Don't they HAVE to get under their cap though? I feel like I'm in a fog as to how strict some of this is.
Anyone seen a good summary of the new cap environment out there?
Wondering if some guys like Dirk, Kobe etc. might rework thier deals to keep things flowing. Dirk winning championships probably puts more endorsement money in his pocket that a salary cut.
If I understand correctly its not really a hard cap so they don't have to. If they are more then 4mil over the tax they get the mini mid lvl, and I believe if your more then 5 mil over the tax you pay $2 for every $1 over. Then 50% goes to all the under teams and 50% goes to a nba "pool" for "related projects" like nba cares.
They want to gut the team to have cap room because they want to sign Williams, or Paul, or Howard. None of which do I expect to be available next summer.
