Kawhi not signing a max deal.

Per Shams - Kawhi is signing a 3 year deal for $103M with a player option in year 3.
This is a new development. Basically a 1+1... zero percent chance he takes that PO without injury or something crazy. He'll hit the market as a 10yr max candidate
Also means in two years, the league will have another shot at him.
Fun Fact - The New Orleans Pelicans project to have 10 year max space in 2021.
ETA: I worded it wrong but frick it. I meant it will work the same way as the 1+1, giving him UFA after year 10.

What I am more curious about is what other maneuvering this opens for the Clip Show.
Montrel Hazell has been on Twitter implying something shocking will happen today. Kawhi signing a 2+1 isn’t it, but it could open the cap space for it.

Yep
There’s a reason Kawhi has stalled on signing. The Clippers are about to pull off another move

How is it a 1+1 if the PO is in year 3?

Just curious, is that assuming we do not resign Brandon Ingram or Lonzo?
I really have no idea what our cap situation looks like in 3 years if we end up extending both BI and Lonzo

The 3 years might also indicate a sign and trade with Toronto as all sign and trades have to be at least 3 years (Keith Bogans rule).
Though probably has more to do with the 10 year vet max

I did. What I meant is it is going to work the same way the 1+1 they discussed for Toronto would have. It will get him UFA after his 10th year.

so wait, LAC won't even have bird's rights when he comes up for FA?

this makes sense b/c then they'd have his bird's rights
if he only accumulates 2 years, they won't have the cap to sign him i don't believe
*ETA: Early Bird's rights may allow him to get to the 10 year max

They would, but I could still see him opting in so that he could get the full Bird 5 year contract at that point.

Such as? Is there anyone left to make a “big move” besides Westbrook? And they aren’t taking him.

It could mean bringing in a key sub, like flipping Harkless and cap space to get someone like Iggy.
They had about $4m in projected cap space before the deal was announced. Kawhi taking less than the max added more space. And they can still order their transactions to pull off trades using a lot of that space.

He didn't take less than max.
The deal is max money, just not max years

Whoops. Don’t think they will S&T because it hardcaps them. But they could structure it to create space, sign someone else, trade for Kawhi into space, trade for PG with Gallo + Shai.
