I don't buy that it ends our shot at Jennings.

For one, there's still options to clear additional cap if needed

Other than extending Cam which is probably not happening any time soon there aren't really any options to clear cap space that don't involve restructuring and pushing money into the future which Gettleman has already said he is against and is what got us in this cap mess in the first place. He's not going to touch CJ's contract and extending TD into his mid 30s is not smart when he can just wait until after the season to see if he loses anything with age.

Jennings would likely take around $4-5M in space and that would put us well under Gettlemans preferred buffer zone even when you factor in Williams coming off the books soon.

I assume those of you claiming this is a lot of money have the contract terms and are 100% sure the 3mil is guaranteed.

Cuz there's no chance a 34 year old corner, coming off two bicep tears in a row, would have any sort of incentives built into the deal.

$3.05 mil doesn't necessarily mean $3.05 mil against the cap, right?

Regardless, I like the signing. It's 2.12% of our total cap--and yeah, like 75% of the available space lol. But I'll take him at the price of slightly above average player salary.

Getts gettin it done. With a solid draft this team might look like one that's ready to make a run. Real talk.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
