re: Your thoughts on the RFA rules in the league

So the rockets could have offered max and said "you either pay him that or play against him 5 times a year."
That's why they tie up your cap space for 3 days when you make an offer. Phoenix didn't offer Gordon to spite us, they did it because they thought he was a cornerstone. Phoenix wiffed on Gordon, then wiffed on Mayo. Trying and missing can really hurt you. I think the tying up your cap space is a pretty significant deterrent and probably part of why no one made a run at Pekovic this year. If there was no cost to making an offer then you'd see teams trying to screw each other or making non serious offers, but pretty much every RFA offer is legit even if it's over priced.

if you want to see the ultimate "oops" in this regard, look at the raps trying to make the knicks overpay for landry fields...then getting stuck with him at like $8M a year or some insane shite
