Lonzo better play in Summer league

So somehow trade deng with the 25th pick.
79 mill on cap space
Lebron "Train Wreck" James 35 mill
Kevin "Thunderstruck" Durant 35 mill
DREAMS.
I've been holding onto this dream for months bruh. I was so hurt when CP3 blew his hammy cuz I really thought KD would bounce if that happened.
I'm glad Warriors management and Bob Fitzgerald keep cracking jokes on KD. They obviously don't respect bruh. He needs to come over here and get appreciated like he should be. I'll hold onto this dream until KD officially signs.
he'd be less appreciated than lebron
What would hurt more- paying Deng 3.5 mil over 11 years or losing 3 or 4 assets just to get rid of him?
We're most likely gonna be capped out for the next 3-4 years and the cap will continue to rise so that 3.5 might not hurt that bad.
I'm thinking we extend and stretch him.
No player assets. If it's picks and we're going to be top 4 in the west at minimum then they won't matter as much.
I'm going off the premise that we're trying to sign 2 max guys and keep Randle.
Only way to do that is to move Deng now.
3.5 for 11 years seem crazy but as the cap goes up I don't know if it's that big of a deal.
69. What is the Amnesty provision?
Amnesty was a component of the 2005 and 2011 CBAs that allowed teams to release one player via the waiver process (see question number 64) and remove him from their team salary and luxury tax computations. The Amnesty provision does not exist in the current agreement.
This was probably said after the Nash trade
Don't think you have to get rid of it altogether, just down to around 3-4 mill.We can't get Lebron and PG without at the very least stretching him. Getting rid of his salary altogether opens the door to keep Juju as well.

Also, you're probably not dumping Deng for nothing in return. You have to take some salary back so you're not really getting rid of his salary all together. Then you still have to stretch whatever player you take back and have him on the books for 3+ years.
So basically do you keep 3 or 4 draft assets for the extra 7 years of paying Deng?
Yup, you're right. Unless Bron and PG take like 1.5 less or waive Zu and Bryant which defeats the purpose.Stretching Deng is the only way to create enough space to sign both Bron and PG at their max salaries, in doing so we'd have to renounce all our free agents and let Juju go.
The only way to possibly retain Juju is to get rid of Deng's salary completely. These are the facts.
#25, future 1st and maybe Zu + cash
