Only two moves invoked the hard cap: signing KJMCD and Harrell. Nothing else affected that. It is unlikely either is a rotation player.
Except, for Durant, moves would still have to be made and one of DMo/Jones' cap holds could be held and still make it fit. Plus, with the 1 year...
It wasn't an issue of not having him this year, but what signing him longterm does to our flexibility.
Yep. Don't understand it at all.
Travel doesn't matter at all anymore and that is what is stupid about divisions or conferences. Every team takes a private charter to and from...
I think it hinges on chasing Durant. If they can get Durant then they get Dwight to agree to a deal of 4 or 5 years starting at $18-20M a year. If...
That likely doesn't help the Rockets much, if any because they will also extend at least one of DMo and Jones and will be capped or close to...
Yeah, this will end up blowing up in Harden's face and possibly hurt the Rockets. I don't find any of the chicks he hangs with attractive, but at...
Agree. And Bballholic's criticism of TJones and fellating of Rubio is one of the funniest things on this site.
If Dwight opts in (assuming it isn't because he had some bad injury that saps his contribution greatly) then the Rockets still can easily make the...
Should be around $90M. We don't need to lose anyone to keep Dwight. And Dwight would probably just have to take a slight discount to stay and make...
And, it may be a risk, but we could take the risk on Lawson and still have $13-20M to bring him right back with the same team and Dwight extended,...
It will be draft day when it becomes guaranteed, so as of now only the Blazers could do it without another move. I forgot to mention that in my...
Great stuff. I very much disagree with your final premise on using the MLE for Harrell and hard capping ourselves to sign him, but the info is...
It essentially all hinges on what Dwight decides to do and whether he will take less for a longer deal. If he takes just south of $20M in starting...
Yeah, but they can sign Harrell to a 1 or 2 year deal, but they just won't be able to get the extra years or guarantee him more than the minimum....
It essentially all hinges on what Dwight decides to do and whether he will take less for a longer deal. If he takes somewhere south of $23M in...
We could. That would just mean this team is essentially stuck as is, though.
KJ doesn't need to be an all-star. Neither Brewer or Ariza are close to All-Stars. KJ certainly has the potentially to improve to the point of...
I don't think either Ariza or Brewer are likely to be traded, but they certainly would trade them for someone like Bosh or Horford or the ability...
