Kobe

*cough* Howard *cough*

And vege, Kobe isn't even under contract lol... how do you know he will be a Hawk after FA?

I have a hard time finding where i mentioned the Hawks on my post but that's ok :lol:

How do i know he will be a Hawk? The only team who can offer something close to the money i offered him (27 million per) is NYK and then you should look at my roster and NYK roster, if he sign with them they would have ~the MLE to build a team around him. I don't think it should be a hard decision for him at all but i can be wrong you never know.

Washington can offer a 26,4 mil per year deal if they want and Boston can offer a 24,6 mil per year deal if they want. NYK can offer a 28 mil per year deal and they would have ~7 million to build a team around him

Is that enough to answer how do i know Kobe will be wearing the #24 Atlanta Hawks jersey after the Free Agency?

Sorry to break it to you but no team can offer Kobe 27 million a year including you. This may be a fantasy league but we are using NBA rules. :roll:

You are wrong.

No you are wrong. No player in the league gets a contract at 27 million a year.

can you please recap the salary structures (max and min) plus what % increases we can offer
It's all right here:

http://members.cox.net/lmcoon/salarycap.htm

For max/min contracts:
http://members.cox.net/lmcoon/salarycap.htm#Q11

For % increases:
http://members.cox.net/lmcoon/salarycap.htm#Q19 (see chart at bottom)

Players' maximum salaries are never less than 105% of their previous salary. For example, a ten-year veteran who earned $20 million in 2006-07 has a maximum salary of $22.1 million in 2007-08

For all other extensions, the salary in the first year of the extension is limited to 110.5% of the salary in the last year of the existing contract.

Go figure out the rest.

YOU ARE WRONG. If you want to say i am wrong prove me wrong else i will laugh my ass off on you on my next post.

This is Kobe's max deal.

1st Year: 24,186,093
2nd Year: 26,725,632
3rd Year: 29,265,171
4th Year: 31,804,710
5th Year: 34,344,249
6th Year: 36,883,788

30,534,940 per year.

There are both minimum and maximum salaries, and both are based on how long the player has been in the league.

You can read the chart for yourself if you like but a players maximum salary is dependent upon the years he has been in the league. Try not to cry too much about being proven wrong. I wouldn't want your tears to short out your keyboard.

Kobe can sign for $24,186,093.75 in the 1st year of his new deal. That figure is 105% of his previous year's salary.

skflives · Post #109 » by **skflives** » Fri Jul 17, 2009 8:04 pm

I dispute that but at the very least Vege has been proven dead wrong in regards to his statement that he can offer Kobe 27 million a year.

Post #110 » by **roc** » Fri Jul 17, 2009 8:30 pm

Actually on average it would be more than $27 mil per that any team can offer and the team that owns his rights can offer more still.

now if we are talking 'a deal starting at $27mil' then no team can offer that.

Why any team in this economic climate would want to dish out a contract that huge anyway is beyond me.

Seriously, you should have stfu after my 1st reply. I showed you Kobe can get a deal above 27 mil a year. THE NUMBERS ARE THERE. GO READ THE DAMN RULES BEFORE SAY SOMEONE IS WRONG PLEASE. Thanks.

I offered him a 27 mil/year deal

I should contend for the next 3 years having a payroll at ~80-85 millions so i think it's better to offer him a big contract than risk seeing him go and have a perfect complimentary team without a star to put me over the top. 2 other teams can offer him deals similar to that so oh well.

Just about 15-20 mil over the lux tax...no biggie

vege · Post #114 » by **vege** » Sat Jul 18, 2009 4:16 am

Yeah Look at my team, 15 mil over the lux tax should be no biggie. I don't start Kevin Martin as my PG

Eh no biggie. You only have one of the cheapest/poorest owners in the league

vege · Post #116 » by **vege** » Sat Jul 18, 2009 9:59 am

I know but i think Kobe would make him earn money even paying 10-15 million in LT. The team would be a deep playoff team and Kobe image would bring him a lot of benefits for him and his franchise.

I just compare the team's salary to Cleveland/Orlando/LAL/Boston/Washington/SAS/Phoenix's salary this year, if the guy wants to give the next step and be serious about contending, he will need to take some risks.

The situation right now is, let Kobe walk, stay under the LT and grant a low seed and a 1st or 2nd round exit or keep Kobe, take the risk and try to get a championship and think about money later. If he goes to 2-3 NBA finals in a row, sell merchandises, sell out 3 seasons in a row, that should be enough to pay the extra 10-15 million he is committed in the LT, if not, he can always demand for Kobe to be traded, the team is young enough to go in a instant rebuilding mode

So like i said, Look at my team, 15 mil over the lux tax should be no biggie.

And if you want to continue this we should move to the discussion thread and let this thread for Free Agency. I don't mind explaining what i think about the team i am managing, i just think this is not the right thread.

You guys would be better off smack talking once your rosters are set, right now who knows where the big FAs are going or what trades are going to be made? And yes, he CAN make an offer to Kobe above an average of $27M a season, but he CANNOT start his salary at $27M (has to start it at 105% of his previous salary I believe, see vege's post) . I don't get what's so confusing here.

Well, I got my offers typed up and pretty much ready to go. Let's do this!

deNIEd · Post #119 » by **deNIEd** » Sun Jul 19, 2009 5:55 pm

What's the max level starting at? It changes year to year depending on cap space and whatnot

Post #120 » by **roc** » Sun Jul 19, 2009 5:56 pm

I also have a backup plan just incase but...
