re: Jrue for the Bulls or Suns first pick?

I had wanted to use cap space for that as part of a rebuild months back when we were discussing post-AD possibilities but had been told that a Hinkle style rebuild wouldn’t work in our market and that the league would “discourage” any attempts to do so.


Depending on the return from it, there are some deals I could see on the table using cap space.

If we are blatantly tanking this year, we could do a pick swap with the Wizards in exchange for either taking on Howard or turning Hill into Howard and Mahinmi given that the Wizards’ cap situation is all messed up thanks to Wall.

Howard’s pretty much useless at this point but we can eat $6m if it means the difference in getting who we want and it means we have a small expiring contract for trades later in the season.
