I do like your list as it pretty much is similar to what I would consider the better options in this group. I would think Phil and his staff are going over a plan that would include these players as options.

Kawaii Leanard, Draymond Green, Butler

These guys are young, if the teams match, as small market teams they will have trouble building a roster
Also they would be in a position like where Houston was last season, having 3 days chase free agents because they would be capped out if not, so apply the pressure

I do not expect to win in these bids but it would put the teams (our contenders) in a position that has limited time/ability to improve

We are unlikely to get anyone except Draymond Green because of all the other salaries GS has already
They would eventually want to move David Lee and/or Iggy if they do match, as they have a lot of depth/talent and BIG contracts on the roster

I hate the fact that trade exemptions hold salary cap space, while it never did so in prior years
It should at least be changed after the new CBA and not in one season because the rules the CBA made has a loophole

Golden state will match Green BUT they will trade David Lee's contract to do so, possibly with a first rounder, definitely with 2nds, so if we luck out, thats one situation I would take advantage of.

I want that guy. Any SG who blocks the **** out of People left and right is my kinda player.

I don't think it is possible because philly has super room in their cap. It is similar to the Blazers' Wesley Matthews signing after his rookie year. He signed a one year deal but because a team offer him a a contract averaging $6.5m they were reluctant to keep him. They even let his back up(Kyle Korver) go. McDanials is different though because Matthews was a stand out and became a starter over time in his rookie year. K.J. is more of a project and to give him that MLE type money or slightly more is a huge risk. So if you try to give him a contract related to his value philly will likely match it.

All that being said one thing that could help is that McDanials might be a RFA that teams can give poison pill contracts too. So that might be another cap friendly way to get K.J. out of Philly.

Danny Green would be a great addition. One of the leagues better spot up guys, can plays, pass, move without the ball...I would choose him over Matthews depending on the price.

I like that he's coming from such a great system. I think he be a bit under the radar.

The Spurs paid Diaw $7.5m and Splitter $8.5m. I doubt they would let Green go for $10m or less given their cap situation and the upcoming cap boom. I think Matthews will get near $10-12m and it will take that to get Green out of S.A. who is arguably the lesser player.

I think that Green gets around 10 and Wes gets 12ish.

Maybe but why wouldn't the spurs just match Green at $10m. Duncan and Ginobli maybe gone after this year and even if they are not they probably sign for like a $1.00 each.

I think that they do resign him.

Wes on the other hand, I think he does not get resigned (@ 12m)
