How do we sign Watson if Barnes got the rest of the mid-level?

Recommended Posts

A big part of both of these equations (Barnes, Watson) is the interest in coming to Orlando and to an NBA Finals team.

 

Both players know that the situation is better here; both on the court and the contract side of it (no State income tax). Also, considering the short terms of the deals, as being reported, they will get even bigger pay raises if they play well for a high-profile team that is making deep playoff runs.

no kidding...

 

I will/do really miss Hedo, and I'm not one to take his loss lightly and immediately put VC in the >>>> than Hedo category...Because I truly believe that Hedo was a major catalyst in out teams success with his abilities...BUT

 

VC/Anderson/Bass/Gortat/Barnes/Watson* for Hedo/Lee/Battie/Skip, I mean really...

Not including Barnes or Watson, we're at 77.919m in salary. So assuming we sign both those players, we'll be at about 12-13m in the luxury tax, and still have roster slots to fill.

Lux tax is 69.92 million. If these Barnes figures are accurate, we'll have about a 79.5 million dollar payroll.
