Sending them Gordon and Lopez is a lot to send for Pekovic, who is a good Center, and a good fit for us, but not exactly an elite type of guy. There's no chance I would send them all that for an RFA.

I'm just spitballing at this point.


I mentioned Gordon specifically because I was looking to clear cap space for additional moves.


We've got $35m in space right now, but that's without exercising $8m in team options or signing Pekovic.

Assuming the cap is $60m, we need to move Lopez and Gordon for either space or other pieces once we get Pekovic.
