If we could keep Ross and Bamba improves we could run kemba-Fournier-Isaac-Gordon-Bamba Fultz-Ross-iwundu-Birch And I guess 4 years isn't that long And it's the 30% max, not the super max. So maybe it's be smart to do that. But Fultz is almost 21, Bamba is almost 21, Isaac is 21. That's a lot of youth and uncertainty to say "this is our team for 4 years now go and make the second round" Not overthinking at all and cap management critical. if we do not sign Vuc we save $12 million. Next year Mozgov's contract gone saving about $17 million. If we resign Ross I am thinking we add $5-6 million to what we are paying him now. ($10 mil per year to $16 mil per year). Leaves us with a $23 million net to spend ($29 mil losing Vuc and Mozgoc and + $6 million to Ross. In addition we lose Fournier's $17 million the following year. Rookie contracts go up a bit too so have to factor that in but K. Walker ($25 million or more per year/4 years) could work over 4 years if we can make the first year work salary wise. Problem is I just read Dallas will throw max money at Walker. ( something like 140 million over 4 years.). So he may be too expensve if that happens. But we need to overthink and try to be creative.

I am 100% on board with Steve Clifford and the way he got this team to play to its strengths and work together as a unit on defense. Hats off to our FO as well for getting us Briscoe and MCW, signing AG to a great contract, and dumping EP. Kudos in advance for re-signing TRoss and Vuc at great contracts too!
