    I still think it is, and I don't think Webster's salary space is part of the SUnday offer. But that's what's being reported as the holdup for the Sunday signing.

    Kahn's plan was to hold onto this offer-sheet during S&T talks, but was shutdown by the NBA. :lol:

    Minny will have to wait 7-days until Batum can sign..... and THEN Portland gets another 3-days to match.

    Minny has about 9.515-mill in cap space right now (not including roster chargers which would drop it to around 8.75-mill). They have a total salary of 48.5-mill for 11-players. The cap is at 58.04-mill.

    Minny will get an additional 5+/- mill when Webster clears waivers in 7-days. Minny would need the Batum contract to start around 10.25-mill to reach the rumored $45-mill offer sheet (with a max 7.5% salary increase per year).

    This is why I still don't believe Batum will sign the offer sheet on Sunday.

    What if on Sunday the NBA rejects the offer sheet again because it takes 7 days, not 48 hours. Oh, won't that be hilarious.

    So MN didn't submit the offer sheet to the league, but the league still ruled it invalid? How does that work? "Uh, we see in the press that you may or may not have signed Batum for $45 mil. If so, it's invalid."?

    I'm going to be in combat training for the next 3 weeks starting tomorrow night...but if that happens...my goodness.

    They're close enough that something small like trading cash + Lee or cash + Ellington to someone would get them to the 10.9 they need for the offer sheet, without Webster. I think Webster's going to be used for Roy.

    The thought of Kahn sending Olshey a copy of the contract to show he's serious, and then the league saying it's invalid is just too funny.

    Olshey should have sent David Khan an article on Paul Allen's net worth.

    Not only that, his agent was behind this 100%.

    Kahn is an idiot.

    Ndiaye is an idiot.

    It's like that scene in Glengarry Glen Ross where Jack Lemmon's character finally made the sale and close with a couple, but it turned out the couple was insane and had no money.

    One more thing, did Nic just lose 1.5 mil in this kahn fiasco? The original invalid offer was reported at 4 yrs 46.5 mil, now we are hearing 4 yrs 45 mil, if I was Nic I'd be pissed, less money and the crapstorm this creates. Can anyone add to this possibility?
