You’re right. With the expiring contracts coming off the books, they could afford him, but there are replacement players to sign as well. Is having two undersized forwards costing $55MM worth it? Personally I think the answer is hell no when neither can carry the team. They’re both solid so I don’t think that type of structure would work in sorting the rest of the roster. Which is why I think he’s gone. Some other team would pony up $23MM for Fred, I have little doubt. So you have to replace Surge, Gasol, and VV. Should make for an interesting offseason soon enough.
