The same Plan again like last Season

[Boob-No-More]

There is nothing wrong with being a taxpayer for a year.

Yep, it's the repeat offender penalties you want to avoid. Which why dumping Vonleh at the trade deadline was 100% the right thing to do. He wasn't even playing, and with Nurk's extension looming, it would have been stupid and irresponsible not to do so.

I would have been Doc Rivers stupid (like overpaying his own kid by several million to push the team into tax payer status by a couple hundred grand). There are reasons why Doc is no longer (and never should have been ) an NBA GM. Irresponsible cap management is the most glaring. Just look at the Clippers now. They have lost all of their stars, are still $10 million over the cap and are paying Damilo Galinari $22 million a year for the next two seasons.

What is it they say about throwing stones while living in a glass house? Neil isn't exactly the epitome of super cap manager. He's paying Leonard/ET/Harkless $40 million and has $5 mil in dead cap. We have one of the worst managed salary caps in the league. Just because we avoided the tax last year doesn't immediately qualify us as a well managed team.

Where did I say that? Being better than the worst isn't the same thing as being the best, or even good, at something. I was just pointing out it's stupid (Doc Rivers stupid) to enter year 1 of a repeat offender situation when it's easily avoidable.

I believe cutting PapaG and stretching Meyers for 5 years (rough estimate of $10 million, stretch would be $2 million a year) saves you almost exactly the same amount as trading Aminu and cutting both PapaG and Baldwin.

Stretching Turner saves us somewhere between $10-11 million this year but would be brutal the next 5 years having a $7+ million dead cap hit just from him.

Meyers would be $4M a year though? $20M over 5 years?

Do you think I based my opinion off of one tweet? The guy spins every single thing in a negative way. He once wrote an article about the benefits of creating trade exceptions and then the Crabbe trade happened and he went off about how dumb trade exceptions are.

That's some typical BE crap.
