We got Aminu!!!

[Sean.ivity]

Remember the salary cap jump next year... this contract won't look too bad.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

So.... If Olshey has a plan.... And we sign this dude that quick, which, overpay as it may be, dude didn't blink.... What the fuck is coming in the next 24 hours?

 

[Natebishop3]

Pretty cheap for a guy that will be our starter.

 

[magnifier661]

Remember the salary cap jump next year... this contract won't look too bad.

And when the contract is up, cap will most likely be $108 mil

Olshey really is a pimp tho. Do gms ever gets a shoutout like that?

Batum netted us Aminu, Henderson and Noah

So defense? Thank god

Lillard

Aminu

[Natebishop3]

I think Monroe will be next.

SMH

lol...oh my

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

I think Henderson is starting at sg.....

 

[santeesioux]

I think Henderson is starting at sg.....

I don't think we're going to have to worry about Denver getting our pick next year, lol.

 

[riverman]

Olshey is just getting started. If he didn't sign Aminu, the guy would be off the table. Smart move

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Batum netted us Aminu, Henderson and Noah

I'm not hating. Brilliant move, brother. I'm a believe-olshey-er.

 

[42N8Bounce]

If we assume 4.5% raises each year, that puts Aminu's first year salary about $7.012M. If we re-sign Aldridge and keep Crabbe (renounce Afflalo, Matthews, Lopez, Wright, Freeland, Gee, and Frazier) we have about $13M in CAP space. That's not enough to get Aldridge plus another max like Monroe. However, it does leave open the opportunity to trade a player on a lopsided trade (Kaman for Hibbert?).

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

I think Henderson is starting at sg.....

Or he will be dealt. Our floor spacing got a little worse.

However our defense is better now. Especially because Aminu can guard 1-4 as good as Batum if not better on larger opponents (LeBron and Durant).

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

oK, it continues the theme of more intensity and defense. Also confirms what has been quite clear, that at least one of Lopez, Matthews or Aldridge not coming back; i'm beginning to think more likely 2 or all three not coming back.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

I think Monroe will be next.

Now that we've kept Kaman, I don't believe we have enough cap space to give Amino $7M and max Monroe while retaining LA's cap hold. Someone else should check the math, though.

 

[magnifier661]

I think Monroe will be next.

Actually it works cap wise

 

[magnifier661]

Oh shit forgot about him

 

[riverman]

Hibbert has pretty much agreed on Golden States offer and the Knicks are giving Afflalo 12 mil if they haven't already

 

[Pinwheel1]

I don't think we're going to have to worry about Denver getting our pick next year, lol.

Why is that? Because free agency is already 1 hour old and we only have 1 new player?

 

[illmatic99]

Aminu is our highest paid player

 

[magnifier661]

Hibbert has pretty much agreed on Golden States offer and the Knicks are giving Afflalo 12 mil if they haven't already

Hibbert agreed? It's not his choice bro. He opt in

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

There are only 96 minutes to go around upfront... If we got LA to re-sign and signed Monroe... Explain how LA, Monroe, Leonard, Plumlee, Vonleh and Kaman all get minutes?

I just don't see us going after Monroe.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Aminu is our highest paid player

And he hasn't even scored a point for us... what a ripoff!

 

[riverman]

Hibbert agreed? It's not his choice bro. He opt in

I read that they are getting him..and he wants to go there today ..the internet..must be true..also said the Knicks were offering Afflalo 3 years at 12 mil per

You do realize LA complains constantly about having to play 36 minute a game? He'd be super happy to play 28 minutes a game, because he's a lazy ass.

Did I do that right?

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

We should call the Hustle Stats board at the Moda Center the "Aminu Board"

I still think kaman will be going out in some type of trade; should be interesting.
