A whole pound for Rubio seems like a good deal, so that opens Minny's cap to add a PG and fill out the bench

who's even available that can fill Iguodala's role on the Warriors if he leaves? I guess they can promote McCaw into those sixth man minutes but that's still a downgrade

18% of Utah's cap is tied up in Joe Ingles... yikes but if the shooting improvement is real I guess it works

what can trigger another cap increase?

How the gently caress can GS sign Durant? CUrry 40, klay 18, iggy 16, draymond 16. Thats 90. Cap is 99 correct? Or is Curry deal like 34 this year and 46 last year or something? Either way, it doesnt seem like they should be able to do it. I need read the rules sometime when I get depressed.

Edit: forgot about Livingston's $8m. So they are at 92ish wo KD?

They can go over the cap to re-sign Curry, so he doesn't affect their available cap space, I think if I understand the rules correctly

Luxury taxes are absolutely nuts in any sport, but i had no idea that the NBA's was far more punitive than MLB's

(caps on paying labor are wrong and should be destroyed)

if the Clippers commit to Blake as the focal point of their offense I guess I could see the Clippers sneaking in the back half of the west. but it depends on who else they sign in FA

the Thunder went to the conference finals five times in the KD-Russ era, so at the very least they were consistent at that time. I don't think they make it out of the first again this year considering the bloodbath that is now the Western Conference

Z-Bo is going to teach Skal, Papa John, and WCS the secret to grit and grind

but seriously, those are two good moves for the Kings! vets that can teach the kids and make them semi competitive while giving a clear window for when the kids should be good enough to be competitive on their own

How do you fix RFA? Would you do a baseball style system of arbitration? I feel like that gives teams more leverage and could possibly harm player relationships with the team
