OKC is really close to the tax... would be slightly surprised if they matched a significant/max offer
hes a restricted FA if OKC matches him he will be forced to resign in OKC
Blazers
OKC cannot let him go. It's not even a choice.
but harden was?
Once shot, twice shy.
Nice...that will cost dem some of their bench guys and a lot of money.
Thank you Portland! You are so good to us.
Hope blazers get him...
Fool me once, shame on me.
Fool me twice... Shame on... .
Way to force there hands portland
hopefully okc doesn't match, would help my fantasy team
max deal
I hope OKC matches this
YEAAAAAAAH
Me too.
I hope OKC matches this
NO way OKC can keep him. They will never pay the tax
Then they'll founder & sink.
with the new money, they may as well
CROFL, after the Singler extension they're less than $3 million under the tax line if Kanter walks. At the lowest possible salary Kanter could take on a 4 year deal for $70 million, namely $16.5 million, they're about $13.5 million over the luxury tax.
The first $5 million they pay $1.50 per dollar, for $7.5 million in tax
The next $5 million they pay $1.75 per dollar, for $8.75 million in tax
The next $3.5 million they pay $2.00 per dollar, for $7.0 million in tax.
So signing Kanter will cost them $16.5 million in salary and $23.25 million in luxury tax. I don't know, is Kanter a $40 million player to you?
^I'm still holding out hope, bum.
So the tightass who has never spent a cent in luxury tax and who let Harden walk for nothing useful is going to pay out $23.25 million in tax this year? I think you got a better hope at going 1&47 this year tbh.
Word is they're looking to salary dump PJ3, Augustin, and Novak which would shed almost $9mCROFL, after the Singler extension they're less than $3 million under the tax line if Kanter walks.

Maybe they learned their lessons. And Harden hasn't exactly been much to write home about.
