    Brian, did you get confirmation on waiting 7 days? Quick still making it sound like the second they waive Web/Miller they can submit their offer sheet?

    Jason Quick ‏@jwquick
    Of course, those waivers can happen any second, but the 72 hour clock to match would not start until that happens, Nic signs, & POR receives

    A lot of empty threats from Kahn today; MN now moves on to Courtney Lee.

    Question. Now both Miller/Webster's contracts were non-guaranteed contracts that had to be waiver prior to June30th, but both were extended and changed to team option contracts. How does that affect the situation? They're not being waived, but rather terminated. I'm assuming the language of the contract changes how they're handled?

    It was never clearly announced how the contracts were changed or extended because originally BOTH had to be waived by June 30th.

    If they were changed to team options that had to be exercised by say August 1st, where are we at with this situation?

    Pretty sure Quick knows, he's been calling that no offer sheet is ever submitted. Probably playing ho-hum until something final is announced, no point speculating like Haynes.

    yeah I knew I had read it, and saw his tweet earlier, but I couldn't find it so I just wanted to confirm. besides, he has been sending these out, yet nobody retweets, than they end up tweeting later thanking someone else for the info that is only partially correct. :lol

    Good question. That could be right.

    My gut feel is that it falls under this aspect, since the moratorium's already occurred and we're in "new season":
    Since it's a "Team Option" and not a "ETO", then I think that clause applies.

    BTW, if you have any info on the mechanism of them moving the date, I'd love to see it. The most I could gather was that the non-guarantee date was "moved to facilitate trades".

    Like I said before, Kahn NEEDS this to not blow up in his face. Portland matching is one thing, but for it to completely collapse because he screwed up the CBA is NOT an option for him. No free agent would ever go to Minnesota again, they'd be the laughing stock, and Love would be packing his bags.

    Now granted, Kahn deserves to be ripped for many things, his draft record and big mouth definitely, but as I mentioned above, I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt on the terms of the deal, simply because his career and reputation are completely on the life. You don't risk everything unless you know something.

    Most of the time anyways...
