)/salary relief
- stash Yab
That's more than enough cap space for Hayward's max (even with the cap projection reduced to $99 million).
Anyway, a quick question :
Assuming we sign both Hayward and George, how do Crowder, Brown, Tatum, Hayward and George play together?
