    If they stretch exception him then it changes the cap number but I don't recall seeing that provision being invoked here (maybe I just missed it?) As for the team's obligation in real dollars being lessened when a bought out player signs with another team that might be the case, but the cap number doesn't change ... Steve Francis' full contract amount counted until the summer we went after Hedo.

    Fields signing was to prevent a Knicks S&T for Nash. T-dot is going to take this HARD in the ass. Breakdown:

    Basically since the MAVS are losing on deron, they'll use the money on Steve Nash for a fareware tour with Dirk. Maybe add Roy in there and its not a bad team to see.

    T-dot is now stuck with Landry fucking fields. Now they can't sign Jeremy Lin because the Knicks will match now that they are out of the Nash sweepstakes.

    Canada takes two big swinging dicks from Texas and New York. booyah.

    And they just drafted Ross. These are like treadmill moves, but they don't have what it takes to move even a bit forward.

    likely, they'll throw big money at Dragic, in a desperation act.

    Rockets withdraw QO to Courtney Lee - he is now an UFA.

    I'd love to grab Courtney Lee, but I'm a Lee-homer.

    I keep hoping the Knicks get shafted. I despise that organization.

    I dont see Lee as an upgrade over Wes and would rather see ewill/barton get the backup minutes
