Hmmm... the longer he takes, the longer the three teams mentioned have to wait to fill out their rosters.. thats good for any other contenders IMO...He can take all summer as far as i'm concerned!

Yeah, and then he can go to the Knicks, taking himself out of the title conversation.

What is this $11.3 million freed up? Any truth to this?

Sorry, I've out running around today and am behind. Where did the $11.3M come from?

Magic. Unused cap space: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1864905

Seems like a loophole. Dunno if it's legal.

Thanks. Should be enough to sign another C to pair with Kanter, if its legal.

LOL they've been doing it for YEARS. Pretty confident they know what they're doing. I haven't even read the CBAFAQ lol.

If we found that out then surely we are signing Looney with that money right?

Or we could've gotten that 1st round pick w/ Mo Harkless.
So I guess I'm missing something and my brain is fried.
Otherwise, we'd be using it by now.

That would have been awesome actually, Moe is solid and another first is always handy

Maybe Tacko will make the roster?

Of course he is. He always was.

Can’t wait to see the Tacko haters eat a crow filled taco.

Zoya good but no Constable that’s for sure.

Honestly, they both pale in comparison to the real cap expert, CrowderKeg.

Not if what you're saying about the cap is true and they've just decided not to use that apparent space

People are short sighted. This is a MASSIVE decision for Kawhi, taking his time makes sense.

Actually there’s not much to think about. The guy has won two titles already. He’s a big time basketball player that has shown he can win without two superstars. He’s gonna get paid. It’s two choices. Be your own man or go be lebroni’s lapdog along with Davis. Clippers have a lot to offer . Coach and west as a consultant. Nice roster . Why would he be afraid to face a guy that’s on the downside of his career.

Cousins is going to the Lakers if they strike out on Kawhi. Seems inevitable.
