Idk their cap details but that $3.4 million could be the difference in the end of being a tax or not team or getting another difference maker while also gaining a pick. Going forward, there’s no guarantee GSW finished mid 20s. That pick could also be used as a sweetener down the line on another player. Not an A lister but if someone is selling a B level player for the best offer, it’s something.

I guess I missed when it happened, but how are Suns fans feeling about Rubio?


I mean, he's light years better than no one, which was the Suns previous PG situation.

It helps not have Ayton or Booker be super unhappy and want out at least.

Is anyone other than Iguodala a likely buyout candidate to join a contender?

From my list of the top 50 free agents, the only ones left besides Kawhi are Cousins, Green (waiting on Kawhi), Oubre (RFA), Marcus Morris, Jabari Parker, and Willie Cauley Stein (no longer RFA). And then there are 18 other guys left who were on the CBS Top 80.

How do Buyouts work? I assumed there was a limit on what you can buy out and Iggy has 17 mil left on his contract

If they buy out do they still have that cap hold?

I think the Clippers could take 9-10 million before it effects them with KL.

So clips will have just enough for a Kawhi max.

They're still fine for a max. They had 44 I'm pretty sure before this trade

Ok interesting. I think Harkless is a pretty decent player and could help them if they do get Kawhi with "load management".

So the Clippers get a future first-round pick to take on Harkless, who is another starting level forward with significant playoff experience to surround -- potentially --- Kawhi Leonard.
