Asik, Jones, and White's contract would be $17.46M. I don't see Smith getting that anywhere. However, even if he did, enter the income tax piece...
My God do I hope the Lakers plan is to team Carmelo Anthony with a 41 year old Steve Nash, 37 year old Kobe Bryant, and 35 year old Pau Gasol....
While this is true, it doesn't mean the player has to stay with Houston. It doesn't act like restricted FA where you can just match the offer and...
Well, in two years Lin's salary won't likely give us flexibility under the cap because Harden and Howard alone would be $38.1M. Minimum filling...

Others have touched on it, but if Howard and Paul took just $500k each less than their max and Houston could deal/cut Asik, Lin, Robinson, White,...
I'd rather bring in a wing defender like Iguodola and keep Asik. Just play small like they do most of the time anyway, but add a top defender that...
