PrintThe Nets have paid out $185,000 in partial contract guarantees to Sean May, Brian Zoubek and Ben Uzoh, according to ShamSports, which tracks NBA salaries. It's the first time since 2007 the Nets agreed to give players with non- guaranteed deals "partial salary protection". The Nets gave Robert Hite $20,000 in 2007.
According to ShamSports, the Nets have given May $100,000; Zoubek $50,000 and Uzoh $35,000. May was a free agent, Zoubek and Uzoh undrafted rookies. The contracts will become guaranteed only if the players make the team's final roster. The amounts of the guarantees remain on the salary cap even if they're cut.

UZOH has to be kept
More potential than May or Zoubek, but between May and Zoubek I would take Zoubek.

I say we break a stick in half
And let oubeck and May fight it out for that last spot. Murph and Favors could play a lil center behind Brook. Then Hump and Petro get whats left Z and or May will be practice Players
The JETS/NETS are coming!
the point here
is that once again Prokhorov is subtly spending money in places that Ratner would not…in assistant coaches; scouts; support staff like video coordinators and rehab specialists; state of the art equipment; updated locker rooms; and cash to sweeten trades (Yi for Ross), front-loaded contract offers to restricted free agents (Morrow and Thomas) and partial guarantees. Not to mention $4 million to break the lease at the IZOD.
Any info on upgraded locker rooms?
We all heard about the way Cuban did that for the Mavs, and I assume Prokhorov would do the same (although perhaps wait until Brooklyn).
But I’d love to know what upgrades he’s made to the stadium and practice facility.
I know the one in the Prudential Center
a start-from-scratch operation, is a big priority for Prokhorov. Don’t know whats going on at the PNY Center…assume something.
it's the little things that count, Comrade Income

Good luck to all three of them
all three can help us out.
May will have to really impress the coaches with a glut of PF’s on the roster, but if we make a deal with Denver then we’d need him since I imagine Hump’s expiring will be gone.

Only cap space for $4.5M
And we can use the cap space in a trade anyway ;-)
We have $4.5m Left?
After the Murphy deal?
And is that w/o any of the guaranteed contracts counting?

Use the many to steal some talent from a team over the luxury tax...
Or let us trade for Melo and not have to match contracts. How much do we need to send to take on Melo?
