    He should agree to terms with Dallas verbally then come here. This can become an annual thing for Dallas, with players punking them in free agency.

    We're being ignored in the whole Whiteside conversation which is making me kind of nervous.

    With the offer to Parsons, that ship may have sailed.

    We can withdraw our offer at anytime since he didn't agree I assume.

    Yes but if you ever want to get a big free agent in the future you don't dare do that. Agents would stear clients away. A player would think he is next at getting dumped after offer was delivered.

    If they want us to stand around holding our dicks until Monday, it's not our fault if we start talking to other people.

    Yeah but we were being ignored in the Whiteside discussion all day. I was listening to every sports show on Serius radio and never heard our name mentioned. It was always Dallas and Miami. Maybe we will find out later who out plan A really was.

    @PtldPlatypus How much money would we have to trade away to receive Whiteside in a sign and trade if we were over the cap?

    We need 22 mil for Whiteside. We had 24 mil of space. We spent 22 on Parsons.

    That leaves 2. We can create about 15 more if we let Hark and Leonard Walk. That's 17.

    Need to get rid of about 5. Either Aminu or Davis should do it. Not sure I want to, however.

    A couple days ago he was saying it's based on the previous years salary or cap hold. 150% or something..

    If we're over the cap, our outgoing salaries have to be within 50% of the value of the outgoing salaries to the incoming salaries OR $5M, whichever is less. So in the case of trying to bring in $22M, we'd have to send out at least $17M.

    But sign and trading Leonard for $17M wouldn't work?

    No, because the base year compensation rule would only make our outgoing salary on that deal 8.5M.
