Will need to be at least 13.2 mil to match DM's salary of $16.5 mil.  He'd make an extra 8 million above the 5.

Thanks. Seems like a sure done deal. Can’t wait for this to be officially announced.

Plus he could sign for a tax mid level or maybe someone might throw him some cap room

Bogi and Capela for Gobert is still possible but not without the picks to go with it.

 

More likely Bogi for a couple of filler players....TLC types. You won't have to pay to ship Bogi. Bogi can shoot and there are always a few teams needing a shooter.  But Murray is the upgrade to Bogi. He's now expendable. Bogi is a 2.  Huerter can play both the 2 and 3 off the bench and is a lower salary. He's not going anywhere unless its to land an upgrade.

I can get behind this after the Murray trade takes place. If it’s something the FO likes and I guess would need to be something Trae is ok with.

Both scenarios work for me! Doing something or doing nothing ….

Trae, Murray, Hunter, Collins, Gobert

or 

Trae, Murray, Hunter, Collins, Capela

Even if they want to, they are way more talented than the Spurs

I think he can make more signing back in Italy though.

No Braves tonight to deter me from this so called Murray madness.

If this happens, you have to commend Schlenk for his cap management skills and the way he gave out contracts.

Thanks for this.

Especially for all the Boston fans lurking here. 

They honestly think the Hawks will give Huerter to them for free into their TPE.

Can't for a year and the fact you have him at about $34 million over two years is great.  His max is due when the salary cap spikes, so it's going to be a hell of a contract.

Now remember the $2 million they got on draft night??? 

Thought about that when I saw the mention of increasing Gallo's guarantee.

No disrespect to Zack Klein but just like doubting Thomas I want believe it until I see it.

Damn Rockets gonna need to overpay some players to meet the salary floor by end of year if they get off Eric Gordon’s contract too.
