    I’d rather have boogie on a prove it deal, that’s a decent big 3, especially with Collins as the 4

    4. Have an arbitration committee determine the top 10 Players in the league, who will be allowed them to make 45% of the cap with a minimum contract making 1%. Player 11-20 could make 40%. Cap hits (not salary) for these "elite" max contracts could be the default 30% only if a team drafted them and doesn't have a player signed via free agency for over 25% of the cap, and hasn't traded for a Top 20 player in the past 3 years.

    i wonder who would have ever thought we'd value and pay nurk the same as meyers.

    what a great contract that one was! (for meyers at least.)

    After Nurkic signs his new contract, he can sextuple his money by killing Leonard and stealing his money. Meyers should hire some home security, like Nurkic, Sr.

    It's his wire-thin legs. He'll have to brace them at a 45° angle to defend guys the weight of Nurkic.

    I haven't read this whole thread. What is the status right now? Did Nurk take the QO and now we have him for the upcoming season or is something else still in play?

    He’s still a RFA.

    He has not signed nor accepted the QO.

    So we're waiting for him to sign an offer sheet elsewhere? Or we're negotiating a deal for him to stay? Could this be holding up other moves?

    If I had a clue what NO was doing, I bet I’d be pretty popular right now.

    If he gets an offer sheet we can match, if not and we can't come to agreement then he decides to play for the QO and be a UFA next summer

    At this point, we’d be happy just to know that NO has a clue as to what he’s doing.
