Total Salary – $35,301,752

My investors will love the profit I show with this team, playoff bound and nowhere near the luxury tax. The starting line-up is weak against more physical teams, but the bench can help solve some of that with Perkins, Landy, Moon and Hawes able to hold their own defensively if they are asked to come in and make the game more physical. The starting line up has Mayo and Durant as two great scoring options but Cook and Young can come in off the bench to play the spark plug role with their shooting when needed.

Shrinking Salary Cap does not scare me… expiring rookie contracts do though 😉

[McWinningParticipant]

the actual players dont matter as long as you dont go over the cap.

[d-grizzlyParticipant]

alright…were there rules for picking? i took 1 superstar, 1 allstar, 1 good starter, 2 starters..

a 6th man…and 4 bench and 1 scrub…. 11 players at 58.6 million

[d-grizzlyParticipant]

then i could have made a much better team…i assumed about there being rules..sigh..lol

[theasianpersuasionParticipant]

Nice post. I’ll be back with my smartness in a few minutes.

lolontharoflcopter – nothing stops this fool

[McWinningParticipant]

you can redo your team. i was just interested in seeing what kind of teams people could come up with.

[McWinningParticipant]

”Nice post. I’ll be back with my smartness in a few minutes.”
lol that was a hilarios post.

[d-grizzlyParticipant]

howard – 15.1

lopez – 2.2 – ya i’d start him at PF, i don’t care if he’s a center..twin tower lineup!

battier – 6.8 – i’d give him a solid 20 minutes a game of defense

mayo – 4.1 – would compliment parker very well

t-parker – 12.6 – one of the best penetrating guards with a jumper and D. – so far – 40 million

marc gasol – 3.2 – would be stacked at center with marc behind him
tyreke evans – 3.6 – i’d look foward to him being our sixth man actually.
michael beasely – 4.6 – receives about 24mpg at SF
jason thompson – 2.0 – substituting for lopez…i like it.
mario chalmers – 777,000 – would be a great backup for parker..and if parker got injured, chalmers is good.
bruce bowen – 1 million – 2-4 mpg, sorry, you’re just old dude.
JaVale McGee – 1.5 – one more big man for assurance..what better than a young talented big?

16.6 million in bench + 40 million in starters = 56.6 million.
