That's what LJ is saying -- a Noccioni like contract is 3year/11.5M. Is he worth that to start out?Quote:
If he has confidence in his game he won't hesitate to take a Nocione type contract to work up to the big payoff later

Given the title of this thread I thought I was going to read about another bike accident involving a Spurs' draft pick.
How much could Scola possibly expect to make?Quote:
$6.7 million in 5 years for the leader of the reigning Euroleague champion and the best point guard in Europe?
From the team whose spending ranks 4th out of 18 teams in the ACB?
BTW, Jasikevicius' contract allowed for a buyout ONLY if he joined an NBA team -- not another Euro team.
hey, Manu just got a BAC (Big ass contract) have him fork over 2 mil for his boy. He could probably defer it or something. Any of you capologists know how that could work? I know that Troy Aikman deferred a lot of his money to help the Cowboys back in the '90's. But that was the NFL cap.
Anyone know what Manu's buyout was?
front load back load payouts are still averaged out over the length of contract for cap purposes...adjusting Manu's contract wouldn't change anything from a cap perspective...
as for the Spurs / Manu having any kind of agreement to pay Scolas buyout in an attempt to circumvent the cap, "the NBA will investigate if it suspects that an outside person or organization is paying a player on behalf or at the request of a team. If they find out that such an event has occurred, they will penalize the team. For the first offense by a team, the fine can be up to $2,500,000, forfeiture of a first round draft pick, and/or voiding the player's contract. The penalties increase for subsequent violations. "
looking at what slug PF/C's went for this summer I would have to say yes...If he works out he will be a relative bargain...Quote:

and as Spurs fans after all these years of hoarding cap room we need to adjust our mindset...for years to come we will no longer have cap room but rather have the MLE and LLE available every year if the Spurs choose to use it...the "new" cap for the Spurs is now the lux tax number...and with the CBA set to be renegotiated next year that number could go up significantly...that could easily be the quid quo pro for the players association agreeing to shorter contract terms...
if he is not
they need to package him along with rose to get a big that would play
I think 3 years 9 or 10 million will be enough, Scola will ask for minutes more than money.
BTW, Nocioni was the Star of Tau this season, not Scola, now that Nocioni is leaving TAU Scola will be the leader of the team.
but Nocioni got 3 years 11.5 mill because his buyout was of 4 mill while Scola's buyout is will be 2 mill.
Like I said earlier in this thread, I think Scola will get 3years/9.9M (3rd year team option). And I think that would be fair and worth it.
BTW, I think Nocioni's buyout was 3M, not 4M.
