https://public.tableau.com/views/NBASalaryTaxCalculator/Dashboard1?:embed=y&:showVizHome=no&:display_count=y&:display_static_image=y&:bootstrapWhenNotified=true Right now, with our 13 guys, our tax amount is about 1.3 mil. Add a minimum for the 14th with a cap figure for 1.7 mil, the tax would jump to ~4.5 mil. Add a 15th guy for the same cap figure, the tax would jump to ~7.1 mil. Effectively, adding a minimum guy is actually double his actual contract. And it would be near impossible to drop that much salary if things go south and we want to duck under to avoid a repeater next year. I don't see it happening. 14 is going to be it.
