Feels like we've convinced Greg Monroe to sign for the MLE to start next to Giannis.

Well it's not much above the minimum.

I imagine that it is the difference between us actually signing these guys or not most of the time.

So what’s the money situation look like now? Anyone have a breakdown for a not so cap friendly guy. We still have the full MLE to spend?

I'm happy these guys are coming back cheap but....we kinda sucked last year and have lost 2 starters..who haven't really been replaced.

I wasn't expected championship but there's gotta be mtc

Complaining about a PO on a short term cheap deal is just finding something to complain about.

There does if you want the discount. It's the Horst special.

Player option on league minimum is a complete nothing burger.

7 year vet minimum, 3,080,917. 120% of that with non bird rights = 3,697,100.4. 5% increase in year 2 = 3,881,955.42. 2 year 7.5. Seems like a minimum to me.

Well it's not much above the minimum.

Horst cooks in FA. Y'all ought to have faith in that regard. The draft, trades, that's different. He's bad at those.
