Is that really true? Did the rockets know on July 1st that Iggy was going to be traded? Thus deciding not to make the full or near it, NT MLE...
No... it wouldn't be a "dream scenario" for a cheap owner... rather, it'd be the opposite, as the Hard Cap is set ABOVE the luxury tax figure....
Very true, however lets not forget the amount he would lose for being a taxed team, ie... the tax revenue redistributed to non-tax paying teams....
Its even crazier when u realize the Warrior's owner could've easily went cheap and ducked under the tax this year, with Kevin Durant's 35+ million...
The Oracle was an old arena in a very out of the way part of even Oakland not to mention SF. Basically it was located near Oakland airport....
Not a fan of Russell and personally don't think he is that good nor will he ever be that good. However, it is undisputed that he is young,...
Yeah, I'm just assuming they used the NT MLE, otherwise this years free agency haul will be a lot like last year. "We'll have our picks of free...

Butler wants the max, first team that can/will give it to him will be his team. If wolves had restructured & extended his contract last october,...
at around 13 million, his salary in that 4th year will be around 10% of the cap by then. Possibly closer to 8% with the way the cap has been rising.
I dont recall any report that has Butler listing Houston, maybe I missed it. But as my link shows, Woj as well as sham and others have reported...
What u turn? Miami was one of his preffered destination back in 2018 along with the clippers, Knicks and nets as reported by woj....
Because Butler may just be doing it to pressure Philly into giving him a 5 year max. Butler has already named Miami as a preffered trade...
