Mek's earned a spot for the rest of the season, right?

I think his play shows he can help this team through the rest of the season... so when this 10-day ends he'll be signed for the rest of the year

thoughts?

I am far too dumb to understand the NBA cap, but outside of being thrown into the tax, I would think so.

I imagine he'd get a contract that would cause as little hit to our cap as possible

He looks good enough to me that I pencil him in for next year too. If he can give what he's giving now for the next 50 games, that should let the team bring Boogie back at a doctor recommended pace.

He doesn't look like he's been out for years

I think it's a near certainty. Gives someone to bang away at the 5 spot when AD clearly doesn't want to.

In one years time we can go from

AD
Boogie
Asik
Ajinca
Cunningham

To

AD
Boogie
Mirotic
Mek
Edit: forgot diallo
Ajinca


That's five viable bigs vs two. Granted Mek has a very small sample size but he's already played drummond and held his own. He's worth every penny for right now.

Replace Ajinca with Diallo. Then you have 5 rotation worth bigs.

He held his own against Embid too and defended him as well as any non freak could. Embid is just a star and won't be stopped by normal solid defense.
