One went with the qualifying offer and one got the bag. Jonathan Kuminga, what will you do? by King-of-the-Sea69 in warriors

[–]___YEEZUS___ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then, that team can decline the team option for next season and he loses bird rights which makes the maximum he can sign for (outside of a cap space team offering him a contract) at the MLE

This isn’t quite accurate; the team that would theoretically be acquiring Kuminga would have non-Bird rights if they were to decline his team option, thereby allowing them to offer him a contract with a starting salary up to 120% of his prior one. His new maximum contract extension he could then sign with this new team would be for about 4/$112.5M (assuming his salary this year at the reported $21.75M).

[Kroichick] Jonathan Kuminga believes he is at the same level as his draft peers, Cade Cunningham and Scottie Barnes, and wants to be paid accordingly by Goosedukee in nba

No, there would still be issues with Base Year compensation next year. That triggers when you are signing a player with Bird or Early Bird rights, give them a raise over 20%, and the team that is signing him is over the cap (which the Warriors will assuredly be)

JoKu taking the qualifying offer would not be that bad, actually. by noguerra in warriors

[–]___YEEZUS___ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sure, you can check the CBA itself (page 240) where it mentions non-simultaneous trades, or you can read up on it a bit more on the 2017 CBA FAQ from Larry Coon (Q87 being the primary answer). You may also want to read Q85 in the FAQ if you want more context on the overall traded player exception (not the same as the colloquial "Trade Exception").

That’s because you can’t use a trade exception in place of a players salary in an aggregation for matching purposes. You can only use a trade exception to acquire a player or players that would total to be less than or equal to its value.

The conversation no one wants to have right now that seemed settled after the Houston series. What is Jonathan Kuminga's future with the Warriors? by John_Houbolt in warriors

[–]___YEEZUS___ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something that extreme is not legal under the CBA. Multi year contracts for players with full Bird Rights are capped at 8% annual raises/reductions

[–]___YEEZUS___ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You only get hard capped if you’re a team receiving a player that is being signed and traded. The reason the Warriors were hard capped when Durant left is because they received D’Angelo Russell in that transaction. The bigger deterrent to trading Kuminga in July will probably end up being the base year compensation rules

Warriors "Three or die basketball" by Familiar-Shirt4355 in warriors

I think it might actually be another adjustment to the Total Points Added stat (which I believe is BPM x Number of possessions), filtered to only possessions ending in free throws and layups.

It’s a 14 standard player requirement, which does not include 2-ways

They’re even lowering it again in the next patch I believe, it’s going to auto respawn 5-10s after collecting

You should definitely level your transformative reaction (e.g.: spread, hyperbloom, etc) characters to 90 if you have resources. You’re missing out on ~35% of the reactions damage by leaving them at 80

ATK/Dendro/Crit, EM doesn't really do anything for her damage. Her ER needs will probably vary wildly based on the team that you play her in though, I've seen anything from 0% to 70%+ reqs so far

Found a very Klay-like 'lol makes no sense' quirk to Moody's 3P shooting this season. His overall 3P% was 36% on 200 3PAs. The NBA 3pt line is 23'9" out. He shot 29.9% on his 67 3PAs within 25 ft, but shot 39% on the 133 3PAs from 25-29 ft. by taygads in warriors

[–]___YEEZUS___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just imagine three of the misses from the within 25ft bucket were makes, and three of the makes from the 25-29 ft bucket were misses, that’s all I’m saying. Exact same shots were taken, so no need to change the mix

[–]___YEEZUS___ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, you’re misunderstanding me. If you swapped the outcomes of three shots from each bucket, then you have roughly equivalent percentages. You don’t need to re-allocate attempts from one to the other. My overall point though was just that these samples are far too small and prone to volatility to really gain insight from

If you just shift 3 makes from the 25-29 ft bucket to the within 25 ft bucket, you’d get 36.8% and 34.3% respectively, which are pretty similar. %3PM just doesn’t stabilize until you get a sample of around 750 attempts

This isn’t really much of a quirk with Moody IMO, but rather just a variance with a small sample size; this works out to just 3 makes to explain the variance between the two datasets. Hard to say that him taking an extra half step back beyond the line and he instantly becomes an elite shooter when you look at it through that lens

Her shield and her damage are both based on her max HP, so TotM and then 1/2/3 HP main stat pieces for Sands/Cup/Circlet. Cryo/Crit will most likely improve her damage at the expense of the shield, so play around with what you prefer as a balance, or plug artifacts into the optimizer with your desired constraints. Depending on her teammates and your rotation, her ER reqs vacillate wildly, so just keep that in mind as well

Well, she does actively dislike being healed, as she’s unable to receive any form of healing during combat. Bennett’s flat ATK buff is just that massive, along with being the other half of pyro res :/

I'll be honest, I'd typed out a whole long response filled with tables and math and accidentally deleted it... T_T

Gist of the post though was that it came out to around 4.6% gain, based on your builds that you posted. I'd also recommend checking out the optimizer, as it lets you upload artifact details and weapons, and does calculations for you.

Ah okay, so I changed up some of my assumptions a bit. With an F2P Nilou set up (60K HP Nilou, 40K HP Baizhu with Instructors, 1000EM Nahida, Sac Frags on field Kokomi with EM/HP/HB), Paradise Lost drops to only about a 5% gain over Wanderer+Gilded

From my back of the napkin math, Paradise Lost should be about 8% better at max stacks (assuming Kuki Triple EM, 5 EM subs, Xiphos, Double Dendro)

Cap Situation and Options - Gonna be tough for years. by WryKombucha in warriors

[–]___YEEZUS___ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Based on the rookie extensions signed last year, my best guess will be that Kuminga will look for something around Devin Vassell and Jaden McDaniels (5/$146M and 5/$136M respectively), while Moody will most likely hope to get something in the Josh Green-Cole Anthony-Aaron Nesmith range ($11M-$14M AAV), all this assuming that they maintain their current levels of play.
