This is an easy no go for CHA. If this is the Jerry Buss Kupchak, this isn't close to enough for losing assets and gaining massive salary issues. Howard expires, and had a good enough season to garner some value, and Walker has value beyond the pick. I am not sure what I value Ntilikina at. I read a European journalist describe him as a raw version of Rondo. If Rondo's his ceiling, then I put his value as a late 1st, or early second round pick as of now. Certainly not negative value, but not a lot either.

You can't just waive Noah, he has the next 2 years guaranteed.

You can't trade for a player and use the Stretch provision, but you can just wave him and keep the full amount of his salaries/ years on the books.

This is a no from the Hornets. I actually think that this is more likely if you take out Howard and Noah.

Wait really. Peak rondo is valued at a early 2nd rounder? 4 time all star. 4 time all defensive. Led a championship team. Interesting valuation there.

Agree triangle, Ntilikina and a lottery pick is a solid offer for Kemba.

Ntilikina is nowhere near peak Rondo.

You just said if his value is rondo he has little value. You would place it at a late 1st early second. So yes. You said exactly that. You assumed if he meets his ceiling, of peak rondo, that’s his value. Perhaps you should read your posts before blasting everyone else’s.

Nope. Said he could one day be a Rondo is what a Euro Journalist claimed. He is obviously nowhere near Rondo, as rookie, or in his peak. As of now I rate his demonstrated ability, and value as a late 1st or early 2nd. If you got something else out of it. What can I say.

You said. If rondo is his ceiling. That’s his value. Ergo. Rondo is valued at that because clearly you value rookies at their potential. In this case you said rondo. Are you not able to read what you wrote?

That’s upsetting.
