I heard over the radio that a proposed deal or a deal to be considered is to Utah for Okur.

I say do it, and do it now like right now

Okur wouldn't really help our cap at all.


He makes $9 million, Deng makes $10 million. We gain $1 million.

But he can spread the floor and is a legit 3pt threat which we don't really have. We also do gain a million which is a million more than we had before, money is pretty key right now in this arms race for free agents.

Okur is kind of like Brad Miller. Can hit an open shot from range, struggles on defense...Would rather have Miller back...but if we could unload Deng and get 2 max's, cool deal.

We want to sign two max free agents. Trading Deng for Okur helps us in no way to do that.

We are only unloading $1 million and that doesn't help us get 2 max's.

Losing the money does. No one is going to take a contract off our hands again like Washington did. Losing that $1M and James Johnson gets us awful close.

We would still be like $2-3 million short.

pretty sure we're just $3.5M away from that now. So if we gain $1m from Deng and $1.5(ish) from JJ, we're sitting at $1M away.

 

[sicko]

I hear it is Erick Dampier but I seen that trade rumor about 2-3 days ago and I don't know if that would actually free up more money though

 

[ChIBears213]

pretty sure we're just $3.5M away from that now. So if we gain $1m from Deng and $1.5(ish) from JJ, we're sitting at $1M away.

Each max contract is like 16.5. 16.5 + 16.5 = $33 million

We have $30 million to spend, $33-34 million is the spot.

Deng makes: $11.3 million

Okur makes: $9.5 million

11.3 - 9.5 = +$1.8 million

James Johnson contract: $1.7 million

$1.7 million + $1.8 million = $3.5 million


So guess you were right.
