Houston yall really gonna give a 33 Cp3 206 million SuperMax?

[ezrathegreat]

CP3 isn't the problem, We gotta get rid of Ryan Anderson, though. 20 million for 9 points.

 

[ALonelyDad]

What else are they going to do? All they can do is have the best team possible and hope one year that one of the warriors player is injured

 

[Kunty McPhuck]

Give him 2 years, he's 33 y/o and injury prone, which isn't going to suddenly vanish. By the end of the 2 years, if the Rockets still haven't won, they can move on and will only be a year into Hardens contract.

Is that 9 PPG or his total points in the playoffs?

 

[god shamgod]

That is why cp3 opted in and was traded to Houston, so he could keep his bird rights

They’re gonna max him or close.

 

[CrimsonTider]

I thought you could only get the super max from the team that drafted you?

 

[WhoShotCha]

Bruh Lowery making 30 mil a year lol. This not even the most egregious bag in the league. While I do think CP3 is a lil fukk nikka, I aint never mad at nikkas getting they paper off these crackas.

But it’s cool for Durant and Klae to keep taking 20% payouts right?

Larry Bird exceptionEdit

Perhaps the most well-known of the NBA's salary cap exceptions is the Larry Bird exception, so named because the Boston Celtics were the first team permitted to exceed the salary cap to re-sign one of their own players (in that case, Larry Bird). Free agents who qualify for this exception are called "qualifying veteran free agents" or "Bird Free Agents" in the CBA, and this exception falls under the terms of the Veteran Free Agent exception. In essence, the Larry Bird exception allows teams to exceed the salary cap to re-sign their own free agents, at an amount up to the maximum salary. To qualify as a Bird free agent, a player must have played three seasons without being waived or changing teams as a free agent. Players claimed after being amnestied have their Bird rights transferred to their new team. Other players claimed off waivers are not eligible for the full Bird exception, but may qualify for the early Bird exception. Prior to an arbitrator ruling in June 2012, all players that were waived and changed teams lost their Bird rights.[41][42] This means a player can obtain "Bird rights" by playing under three one-year contracts, a single contract of at least three years, or any combination thereof. It also means that when a player is traded, his Bird rights are traded with him, and his new team can use the Bird exception to re-sign him. Since the 2011 CBA, Bird-exception contracts can be up to five years in length, down from six under the 2005 CBA.[6][36]
