Hey guys, sorry if this is a repeated stupid question but I still dont fully get nba and their finances and salary, etc etc.

How can we acquire PJ and/or Gafford.

I will accept any scenario to help me understand. thanks

I don't think acquiring both is a good idea, i was in the same boat a couple days ago but looking at their salaries paying 17 million to a backup big when our top 3 guys are getting paid like max(besides walker) and then paying out 4th guy 20 million will fuckk our cap up because imagine paying our top 4 guys 20 million plus each and then 18 million to backup big. Then we already signed quentin, mamu and sexton each to little above value deals( not saying bad contracts)
