Guys, here's our current cap situation:
We are screwed
We will be like 4 mill shy of the tax threshold without our 3rd option( Jamal ) & 4 players shy of league minimum (13)
How on God's green earth are we going to replace/resign Jamal & fill the other 3 spots with at least mediocre players without paying tax??????
We don't have many options:
#1, Pay the tax to stay path or get better.
#2, Fill the 4 spots with mediocre vets & pray.
#3, Dump Marvin with the 2012 pick( You have to include the pick, get real) so you can resign/replace Jamal & do #2
#4, Blow it up, dump as much salary as you can, stash one season, get a high pick, use the cap space on FAs or on trades & come back stronger next season.
I don't think our ownership will go #1, I don't think #2 make us better if not worst, #3 is more like staying path depending on who may sign for cheap & #4 may be the best thing to do having the ASG.
All that considering the current CBA, the new one is rumored to have a hard cap so it can be worst.
That being said, give me Garnett's expiring contract for Smoove & Marvin any day & they don't even have to include a pick.
If anyone has an realistic idea on how to get better in this cap inferno without paying tax...............
