Woj: Kings let Bogi go
- Thread starter Tetsujin
- Start date
Last I checked Buddy started 82 games in 2018-2019 under Joerger where the Kings won 39 games and averaged 21/5/2.5 on 46/43% shooting. Bogi started 17, so it's not like Joerger who according to you considers him a 6th man didn't have any other options.
But please continue to speak as if you know everything, and keep sharing that knowledge you're getting from your weekly NBA coach and GM dinner party.

Not only that the trade kicker is 15% (if that’s the accurate figure) of whatever is still owed on the contract. So if the KINGS matched, the price to trade him gets cheaper in 2021 if they couldn’t move him until after the end of the season.
8.1M isn’t a figure that can’t be overcome especially of it nets some kind of worthwhile asset. Hell, the KINGS keep moving picks for cash considerations and they have a bajillion 2nd round picks so there are a multitude of ways to offset cost.

I read about it the other day. 15% is the max a trade kicker can be and it’s based upon the remaining balance of the contract. So at the end of this season, the balance will be roughly 18M lighter. Give or take a little bit depending how it is spread out — as you said.
So for sake of argument if 54M remains after this season, 15% would be roughly 8.1M.
Don’t know where you’re getting this 5x thing from.

per Hollinger in the Athletic...
One twist, however, is that the player option part actually lessens the impact of the trade kicker, because the option year is not included in the trade kicker calculation.
For instance, Bogdanovic’s contract has a 15 percent trade kicker, so if the Kings traded him in the summer of 2021 they would have to fork out $5.4 million – 15% of the two years left on the contract before the player option. Without the option, that kicker jumps to $7.2 million.

Per Bleacher report, Bogi wants to move on because he feels "de-prioratized " by the Kings. Doesn't sound any different than Buddy to me. Actually sounds like when Vlade left, Bogi lost his safety net.

Look at it like this
If you signed me for a 4 year 40 million contract with a 15% kicker
Year one I don't go anywhere
You trade me at year two
Year two calculated would be 15% more than that or 11.5 million minus each day over the year, for that calendar year
Year 3 & 4 would pay the full 11.5.
What matters is the cap hit for year 3 and 4 to the next team stays 15% higher no matter what.
