The Dude Abides 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2007 Well, I was looking at some numbers, with out counting in our QO that we have handed out and some questions about Frans cash, is this correct..Im thinking out loud here and tryin to make sure I have this right, and what yall are thinkin this means.... Money already committed next year: Hedo - $6,373,900 D12 - $6,061,273 Battie - $5,200,000 Arroyo - $4,000,000 Pat - $3,818,750 Keyon - $3,586,000 Trevor - $2,710,800 Boguns - $2,710,800 JJ - $2,000,160 Jameer - $1,961,609 Augie - $687,456 total: $39,120,748 reported deal with Shard 6/yr... $18,400,000 (does the entire sum of his first year go on our books?) that puts us at $57,520,748 while the cap is set at only $55,630,000 We are so already over the cap! implications? How does this effect the guys we gave QO to? do we hafta renounce them, or can we still sign them and go more over the cap since they were under contract with us last year? How does this leave us in the eyes of the CBA... what options do we have going forward? Being already over the cap? does that hog tie us with how we can deal with other temas? and how those deals can be done? are we saying we are fine with our squad for the next forseeable future. Im just tryin to look at this BIG picture style with some money included into it...there hasta be something else in the works right??? where do you see any wiggle room after looking at this and where and what can be moved for trade exceptions or whatever we hafta do - see my question above.
