Until it happens it’s fair game for journos. It’s also clear why the league is stringing this out. They don’t know what to do. Richest owner in the league, franchise in LA with a new arena. The guy got traded.

They have to do something harsh but probably don’t want to

The NBA only allows teams to pay players a maximum amount. They (the clippers) started a bullshite tree business and paid him through that business to bypass the restriction. That's the gist of it. In the grand scheme of life, it matters very little. I highly doubt this is unique either, this is just the guy that this journalist went after and exposed

Milking this for everything he can. I dont think casual fans even care. Silver seems too scared to do anything either.

They made no connection between this and the ongoing investigation. I am not sure what they are trying to show here tbh.

the NBA just wants this to go away
fine the clippers and take away a draft pick
let the trade go through, suspend Kawhi until Xmas and be done with it

He dove head first into the postmodern bs with most of the other talking heads that made ATH unwatchable.

They should though. Circumventing the cap should be a major issue with severe punishment if it happened. It would be a bad look if Sterling is forced to sell because he’s racist, but the new owner can blatantly cheat and the cheek is turned.

Why should I care?
AD had zero national commercials as a Pelican.
Goes to LA and immediately is in Ruffles commercials.

No one cared that college players were getting paid under the table. Why would anyone care if an nba millionaire is getting paid even more money under the table. And yes i get that it's against the rules, but i don't care at all. This happens all the time, the difference here is the Clippers and Kawhi were very sloppy and careless about it, kind of like how Will Wade was sloppy and careless about it when he was caught. Who cares. As if Jalen Brunson isn't getting money funneled to him in some way for being nice and taking less than his max on his contract.

The way I understand it he could have just been given a sponsorship or paid for marketing by a legit company for whatever amount, the issue is he never did any of the marketing and shite that he was "paid for" and I guess that raises concerns about opportunities for money laundering and shite (from a legality perspective) but I'm sure shite like this happens all across the US multiple times a day.

They just got caught because as you said they were sloppy as frick

What does one have to do with the other?

A. He wasn’t worth that max when he signed

B. He’s getting back 10x after he’s done playing with the NYK championship
