Trade Speculation/Ideas 2019

[EricaLubarsky]

If we were to trade for Porter Jr.

Next year without a trade:
???/Powell (P.O.)/ ???
Barnes (P.O.)/???/???
???/???/???
Doncic/???/???
Smith/Brunson/???

51 million in contracts (about 58 million to work with) and five guys on the roster. If Barnes opts out (which he'd be dumb to do but may want a longer contract), then we'd have 83.1mill to offer, but only four contributing roster spots.

Next year if we traded Barnes for Porter:
???/Powell (P.O.)/ ???
Porter/???/???
???/???/???
Doncic/???/???
Smith/Brunson/???

53.2 million in contracts (about 55.8 million to work with) and five guys on the roster.

So if Barnes opts in, there's only about a 2.2 mill loss in cap next year.
