    Not only is that illegal, but it was specifically modified for this reason in the 2011 CBA.

    No they didn't. It is 80% of the cap you have to spend I believe. But, the penalty is really no penalty at all. If they don't hit it then Paul just has to write a check to the current players.

    He classifys himself as a rim protected and maybe Neil sees that?

    Maybe. They could buy him out or deal him. Like what was said earlier, it's two picks for a million a piece. ASSET ACQUISITION

    So when get 2 free second round picks for this basically. Get to waive Haywood immediately and then buyout Miller so other then this costing PA a couple of million we are getting something for nothing.

    You know you're getting old when the team is making trades you don't expect to see finished in your lifetime.

    I'm pretty sure I will die of disgust before the next Presidential election.

    Not really anything considering they are still way under the NBA minimum and either have to spend it on new players or divvy it up to existing players. It's money that HAD to be spent

    Nah, you have to stick around to make fun of the new buffoon. It's one of the joys of life.

    This reminds me of the idea people have where they trade their car for a slightly better one. If they keep trading for a car just a bit better they could end up with a Ferrari or something.

    Did Cleveland run a Craigslist ad for Haywood?
