So apparently a significant part of the $50m Ballmer invested went to other urgent payments and not to Kawhi. Kawhi received 3.5m of his third...
Two parties bought this to the SEC, Ballmer and Oakhill capital, both parties are listed by their investment amounts but not by name. There is a...
This case has taken a few interesting turns: Two days ago, one of the CEO’s came out and said that it wasn’t a no show endorsement of Kawhi....
Rui to me is a great third scorer on a Luka team at the PF. And LeBron’s on his way out of the lakers or retirement, either this year or the one...
This trade doesn’t work without a 3rd team. It can’t be Rui & Dalton for Wiggins because the contracts don’t fit. I’d prefer if it was Gabe,...
Correlation does not equal causation is one of the funnest research topics. It’s like when people say eating ice cream at the beach has a...
It’s not ok to cheat. But we have to be realistic about these things. I don’t see where the appetite to bring Balmer, the clippers and Kawhi to...
Could you explain this analogy to me? I don’t underhand it?
I think when it’s all said and done, the owners know that Balmer will be close to paying the most amount of luxury tax out of anyone because he...
I’ve said it before, but I just don’t see the appetite from owners and/or the players association to really go into this too deeply. The...
If this is the case, find some proof that sticks, and make an example of them. That's cheating that helped them build a better team.
You’re not circumventing the cap though. There was no advantage to the clippers in building out their team, it’s not like Kawhi took half the max...
This is one of the reasons why they have signing on bonuses in football I guess. But they also don’t have a hard cap. I think the next CBA has...
This isn’t true, Kawhi was promised equity in the company to the tune of $20m in shares. And 7m per year in endorsements for 4 years. He only got...
Like I said, are you really circumventing the cap if the guy got paid the max? He’s being paid full value already. This would be far bigger news...
Also another point that’s worth stating is: the clippers didn’t really benefit from paying Kawhi extra. He was already on a max, it’s not like...
It is obvious, and you’re right. But you can’t go punishing people without clear proof - that’s just the reality of the situation. For the...
I just don’t believe the NBA has the appetite to go after Balmer. He’s good for the NBA, deep pockets that means he’s willing to pay taxes so the...
While we’re at it what about LeBron’s involvement in Klutch? We all know he has sway with his management company. That’s a clear misalignment of...
I’m not calling any forum poster naive, I’m trying to say all of us fans would be naive to think that this kind of stuff doesn’t happen more than...
