Salary dumps taking center stage?



As teams try to find ways to pry open some cap space for big acquisitions in
free agency or trades —or just to save on luxury taxes, the Nets are among
the teams getting calls about salary dumps, according to various reports.

據各種報導 籃網試圖找辦法 試圖在自由球員的市場上

協助其他球隊吃空間 減少奢侈稅


At this point in free agency, the Nets still have about $34 million in space,
depending on what they do with team options or trades of their own. Only the
Hawks have anything close, about $30 million. The Suns and Pacers also have
more than $20 million.

The Nets of course have already played this game with the Lakers, taking on
Timofey Mozgov’s contract, with its $48 million still owed, to acquire D’
Angelo Russell, the price L.A. had to pay for past profligacy. Brook Lopez’s
expiring deal went to Los Angeles in the exchange.

這是LA為過去揮霍的行為 付出的代價

There are a number of teams looking for help. As Bobby Marks (not Sean) and
Zach Lowe noted on Lowe’s podcast Monday, Denver is looking to dump Kenneth
Faried’s contract so it can bid for George Hill. Faried, the Newark product,
is owed $26.7 million over two. Darrell Arthur is also a candidate.

Bobby Marks also said that before the Rockets used some cap management magic
to acquire Chris Paul last week, teams were demanding two first rounders to
take on former Net Ryan Anderson, who’s owed $60 million over three.

Meanwhile, in Toronto, the issue is getting below luxury tax line. Josh
Lewenberg, who covers the Raptors for 1050 Radio, tweeted the team is engaged
with a number of teams.

The easiest way to do that is dump Demarre Caroll’s contract —$30.2 million
over two— along with perhaps a pick, but as Lowe and Marks said Monday and
Adrian Wojnarowski noted Saturday, a first rounder in the mid- to late- 20’
s, where a Raptor pick would likely land, seems inadequate.

Another Toronto writer suggested a bigger deal might be in the works,
reporting Toronto is offering around a package of players.


Valanciunas, a 7-footer with an old style game, is owed nearly $50 million
over three including a $17.6 million player option in the third year. Joseph,
on the other hand, is seen as underpaid. making $7.6 million next season with
a player option worth nearly $8 million in 2018-19. Sean Marks worked with
Joseph in San Antonio.

For the Nets, taking on a salary dump would not only add big bucks in the out
years of a rebuild, but would also eliminate the possibility of making a big
splash in this year’s free agency. Taking on Valanciunas and Joseph, for
example, would wipe out $23.9 million in Nets cap space, give them a one-year
rental on Joseph and three years of eight-figure salaries for Valanciunas. No
Otto Porter, no Kentavious Caldwell-Pope.




Bobby Marks also opined that the Nets are unlikely to give KCP a max deal and
offered that the Nets shouldn’t “waste the paperwork” on making a max bid
for Porter, saying Washington will match anything.

網隊不太可能Give KCP最大的合約 不該浪費時間在Porter

華盛頓會match anything
