    Barring another roster move (which is certainly possible), Miami would likely have to waive Ryan Anderson and the $15.6M guaranteed portion over three seasons. The waive-and-stretch will likely be necessary for the Heat to stay under the $138.9M tax apron.

    Austin Rivers had offers in $5.7M midlevel range but took the vet minimum from Rockets. “Now that the league is wide open, I just saw an opportunity. You can’t really put a price on happiness. The goal was to come back to Houston all along. I think we have the team to beat.”

    Thankfully, Ryan Anderson threads no longer belong in the GARM.

    I think most teams would offer him the minimum. And I think he’s end up in an L.A.

    He'll go to LA, OKC, Portland, or Utah and everyone here will talk about how Morey blew it again.

    Damn Austin Rivers, I respect the hell out of that. I don't know if I could have made the same decision.

    What is the vet min these days?

    2.6mil. So he took less than half, but with his checkered past of team fit, I can see why he did it. Somebody, I think Bima, said that he took a gamble this year to get paid next year with the early bird rights.

    Is there a such a thing as a "road only vet exception" under the cba?
