LeBron max 

Post#1 » by Knosh » Mon Jun 30, 2014 6:18 pm

Seeing different reports on what his max would be:

Teams that contact James will be informed that he wants no less than the maximum salary number for next season, sources said. The max number is projected to be $22.2 million.

(Windhorst: http://espn.go.com/nba/truehoop/miamihe ... mum-salary)

Going by what footnote 2 in http://www.cbafaq.com/salarycap.htm#Q16 says, I thought it would be "35% of 42.14% of projected BRI". So $63.2 mil / 0.4474 * 0.4214 * 0.35 = $20.83 mil.

1 Windhorst is definitely wrong. Way too high.
2 The max is based on the cap, so we won't know the actual number until we get to July 9
3 Coon is correct-ish except the cap is unknown, and the precise adjustment ratio itself also varies
4 Your 42.14 / 44.74 ratio equates to an adjustment to 94.2%
5 As a point of reference, this past season the adjustment was about 93.4%, and Coon's estimate used that factor to calculate his 20.66 answer

Thanks, didn't realize the adjustment ratio varies.
