Not legal. Contract has to be at least 3 years to do an extension. If we create cap space I'd expect him to get our $2.7 million room exception. If we don't have cap space, hopefully the $2 million biannual exception is enough.

I forgot about that...



you get the point though, he's great off the bench, gives this team energy that we didn't have before him. Definitely a guy that I wouldn't mind on this team. All we're missing is a starting SF and we're contenders imo.

I think 4 years. Smith had a 3 year deal, was not eligible for an extension. Also, extensions are true extensions, so the value in the final year is, in many cases, an anchor point for the value going forward... Basically, the next season's salary has to be in that "raise window" of 7.5%, unless it is a rookie extension.
