Vasquez' value isn't increasing. The clock is ticking on cheap Vasquez and the better he plays the more money he'll get on his next contract. I think either Rivers or Vasquez needs to go by the deadline...Posted on: Pelicans TalkJump to Post • View Topic |

[/quote]
The only other way to make it work is to swap Butler for for Jordan and give up the draft pick instead of Vasquez.
So it essentially becomes Gordon and 1st for Bledsoe and Bradley. And I'm not in favor of this trade, just pointing out what a 3 team deal might ...Posted on: Pelicans TalkJump to Post • View Topic |

Some are wanting to morp this into the Bledsoe/Jordan trade, but the only way I can get that to work financially is

| re: Does tonight's lottery shape the pace of our rebuild? Posted by TigerinATL on 5/21 at 9:24 am I think they have enough cap space that it doesn't matter. Assuming Gordon is healthy or traded for someone ready to contribute, this team can easily take the next logical step forward with just internal development and $14 million worth of veteran Free Agents.

1 - That's after you've made your big runs at Jennings/Pekovic etc.
2 - That's only if there is actual demand from playoff teams willing to give him their full MLE. Unless a playoff team really wants him I'd expect his salary range to be closer to $2 - $4 million.
