    Yikes how does Westbrook feel seeing Durant so dominant with another PG?

    They will move Klay Thompson if necessary IMO..it would be the correct move, you could get a package of role players that could replace his production, for the most part..there will be many teams who will be willing to overpay due to the weight of his name..

    34m to 30m is more than a 11% paycut. Pretty hefty in all world's terms.

    Multiply your current salary by .89 and see if you would not be ticked off on that new figure.
    0 * .89 = 0

    Isn't this what most are hoping Chris Paul does? Take less money for a chance to win.

    F Kd but he's not doing what a lot haven't already done...Its the nature of this watered down, top-heavy league now. Salary cap does nothing to promote parity if players are willing to take less money.
    Brownie points for this post actually using the proper form of this word for the first time in this thread

    Today's NBA is such a ty product. No parody anymore, it's to the point of not watching between lack of competive teams and ty 3 point chucking all game.
    There's not much parity either.

    Would make it that much sweeter if the Spurs are the team that finally knocks them off next year (or 2019 more realistically).
    It's very possible. With prime Kawhi on the Spurs, anything is possible.

    Only 89% at most, tbh.

    Hopefully Spurs pull a '13-'14 on the Warriors for the enjoyment of us (minus throwing away 1 le).

    Signaling your intentions before you negotiate = fail.

    Give him a hug and a goldstar. He just wants other people to like him.

    Can someone explain how Durant taking less will allow them to keep both Iguodala and Livingston?

    The only way I see it working is he opts out and they keep just Curry's cap hold ($18.2mm) on and are at $73.9 million including minimum salary holds.

    Take out three minimum salary holds (say $2.5 million total) and you're left with about $30 million to spend between Durant, Iggy and Livingston. So he's willing to give up $10s of millions for a couple of years till they get his Bird Rights?

    I guess they could keep Livingston's cap hold on the books and sign Durant to more - but still not the max - and hope Iggy comes back at the room exception?
