Who we are competing with at the deadline
Here is Ainge's competition for any team that is in the salary dumping mode
at the deadline. These are the players that will be free agents next year and
make 5 million or more a year. Mills makes 6.6 million:
EWill - 5.5 - Cleveland won't trade him
Camby - 7 - Denver won't trade him being afraid of screwing up the good thing
going on
Sura - 6 - Detroit needs their own salary dump to resign Okur
Avery Johnson - GS wants to cut back, not add
Kukoc - 9.5 - Bucks need to cut back on salary
Martin - 5 - Nets will keep him and maybe trade in offseason
McDyess - 13.5, Gugs - 11.6 - the Suns could be a player but don't think they
will be adding salary at this point
Wallace - 17, Kemp - 14.9, Davis - 8.9 - Blazers definitely a player
Barry - 5.5 - Sonics are competition for the right deal
Hak - 6.3 - the Raptors could compete
Ostertag - 8.5, Clark - 5 - Utah definitely can compete, with all their
salary cap room
Knight - 5 Wizards are a player
Therefore, there are five other teams that Danny has to compete against, the
Blazers, Sonics, Raptors, Jazz and Wizards. Danny is helped with the extra
draft pick as does the Blazers. The Blazers or the Jazz are the team if you have
the major restructuring to do. The insurance issue helps us also....
