re: 2020 NBA Free Agency Tracker and Rumors

Free agent Paul Millsap has agreed to a one-year, $10M-plus deal to return to the Denver Nuggets

Would there be any cap reasons to hold off on Ingram’s extension until we figure out the rest of our moves?


Like is his hold less than the extension amount?

How many players under contract did we have and how many rookies (drafted or two way) did we have under contract when free agency started?

And how much free cap space did we have?


With who we had under contract, flipping Jrue for Hill and Bledsoe, and signing a two way rookie, we had a ton of players under contract until we flipped Hill and Miller for Adams.

At this point, about all we have room for is another 5 like Baynes unless we move on from Lonzo or Bledsoe.

This has been such a shite show I'm half expecting Ingram to whiff on us

Melo!

.....I kid.

Pels probably have hand shake agreements with two FAs but can't nail down their exact contract details until the trade is officially done. Lots of moving parts with the Bucks and others probably because all our close to the cap. Once it's done we announce BI max and FAs pretty quickly

Definitely not a shitshow I like the trade and what we have done so far.

But I’m having trouble envisioning the roster plan and construction with what we know so far and what is still available.

I don’t know if this has been said, but I think we still sign Aron Baynes. Steven Adams and Aron Baynes are both originally from New Zealand. The only two native New Zealanders in the league. And of course we know the Baynes and SVG connection.

I’m sure I will hit submit and he will have signed somewhere else now. But we shall see.

I’m a Baynes fan and he has a different skill set from Adams but then I’d start to get really confused about roster construction. A lot invested in Center which doesn’t make too much sense.

What are we doing at Wing? Shooting Guard? Are we moving Melli or Ball? Then what do we do at backup PF.

I have questions.

Back up SG and Wing isn’t pressing right now. Plenty of guard depth to hold the forth down this season. Hart is adequate as Ingram’s back up for now. No point in signing guys off the street who aren’t good enough to take minutes from Hart, Redick, NAW, and even Lewis as he can play off ball. Can’t fill every position with the ideal signing in one offseason.
