the max is tied to the cap, so if you pay over max, you're circumventing the cap.* i remain flabbergasted at the breathless attempts to exonerate...
you mean like, paying them more than the maximum salary?
to me, this is huge. like giant. if you interpret the rule as if it doesn't impact max guys, the rule becomes really useless. the league turned...
btw, this is the rule: the red "and" is doing A LOT of work here and basically saying (if i read it correctly) that if the player is on a max...
yeah, it's an interesting thought. though again, i think scale of the dirk/duncan stuff is totally different. first, both guys took less, then...
i think if the clips skate here, literally all bets are off. there is no salary cap, imo. if you don't enforce rules, there aren't rules....
guessing they couldn't risk foul trouble? it's not like avdija could even bother luka anyway. this guy has jaden mcdaniels and a second defender...
yeah, sorry, absolutely not on board with what's being stated the past few posts. lebron's involvement with klutch isn't the same, imo, as...
if we're going to be fine with what ballmer did, just get rid of the salary cap. i'm fine with it, tbh. we're owned by one of the rich people...
yeah, it's crazy. i do think the back injury probably affected him more than people talk about, but the psychological issues were still the main...
but how many "blow bys"? this is the only (fictional) stat that matters.
this is the part i'm surprised is allowed all by itself--a company the owner is invested in is the company paying the player? i'm guessing if a...
again, all true, but i think there may be "soft" consequences. this is the league that basically rigged the 2006 finals because they wanted to...
btw, torres hints he knows more about brunson to ny than most, and i'd love to hear that. nobody cared at the time because brunson wasn't a big...
this is all true; where we disagree is that you said everyone is being naive and that every other team does this. i think this is particularly...
the narrative may end up being the biggest problem--something ballmer knows all too well. like, what if the clips won a title with leonard...
yeah, i believed those reports at the time, but because the lakers made the claims, it was supposedly just sour grapes. ok, sure. you can see...
i think this is it. i fully believe pat riley has been paying guys in illegal ways, but he always made sure there wasn't a clear paper trail (and...
clips claim this is "provably false". what does that even mean? is their contention that all of these documents are forgeries? that the sources...
uh...yeah...this is insane if true and should carry some pretty serious consequences. imagine if we'd done this. the luka trade would get...
