    Why raised Lin's contract that much? I like Jeremy, but around 15M/year proved rockets GM is out of his mind.

    Coon is purely guessing. Lins cap hit is similar to what Gorans would have been

    Why would Dwight end up in Cleveland? It's Bynum that would be headed to Cleveland. Irving was the rookie of the year and will be a perennial all-star. Anyone that follows basketball knows what Cleveland has on its hands and that's the type of stud that every team looks for.

    The Gilbert Arenas Provision: For the team making this offer, this contract would count for $8.0 million (i.e., the average salary in the contract) of team salary in each of the four seasons if they sign the player. If the player's prior team matches the offer and keeps the player, then the actual salary in each season counts as team salary. The player's original team is allowed to use any available exception (e.g., the Non-Taxpayer Mid-Level or the Early Bird) to match the offer.

    No, when it comes to cap issues, he can't afford to be biased, he has a reputation to protect

    I'm interested to know how many bad contracts from ORL is Coon basing his math on. Bima is normally on the money on stuff like this.

    Larry posts on the Lakers board so now he isn't reliable. People cite stuff from his CBAFAQ, but now he's not reliable or 'of course he's going to favor the Lakers!"

    Haha that's funny. Whatever floats the boat. :)

    For the last time Morey found a loophole so Rockets only pay 8 million in the last year but NY will pay 15 million in that third year....I hope you get it now

    It's not 15 mil a year. It's only 8 million a year. 5 mil in first 2 years and 15 in the last year. The way the rules are written it will count as 8 million a year towards the salary cap.

    Never cited anything from Coon. Dont accuse, but you're still my favorite poster so I will let this one slide :)

    Can't wait to hear Clyde mispronounce Montiejunas like he did Dragic. It will be another Clyde classic.

    Tell me about it......some of these idiot Rockets fans are embarrassing the rest of the fan base. This was a great signing by Morey and people still have the audacity to complain.
