Criteria:
1. Show me the money
2. Everybody's highest priorities
3. Signing as many of my clients as possible
First those who can afford to offer beyond MPE. Teams alphabetically:
MLE: Andre Drummond 3.88m +PO (key reserve behind Vučević IRL)
Early Bird Rights: Sims 4m +TO (beats MPE+PO)
Early Bird Rights: PJ Tucker 5m +NG
MLE: Crowder 5m+NG (the best available player IMO, 72fpg in 2021-22)
MLE: Highsmith 4m+NG (easily the most natural recipient of Strus minutes, not to mention the Dame for Herro&Robinson rumors) (and they're done)
Cap Space: Nowell 4m, 3 yrs TO
Cap Space: Julian Champagnie 4m, 3 yrs TO
Cap Space: Aaron Wiggins 4m, 3 yrs TO (and they're done)
Bird Rights: Kevin Love 5m +TO
BAE: Troy Brown 3,911,923 3,911,923 (beats all MPE's) (and they're done)
QO Kira Lewis 2,295,113 (beats 1y MPE's)
MPE, everybody's first priority, if only it beats others' money too. Teams alphabetically:
Castleton MPE+NG (and they're done)
Sumner 1y
Bitadze 1+PO
Javonte Green 1y
Len 1y, Sandro Mamukelashvili 1y (and they're done)
Okeke 1+TO
Madelon 1+PO (and they're done)
Aaron Holiday 1+PO (and they're done)
Coffey 1y
Jordan McLaughlin 1+PO (and they're done because of the apron)
Which brings us to the biggest conundrum I've had in a while.
The teams that went after the same players: (23-59 in 2022-23, Prince, Wade, Jeenathan Williams), (19-63, Prince, Wade, TJ Warren) (36-46, Prince, Porter), all offered up to MPE+PO.
I prefer to be a bit unfair to everybody than seriously unfair to anybody, so I'll trump with orphans. I found no better way to solve this. Sorry guys!
(53-29 in 2022-23, 73-9 in 2021-22) orphans are probably closer to winning a ring than all 3 of your teams, and will thus break the Prince tie.
Prince 1+PO
Porter 1+PO
orphans are probably closer to winning a ring than both and , and will thus break the Wade tie, given his minutes correlation with both Niang and Damian Jones.
Dean Wade 1+PO
Jeenathan Williams 1+TO
TJ Warren 1+PO (beats w/o PO)
orphans are now the only one still without a player, and will go for Exum 1+PO (beats 1y MPE's, correlates with Seth's minutes)
MPE, everybody's 2nd priority. Teams alphabetically:
1+NG: Kessler Edwards (and they're done)
Nunn 1y
Darius Bazley 1+PO
Metu 1y
Wainright 1y (and they're done)
Jeff Green 1+TO
Muscala & Gallinari both 1+NG based on mutual minutes correlation and lack of size
N. Alexander-Walker 1+PO
MPE, everybody's fillers. Teams alphabetically:
Robin Lopez 1y (and they're done)
Birch 1y
1+NG: Isaiah Roby 1+NG for lack of more inspiring ideas (and they're done)
3x 1+NG: free agent Will Barton, Justin Holiday & Vlatko Čančar (mutual correlation, not to mention Porter's medical history) (and they're done)
Any mistakes?
PS to all the Two-Way aficionados: Tarık Biberovic is a stash, I think we should exclude him.
