@JeremyNicolls It seems like it’s more on Klutch than Denver. No doubt they have offered a contract but PWat wants more $. Denver has no reason to budge. Klutch trying whatever it can to get him more $. Clippers kind of stuck waiting on the Kawhi stuff

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@APH00PS “Feet to the fire” lol. Denver has all the leverage

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@RevivedGamerHD @NBABlackburn I think there’s an order they could do it in where it’s legal - S&T for PWat first which puts them over the cap and lets them use the exception for Rui

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@Adam_Mares I thought taking back salary hard caps them AT the 2nd apron? Even after waiving and stretching Val, they would basically be right there or maybe slightly over after factoring in minimum contracts for the remaining roster spots

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@HPbasketball League really should adopt the NFL model with compensatory picks. Deals above a certain threshold of the cap become picks in between Rd 1 and Rd 2, smaller deals above a lesser threshold become picks after Rd 2

@JakeLFischer Watson won’t go there to be a bench guy

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@corvusglaive19 @followAdamA @NBABlackburn I mean Evan Sidery has no idea. Ryan does

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@followAdamA @NBABlackburn He has no idea how the cap works, he’s been posting rumors about trades or moves that are not even possible

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@JaredWeissNBA Whereas I believe they did it with intent to drive his price up. If you’re the Warriors and you see Denver and Minnesota above you in the LeBron sweepstakes you gotta make a move/offer more $

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@Adam_Mares It’s interesting to me that they listed Cam and no CB. PWat kind of makes sense since he isn’t signed. But does make me wonder if Denver has either committed to them that they’re keeping Cam if they get Bron and/or PWat would be gone (S & T?) if Bron signs with Den

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@jmorton78 Maybe but it also isn’t working out for the recent examples. Worked out for Grimes I guess but not Kuminga or Cam Thomas.

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@RFreemyer It makes sense with offense off the bench but I just can’t see them surviving with Tyus/Julian/Thybulle/CB/Spencer/Bagley as the main bench guys. Would need Cam and or Jamal staggering

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@NBABlackburn I’m guessing at least one contingency with PWat or Cam involves getting back a backup 2/3 which would make Bruce obsolete. Or maybe Bruce said I don’t wanna be 3rd string so let’s see how it plays out

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@rossjensen More data/longer track record and has done it at a higher level for longer. Willits could overtake him but let’s see it at AA first

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@Adam_Mares He’s not worth that money or the draft capital IMO but he is a good fit for them

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@NBABlackburn Could they sign (MLE-ish money?) and trade him for Cam? I don’t know how the cap rules work with that sort of thing. I imagine they would want to waive Jonas first to get under the 1st apron?

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@HarrisonWind Is it possible that instead of double per year he means overall money? So old offer was 2x2 for 4 mil, maybe new offer is 3x3 for 9 mil, something like that

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@HarrisonWind If they don’t win next year it won’t be because they don’t have THJ

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@jmorton78 Lakers I doubt. They have a hole at C and another starter with LeBron gone. Are they really going to tie up cap space on PWat and potentially end up with nothing? I doubt it. LAC are more concerning. They aren’t going to contend so they won’t mind waiting it out

[Greg Martino @_GregMartino]

@DNVR_Nuggets That looks like cheers on PWat’s new contract
