A summer with duncan learning how to post up wouldnt hurt his game at all. Does he have that dedication???
Bank rate is missing a tax rate. Lma would be in the 11.9 bracket

Tax differences won't even offset a semi-decent sponsoring deal. You can forget about discussing the tax difference, it's a waste of time.
He's a finished product, IMO. What you see is what you get.
The issue is that every road game is taxed in the home jurisdiction. You play half your games on the road. 3/4 of those have state income tax, although a sw division team will play more away no tax games given the inter divisional schedule.
I actually think San Antonio is hot enough to be a negligent loss to sponsorship. Also the spurs low key at ude is a function of Duncan. If LMA wants pimping by God the FO will pimp
Also in regards to Duncan not playing with Aldridge, I think Tim will be around enough so this won't matter. Player coach, kind of.
That 3 year, 43 million dollar extension is going to cost dearly.
Alridge may be soft but he can put points on the board instead of the team playing 4 on 5 all the time
Correct, plus any decent financial advisor and/or cpa will get around quite a bit of the state tax issues. That is not a hard concept.
If fairness you could say the same thing about Gasol too.
1. I can't see anyone leaving about 25M dollars on the table for those reasons.
2. Any promise for a future contract is a major violation of the CBA.
3. It would require a 3 year deal to establish full Bird Rights, so he'd be leaving well over 30M dollars on the table. I have a hard time seeing any pro athlete giving up that much money.
him then. I think he works on it if he truly wants to get over the hump no matter where he plays
Gasol is a pretty great defender though.
Not even close. Gasol has a post up game
It will be interesting to see what kind of max deals he'll get. What's clear is he'll be leaving money on the table if he takes any deal that's over two years long too. Due to the current weird cap situation, if there's any odds of pulling something like this off, this is the time.
Forget about the promise, although it's somewhat implied that if there's no major injury, he's worth a max extension. The Spurs can simply make clear they'll like a long-term relationship with him but can only pay so much this summer. Then it's up to him.
0 for 6 in a must win Game 3 including an air ball lol. Dude is a nice player but $20 million???? Nah
Over the summer, when the whole Lebron stuff was going on, they had a couple of sports cpas do the math, and it was negligible...
How do you hide salary? You can itemize, you can incur business loss, but the ira is capped.
Hiding profits is a business thing.Also investment income can be worked with, but straight ,w2 income is hard to avoid
For him to get that new TV deal max money from the Spurs as you've described, he'd have to sign a three year deal at a reduced rate. If he really wants that new deal money, it's really not that complicated. He can sign a one year with any team. The cap is going up around 25M dollars from 2015 to 2016. Nearly every team in the league will have at least one max cap space slot that summer. He can then sign a 4 year max deal with any team, no Bird Rights needed.
setup a charity. contribute to it. deduct contributions.
Why couldn't he sign a 2 year deal, and simply extend with the Spurs for the max before hitting Free Agency? Wouldn't that allow him to extend for the max and also the maximum years, or am I missing something?
Fwiw fair treatment of Parker is absolutely important to other FA looking at the org. We honor his contract. We don't salary dump stars. We don't bury them under young upstart talent without a fair trial.
Anything less than that would send a red flag up. This is what separates us from a team like sacto. Sacto, the team that can't do with a legit all star big man.
I believe you need to play 3 seasons with a team to get the Bird rights.
But you can't get that charity $ back without shady like paying salary to yourself or spouse. I watched breaking bad, I know this
somebody gotta run the charity, tbh...
then again, that's pretty amateur... im sure pro cpas have better ways...
Two problems there:
1. Only contracts at least 4 years in length can be extended.
2. The salary in the first year of the extension (his 5th season with the Spurs) would be based on the salary of histhe contract's 4th year, a number that would be substantially less than the max salary for a player with his years of service.
Like I said, the quickest road to the money is a one year deal this summer.
