I think I will only post confirmed signings moving forward.

Too many things getting rehashed and aggregated that are hours old.

Do they bring back Looney if they sign Horford?


Probably not. They have Quinten Post and Trayce Jackson-Davis to take his spot.

kind of crazy that the big deal we gave Demarre Carroll back in the day is basically what an MLE deal is now

Is $195.945 million higher than expected? CMB will make $6,332,520.

Had they not signed Temple right now, they would have more than the tax payer MLE to offer Luke Kornet.

even without temple we could not offer more than the tax payer MLE.
our apron number is 6 mil higher than our cap number

without temple, our roster of 12 has salary of $183.5 mil, out apron number was apx 190 mil
max we could offer is the tax mle, since spending more than tax mle hard caps you at 1st apron.

Free Agency is dead lol, cap space is really only useful for trades. If you even make it to free agency these days, you probably are a neutral asset at best, are an RFA or were on a bargain extension that you outplayed making an extension below market value (FVV and OG situation).

its dead this year, next year teams have cap space, and players will be less inclined to take extensions and such knowing that.

We don't believe that Pat Riley was camping outside Kuminga's house at 5:59 waiting with a max offer?
