    He won't get more than the full MLE because he can't.

    But they can poison pill the contract like we did with Omer and Lin. It'll be overpay but we would have lost an asset. I was worried about this when I heard Jordan was flip flopping.

    Yes he can. Like the example Bima uses in the op.

    Is a team really going to want to tie up 12 mil a year to sign KJ? Maybe, but I'd highly doubt it.

    Even in that example, he's only given the MLE the first year.

    Bima answered this in the op. The example he uses is a 4/47. Which we could match but yes would be "poison pilled " after year three but he stds that offering team has to have 12 mil in avaible cap space through the life of the contract.

    That's just the way it hits the books for the Rockets.

    No, if you pay attention to what Bima said, it would hit the Rockets cap like this

    2015-16: $5.5 million
    2016-17: $5.7 million
    2017-18: $17.6 million
    2018-19: $18.3 million

    and if we let him go, it would hit around 12 mil a year to whatever team got him

    The numbers are not 100% accurate, but they are very close. If the Rockets choose to keep KJ McDaniels, it can't cost more than the MLE.....and likely much less because I doubt anyone wants to clear 12 mil a year worth of cap space for him.

    He won't get anywhere near the full MLE because no one values him that much

    9 points per game shooting worst than 40% from the field and 2 turnovers in 25 minutes on a team that was losing 90% of their games.

    And that was the better part of his season (with Philly)

    Seriously guys, why are you talking crazy?

    because people unlike you have kept an eye on the new deals signed and also are educated on something called the cap rise.

    Just because the cap will rise doesn't mean you throw money away at unproven players. Not saying KJ won't be good but he's done almost nothing yet. Certainly not enough to earn a full MLE deal. If someone thinks he will be special certainly they would have offered him that already. And if someone does offer the full MLE I can assure you Morey will not match or at least I would bet confidently he won't.

    Yeah, I don't think he will get a full MLE offer, either.

    ive actually enjoyed your posts. not this one though.

    like the other guy just said, the cap rise will doesnt mean every player, proven or not, will get that big of a contract.
