He'll definitely eat up the $15M we have leftover this year.
Anywhere near 4/70 would be awesome.
I believe he deserves an Otto Porter type deal, but maybe they agreed to terms before he 'broke out' this season.

Next season, if they can trade Bayless and a 2nd rounder to remove his $, they would have room to pursue a max FA.

We'll see. I tend to think he was on pace to something closer to 4/48 than Otto Porter (4/106) before the breakout. I'd be ok with 4/70, especially since a big chunk can go into the cap this season.

Can we only offer $15 million in this cap year? That kind of sucks. Maybe signing Amir Johnson was a mistake.

Salary cannot go down by more than 40%, I believe.
Could do $16M this year (+15M), then $12M, 11M, 10M for 4/48.
That would be quite a home team discount.
I mean, it's not like getting $12M isn't getting paid, but I guess it depends on how much of a fight his agent puts up....

I'm ok with more than that. Can we only extend him 3 years? I thought we could extend him 4 years?

It would be a 4 year deal that includes this year.
Probably get a signing bonus to offset the prorated contract.

Top unrestricted free agents in 2018:

LeBron, Durant, Paul George, IT, Chris Paul, Avery Bradley.

So, basically Paul George or bust.

Here's an option: Jerryd Bayless and two 2nd round picks to the Kings for Vince Carter.

I remember last year during the blazers game at home when Covington was stinking up the joint. He was putting up brick after brick and getting boooo like crazy. And with all that, he still hits the game winning 3 with about 3 to 5 seconds left. That's when I started to like RoCo.

Sounds like he did and it's a very friendly number if correct.

$62m which includes the raise this year and an additional 4 year extension

Joel had himself a game and this team needed it tonight.

It's a good time to be a Sixer's fan :) If injury doesn't creep in, I think we are primed for a 3-5 year sweet run.

Great news with the RoCo extension.
Great win last night, big games by Embiid and Simmons.

RoCo, Embiid, and Simmons were a +16, +19, +19, resepectively.
Next closest was Redick at +3 and Saric at +1.
I believe Brett Brown needs to figure out a rotation where 2 of those 3 are always on the court together.
According to Bodner, team is +11 net rating with Joel on the court and -11 without Joel.

Saric, Redick, and TLC were a combined 2-21 from beyond the arc.
Think of how much easier this game would have been if they had hit just 7 of 21 (33%)....

Amir Johnson had as many turnovers (2) as all other stats combined (1 block and 1 foul) and was -10.

Only 16 turnovers!

So much to clean up and look forward to.
