That’s what I was thinking... but not many teams with cap space left... and there are still big FA like DLo Kawhi Green Bev who will be getting deals

MoBros had value on the court though. Jackson has no value on or off the court really

Did we call the Knicks? :lol:

Can someone post these articles if there is something we don't already know?

Knicks might actually take him for a heavily protected 1st at this point. Got to sell their fans on some "hope"

Some of these NBA reporters and writers acting like signing Rubio is the same as signing Elevator Ernie. SMH

Nothing really substantial in either article, just summarized what happened and said both sides want to make a deal when it comes to Oubre. The second article gave the signing a grade of a B.

Suns can't comment on anything til July 6th

Me too, and I can see us matching.

They drafted RJ Barrett, big money on Oubre would be just sillyness!

yes, funny... But it didn't specify the tax line on the website. And also hard to tell how far above the cap line we'd be after resigning Oubre, If he gets a substantial offer too. I wasn't assuming it was the luxury tax by the way man. Just was unclear that there isn't a tax aside from the luxury tax once you go above the cap line before the luxury tax line either. If that makes sense......

I posted something a couple times that says you get one MLE....one if you have cap room at start of FA, thus the room exception, and one if you don't....and that # depends on if you are under or over the tax (non tax MLE or tax MLE).

That is all good man honestly. I remember you mentioning the room exception I think not too long ago. Again, I just wasn't clear on if there was an initial tax bracket right after the cap line, apart from the luxury tax. Like say if the cap is set at 109 million and a team exceeds it to any number past that amount but not fully to the amount of the 132 million luxury tax line.

So I remembered that you said teams under the cap would qualify for that. But in a scenario wherein we exceed the 109 million cap line, I wasn't clear on whether or not we were considered tax payers at that point, but with not being fully at or past 132 million luxury tax line, if we were still considered a tax paying team above the 109 mark but not at or past the 132 luxury tax line. If that makes sense. So is there only the luxury tax then once you cross the projected 109 cap limit?

David Griffin is GM of the year. His 2 month resume is legendary!! He should have been the Suns GM but Sarver Sarvered.

Warriors ending up with Russell would be such a strange twist
