I don't see any chance CP3 takes less than the max for anyone or anything... he literally specifically negotiated this CBA so he could get a 200 million+ max contract
If his preferred destination was Houston, he'll take less heat if he was traded. But nobody knows where LBJ wants to go next.
Everyone forgot about the critical part of banana boat crew -- we need to acquire the world's most famous banana boat for cash consideration before anyone else! It's pointless to assemble the crew without the boat itself.
I don't know their exact cap space situation but I read somewhere that they can have almost 70+ million in cap space. So obviously he ain't going there alone.
Capella would be restricted so you could match whatever he was offered. Trade Eric Gordon and you will be pretty close. Lebron saw KD take a pay cut to keep that team together. So I can see this happening here if we get Melo.
LeBron, NTC, picks Houston. Carmelo, NTC, picks Houston. Goodbye Gordon, Trevor, and Capela.. you will be missed. Goodbye Anderson and cash considerations.. you will be miffed. Welcome new future hall of famer additions, you're on boat shaped like a banana. How cool.
Did anyone else get on clutchfans today and wonder why one of the bottom ads was for banana boat? After getting to this thread I can see why.
