the "option NOT exercised" team

still doesnt prove your point. i worked with an innacurate source, i now see that, but none of the you provided here proves what you were saying in the beginning, i.e. that they would be lucky to attract even a borderline good player next offseason. show me your basketball smarts, not just your google searching prowess

Never said that. Just that you were obnoxious and wrong. That case is closed.

Just move on.

Perhaps you should polish up up the simple things before you try to get into any sort of advanced basketball debate.

Actually more than your number was wrong. Once you renounce players and trade away contracts and drop below the cap, it becomes a hard cap. You can't just go back up to what this year's payroll is. If you're really at 23.5M, you can only go up to whatever figure the salary cap is for next year. More bad news: you get charged a minimum figure for every empty payroll slot, because you have to fill it.
