    Clearly I don't understand anything about the salary cap or NBA financials at all....I can't understand how 1 team can keep signing players like that.

    He's the only guy they've signed as a free agent this offseason that wasn't their own for more than the minimum.

    Casspi signed for the freaking minimum!!!!!
    Young signed for tax payer mid level exception, basically the small version of what we used for PJ Tucker as they are tax payers and we aren't right now.

    I was wondering why I had heard next to nothing about the guy, yet here we are at 18 pages. Par for the course, I guess.

    Go away thread. We need a defensive wing. Not the opposite of a defensive wing.

    Nick Young is only useful when facing Rockets. So I guess they are interested in him to have better practice matches?

    'opposite of a defensive wing'... would that be an offensive foot?

    Right now, Nick Young needs somebody to defend him in court.
