yeah, i really want afflalo to opt out. he had some good games for us, but he's not our guy moving forward.
but id rather keep him for one more year than overpay someone and give them a longer contract. i think our focus needs to be on developing young talent for this year, and then go all out for westbrook next year. its not like we're winning a championship in 2017 unless KD and conley sign.

Donnie Walsh cared more and never left us fans in the dark...
Phil, on the other hand, I think he's just having fun and not taking this serious

some good news:
- Batum's camp said we'll be offering him a max deal. All signs point towards him staying in Charlotte though.
- Phil will buy a late 1st-early 2nd round pick in June

There's really nothing for which Phil can buy a pick with. Unless Phil unloads a 2018 or 2019 first for it.
Or throws out all 3 - 2nds you guys are owed (2 from Houston, 1 from Cleveland). But not sure that is worth it because it will keep you from having a 2nd Rounder until 2022 at the time. Also with what happened to the Wizards giving away their 2nd to the Lakers for money, and it becoming Jordan Clarkson, it may be tougher for teams to just unload a 2nd rounder for money.
Or uses Kyle O'Quinn to do it, but in a best case that gives you an early 2nd.

I'm okay with trading KOQ for an early 2nd if Hernangomez comes over.

Not in the first, you can't. There's not a single team that will trade their 1st Round Pick for money only.
In the 2nd, maybe.
But as I said, while it's possible, teams are a bit more reluctant to do so than they were before. Because of the possibility that you sold a quality player for nothing.
Last draft there were only 2 picks bought for only Cash Consideration (#54 & #56). All others had a player or other picks attached to it.
2014 - you got 44,46, 55, 59, 60. And # 46 turned out to be Jordan Clarkson, which I bet if you were to ask the Wizards about that trade, there is a lot of regret.
You'd have to find a team that when it comes up, they don't have A SINGLE player on the board that they like, or see any translatable skills into the NBA. And most times, you won't get that until you're in the 50s.
