    Don't understand how this even happened. Not like Morey to not understand the CBA.

    lawlers.

    But but Morey said everyone would be lining up to play for Houston, the new super team??

    Meanwhile everyone is singing everywhere else and the one guy we thought we had locked up because he liked it here so much...

    The super team's at Minnesotta.

    Now that Bricky has left the building, everyone wants to go there.

    There was some ambiguous language in the "over 38 rule."

    It's because of the age 38 rule right. the offer they agreed was forced to change

    Because of the over 38 rule he can't sign the 4 year because it takes his first year over the non bird rights Max?

    I believe this is what I read.

    So in essence it turned into a 3yr/10something contract.

    I'm curious how this is resolved.

    Supremely annoying. If we lose Nene over this I'll be very upset.

    The over 38 rule in the new CBA makes the old contract (4/16) "illegal" from what I understand?

    I ultimately think he'll still sign the same deal but without the fourth year. But yeah it could get a little dicey if a team throws a 2 year, full MLE offer at him.

    I mean i think no other team is going to offer Nene more than $10 mil over 2 years anyway. at least I hope.
