Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[F Gump]

Not all of the fantasy deals.  It is easy enough to design them in ways where GSW takes back less salary.  Also, is Green official or announced?  If only made public, he can still be done last.  BTW, isn't this very close to the number he gave up.  Did we presume he was going to tear up that last year and take less?

I think the bigger impediment is the potential to have all of that cap space next summer.  Is their plan really to let Jimmy, Curry and Green ride off into the sunset after this season?  Will there be better players in free agency than some of what is available in trade for Jimmy now?

You can't avoid hard cap consequences by signing a player later. The hard cap itself - for doing xyz - prevents any added spending above to go over that apron by ANY means.
