All Things Whiteside

[EGame]

If Mavs dont sign him asap like Woj seems to insist, our chances to at least talk to him increase imo.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

I don't get it man.

Taxes. He's a businessman who plays basketball.

 

[EGame]

David Aldridge just said on NBA TV that as far as he knows we still have a meeting with Whiteside. Of course, things can change.

He also just said we will probably throw the max at Parsons....

At least SOMEONE is talking about us.

miami only offered him 4/80 (dont ask how I know). pretty sure he wants five years which is why he will go to dallas or here

 

[santeesioux]

David Aldridge just got fooled by a fake Stein account saying Dallas has signed Whiteside, lol.

Are you Hassan Whiteside? Blink once for "yes" and twice for "no". I won't tell anyone.

On second thought, the last time we played this once or twice game it didn't end well for this franchise.

I'm not doubting you, just curious about your sources. I wish I had sources besides this forum!

 

[Nikolokolus]

I'm trying to look at Dallas/Portland as neutral as I can and I still haven't come up with one reason outside of $ as to why Dallas is the better option.

Weather (if you like the heat), nightlife, not as lilly white, not as many hippies/hipsters.

These things are rarely just about basketball.

 

[Sinobas]

He should agree to terms with Dallas verbally then come here. This can become an annual thing for Dallas, with players punking them in free agency.

We're being ignored in the whole Whiteside conversation which is making me kind of nervous.

It's free agency, were always ignored...

With the offer to Parsons, that ship may have sailed.

We can withdraw our offer at anytime since he didn't agree I assume.

Yes but if you ever want to get a big free agent in the future you don't dare do that. Agents would stear clients away. A player would think he is next at getting dumped after offer was delivered.

If they want us to stand around holding our dicks until Monday, it's not our fault if we start talking to other people.

well fuck. Thats just awesome.

Yeah but we were being ignored in the Whiteside discussion all day. I was listening to every sports show on Serius radio and never heard our name mentioned. It was always Dallas and Miami. Maybe we will find out later who out plan A really was.

 

[illmatic99]

This dude is actually having meeting sat 2 AM

That's not that late for South Beach.

 

[Natebishop3]

So I would love to know if we are still meeting with him tomorrow.

 

[illmatic99]

Well it is for me. I have work in 6 hrs.

@PtldPlatypus How much money would we have to trade away to receive Whiteside in a sign and trade if we were over the cap?

 

[illmatic99]

@PtldPlatypus How much money would we have to trade away to receive Whiteside in a sign and trade if we were over the cap?

We need 22 mil for Whiteside. We had 24 mil of space. We spent 22 on Parsons.

That leaves 2. We can create about 15 more if we let Hark and Leonard Walk. That's 17.

Need to get rid of about 5. Either Aminu or Davis should do it. Not sure I want to, however.

If we are over the cap? We would have to trade 22 million.

A couple days ago he was saying it's based on the previous years salary or cap hold. 150% or something..

If we're over the cap, our outgoing salaries have to be within 50% of the value of the outgoing salaries to the incoming salaries OR $5M, whichever is less. So in the case of trying to bring in $22M, we'd have to send out at least $17M.

But sign and trading Leonard for $17M wouldn't work?

 

[PtldPlatypus]

No, because the base year compensation rule would only make our outgoing salary on that deal 8.5M.
