These aren't real moves though.  They're similar to what we did last season.

We all knew that Jabari Parker and Evan Turner weren't going to do anything significant here.

No not really, those guys weren't in our plans. I dont know if Detroit will win, but at least they aren't going the tank route.

Guessing that’s all for today from Schlenk and company. Hopefully Bogi signs the offer sheet tomorrow

I hope the Hawks are talking to the Kings right now about what pretty 2nd rounder they want for a S&T.

Are you volunteering yourself to be the guy that keeps track of how long it takes for them to get back to the postseason?

Why do the trade in the first place? They could have just waved Snell, who is owed less.

Because Dedmon, unlike Snell, is guaranteed a little bit of $ for the following season., too (I think it's a million or so). The stretch&waive rules are basically "you can spread the cap hit out 2 times the length of the contract plus one."

So, Snell's would have been 3 years @ ~$4M each, while Dedmon's will be 5 years, ~$3M each. That's my understanding, at least. (And I'm too tired to look up the actual $ amounts).

Is Bogdan still on the table?

Dedmons $14 million for the remaining 2yrs can be stretched over 5 years at  $2.8 million per.  Snells 1 year can only be stretched over 3 years at $4 mil per.  Less cost to the cap per year but for 2 extra years.  Seems counterintuitive, but Detroit loves to stretch, they just finally stopped paying Josh Smith.

Yes no news and right now its 8:00PM on the west coast. Still time if Schlenk wants to stay up.

[mrhonline]

I heard/read something somewhere that said Bogdan was flying back to the States today.

[Marvin24Williams]

Shame on me... I totally forgot we have Tony Snell

I would really would love for us to sign him ...

Won't anyone think of the poor Clippers?

Per Chris Kirschner, the Hawks are still involved with BB and Rondo.
