Haywood and 24

If they don't intend to bring back Love,would they be interested in Anderson? Would you give up Anderson for 24? Haywood is $10.5M non-guaranteed, so the salaries should work.

I do not understand NBA salary cap, but why would we have to take on Haywood? Why couldn't we just free up that space if we were going to dump Anderson.

Says they are looking for facilitators. Evans? A lot depends on how Gentry/Demps wants to build the roster. A trade of Evans for Haywood would open up another $10.7 million of cap room (ptting us in the $17 million range for a run at a top FA. The 24 pick does not have a lot of value though.

No. I wouldn't do that deal. I think Anderson can greatly flourish in Gentry's system. Matter of fact, I think the team is great almost as is for Gentry. One of the things I would look to acquire is a big who has some type of coordination that can run and catch the ball and finish around the rim.

If the right player falls to 24, trading Anderson for a pick and a voidable contract can make sense. But I don't think the team will make any moves that makes them worse, so as much as posters and bloggers seem to love Justin Anderson, is anyone we pick at 24 going to have much of an impact this year? Keeping that in mind, moving Anderson for about $1.5 million in guaranteed salary would give you about $12-$13 in cap space if you don't bring back Asik. Probably not enough to get a Tyson Chandler, but could you get Koufos and Gerald Green? Possibly, but it'd be tight. But Ryno + Asik for Koufos + Green + #24 is a win.

How much cap space would we have if we did the Ryno for Haywood and 24th pick swap? If it's enough to go after Carrol, I'd have to pull the trigger

If Dell and Gentry are onboard than I am on board. I didn't follow the NBA and CBB enough this past year to even know who is in the draft.

No brainer. We'd have a shot at DC.

Cavs can do better. They will leverage teams against each other.

I would trade Evans for the 24th pick and Haywood in a heartbeat. Sure it would hurt us this year, but looking forward to the 2016 free agent class, it would give us the space to find a star to pair with AD.
