Would you keep Felton if it meant we could afford Hibbert?

What is the cap hold on a max player? I ask because, I can't believe it would be 25 mil which would be the amount the Blazers would have to spend if they renounce the rights of Nic Batum.

Did you mean to type "cents?"
 
It's nice to think about going after Hibbert, but I'm not sure it is realistic even in timing. Blazers have to make an offer to D. Williams. While that sits, they have to wait on that and also be ready to sign on Batum. I would guess Hibbert will be already signed by that point, but maybe not. Even if you did, you would be locked up for a few more days, while someone more realistic might be available. I'm not sure how Blazers can even get in the Hibbert game if they wanted to mess around with Indy.

This is my reason not to go after D Williams. Having to wait to offer Batum. Another team could easily jump in and offer Nioc then because I don't believe we could afford both. Then if D Will says no, we get neither
 
Indiana will match any offer for Hibbert, IMO. Perhaps the best the thing to do is make a run and put all your resources on someone you think you have an actual chance at. I hear that Dragic may take us seriously.

Goran Tragic led the Rockets from the 6th seed to the lottery.

Were not getting a deal worked out before Nico's agent talks to every team he can. We offer Dwill a max contract and if another team offers Nico a contract we give Dwill a time frame, if he hasn't dcided by the time we have to match we recend the offer and match Nico.

Kevin Martin was injured that entire time as well as losing Lowery. Yea it took Lowery's injury to put Dragic into the starting role but that left them with no backup PG and no #1 scorer.
