NYRaider Posted July 30, 2021 Author Share Posted July 30, 2021 @seminoles1 Memphis receives: Buddy Hield Sacramento receives: Eric Bledsoe, whichever of the Jazz/Lakers 1st that's higher Would put them 1 PG away from being able to run with an all PG starting 5.

NYRaider Posted July 30, 2021 Author Share Posted July 30, 2021 (edited) Quote A trade for Buddy Hield is still possible, but it would most likely have to get a free agent with full Bird rights included as part of a sign-and-trade for Hield, such as Dennis Schroder. Such sign-and-trade discussions cannot begin until free agency commences on August 2. One possibility is trading Schroder straight up for Hield. An $18.6 million starting salary matches Hield’s $23 million salary. Anything higher reduces his outgoing salary to $15.5 million due to Base Year Compensation. The Lakers could include Alfonzo McKinnie on a partially guaranteed amount if Hield’s likely incentives upon being traded to the Lakers require a bit more salary matching. However, the Kings don’t have a fit for Schroder for the type of salary he could command. More realistically, the Lakers can get Hield if this trade for Westbrook with the Wizards gets expanded into a three-team deal with the Kings. Schroder would still have to be involved likely at that $18.6 million starting salary amount, but he can be rerouted to the Wizards or a fourth interested team. Connecting the dots, perhaps the Kings could get still get Kuzma or Harrell while the Wizards get Caldwell-Pope, Schroder, and McKinnie. @Leader @TheRealMcCoy @CWood21 Edited July 30, 2021 by NYRaider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYRaider Posted July 31, 2021 Author Share Posted July 31, 2021 (edited) Quote San Antonio Spurs unrestricted free agent DeMar DeRozan was in talks with James, sources said, but the Westbrook deal eliminated that option because it would have required a sign-and-trade scenario and a Kuzma inclusion. Quote That makes some degree of sense. DeRozan made $27.7 million last year. If he was signed-and-traded for Kuzma, he could have made up to $15 million for the Lakers, who would have been hard-capped by the transaction. But with Kuzma gone and no other big salaries to send back to the Spurs, the most the Lakers could offer him would be the $5.9 million taxpayer’s mid-level exception, a pay cut of more than $20 million. Even for the chance to return home, there is only so much money a guy is willing to pass up on. @TheRealMcCoy Edited July 31, 2021 by NYRaider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted July 31, 2021 Author Share Posted July 31, 2021 (edited) LOL at the NBA not allowing the Bucks to sign Bogdanovic and taking away draft picks for "tampering" when LeBron is literally meeting with dudes that are under contract with other teams during the season. @TheRealMcCoy @beekay414 Edited July 31, 2021 by NYRaider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted July 31, 2021 Author Share Posted July 31, 2021 Quote Barry Jackson: If Heat loses bidding war for Lowry & doesn’t get Dinwiddie or Ball (or Paul,Conley obviously), there is Sexton interest.But Heat likely wouldn’t have enough to appeal to Cleveland unless Love included&Heat would then be up against tax in 22-23.
