Favors is an expiring contract. The 2nd year is non-guaranteed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That OPJ was not living up to the max contract Plus its 43 million dollars worth of expiring they are getting and its the off season where KD is going to be a FA. If KD wasnt going to be a FA and they were just looking to move OPJ without Mahanmi, then yeah I dont think Cleveland could ask for a first. Basically it gives them one last chance to try to compete with Wall, Beal and Durant before blowing it up which doesnt seem to be something the Wizards want to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed but who wants to take an aging PG who cant shoot for 40 mil/yr . . . . . Probably LeBron and the Lakers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a good shooter and OK defensively. It is also a lot harder to build a good team when you are paying Otto 27 million per year. Bob Covington is just as good and makes less than half of what Otto makes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're correct that they should dump Porter, but Covington is far better than Porter as a defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which supports just how egregious Porter's contract is. I saw Wall is set to sit out tonight for "personal" reasons. Hate to speculate on why that might be, but it wouldn't be the first time someone sat out unexpectedly, right before getting traded. Knicks? Suns?

Besides, Washington couldn't even get a meeting with Durant 2 years ago...he's not even a pipe dream. Washington isn't trading its lottery pick for a salary dump of Porter. If they did...
