It’s hard to imagine Mitch getting a bag. He has significant limitations even when he’s healthy, and he’s not healthy much – at least not playing starter minutes. I’m sure his agent is making arguments to the contrary, but unlike I Hart, I just don’t see a market for more than $15 mil at most, probably 3 years. If we can trade Dadier and get to $12 mil in space, we give him another year and celebrate keeping him. I hope.
I think Shamet is absolutely worth more then the minimum, but as agreed, his skull set is more replaceable. Drummond or Looney or whoever will be a step down from Mitch, and then what’s the point? May as well accept the growing pains of Huk.
The Thunder went $28M over the second apron with the Hartenstein signing. And they’re expected to bring Dort back, as well, because everyone knows it’s foolish to lose an asset for nothing.
Their tax bill is going to be between $280-$400M depending on what they do with Dort. Ours is going to be $45M if we stay under the apron.
Moreover, a team that could have replaced Hartenstein with Jaylin Williams, Thomas Sorber, and Aday Mara just made very clear that going over the second apron is no big deal. While a team that has no one to replace Mitch is crying about suicide.
The Thunder are exposing James Dolan’s bullshit.
Make no mistake: the Thunder are still the standard in the West. The Spurs only beat them because of injuries. If we get back to a finals, we’re most likely playing them. And their bench is Ajay Mitchell, Jared McCain, Cason Wallace, Alex Caruso, and Jaylin Williams.
If we actually want to win a series against them, we can’t hard cap ourselves. We need everyone.
I still think we’re getting Mitch back and a lot of this is posturing so we can get him to take a lower offer. I also do not see him getting some huge offer somewhere else. I also think we will dip into the SA but just a little bit and it will be spun as Rose was able to convince Dolan to do it to run it back.
Reading that Duncan Robinson might get bought out by Detroit? He might be a nice Shamet replacement for the vet minimum.
