    Mark Deeks actually composed a great list determining teams Salary Cap situation this summer. I thought I remember him correctly mentioning what is happening in Lin and Asik's deals.

    It prohibits Dwight if they have no luck dumping Robinson.

    I hope we do.

    Cp3 + dwight. You have to do whatever you can for th chance of pairing them with harden.

    i don't think it'd be a good move to just dump his contract. since he doesn't affect dwight, and imo, he'd thrive with dwight too. unless we were somehow in play for cp3 too, then i don't see the point. since he did have a good season

    Not necessarily. Moving Asik, for instance solves that problem.

    It could potentially prohibit it, but incredibly unlikely to do that.

    Obviously can disregard this when he mentioned the 'hike'.

    ABJ folks cream themselves I see.
