Yeah, if you are going to take on that kind of salary, Tyson Chandler makes more sense than Faried. Obviously a big guy with an expiring deal (Bogut, Ibaka, Randolph, Millsap) makes the most sense if the price is not too high.
I don't see a clearcut path to the San Antonio level either, particularly given the new CBA. Probably the best long-term path is for Ainge to draft very well this year and next.
As for Gordon Hayward, even if he doesn't sign one of those new supermax veteran erxtensions and hits unrestricted free agency, the Jazz can offer 5 years, $180 million. I believe other suitors are limited to 4 years, $132 million.
