[Lor20]

Tyson Chandler $14,596,888
Monta Ellis $8,720,000
Brandan Wright $5,000,000
Raymond Felton $4,360,000
Jae Crowder $915,243
Ricky Ledo $816,482
Gal Mekel $816,482

Assuming dirk is at around 9.2 (10,10.8) and harris at 2.8/3/3.2
we'd have 47.2 mil used. 63 mil cap.

14 mil parsons puts us at 61.2 which with cap holds and exception holds puts us over the cap meaning we have the full MLE of 5.3 mil.

In order to give parsons that offer we'll have to renounce bird rights on vince and marion as their cap hold of 20 mil would be an issue...obviously

If we get blair back for minimum we'd have 11 players contracted. i wouldn't mind adding vince for 1.5 of the mle and mo williams for 3.5 and some vet minimum guy somewhere.


Perhaps trading Wright and felton for a different big man that is a better fit even though I like Wright.

harris/Mo willams
ellis/ carter/crowder
Parsons/crowder/carter
Dirk/?/blair
Chandler/?/blair

I could live with ? being wright but why are we going after mo williams if we are planning on keeping harris and felton?

I'd call that a decent offseason. got better and younher at sf, got better at center, worse at PG offensively but slightly better defensively which was a bigger issue last season.

edit..maybe im wrong wtih mle. i guess we drop below to sign parsons which means we gt sign dirk first, then renounce marion and carters bird rights and then sign parsons, then we are below cap and can only get the room exception? its a little confusing to me as to which exceptions create a cap hold and which part you can use to sign players.
