SOHH.. the Lakers are going to use the stretch provision on Westbrook come Summer 2022?

[Anerdyblackguy]

That seems dumb considering his next year is his expiring year.

 

[ALonelyDad]

I will shoot myself

 

[FAH1223]

Oh hell no

I was saying if he got stretched by LAL, he’d sign back in DC on the minimum

You’re a worthless whore with a yeast infected snatch with no father

more cac humor

LAL being able to use the non tax payer MLE is the attraction here

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

It’s addition by subtraction &

And they'll still be trash

 

[O.T.I.S.]

Anybody else saw this coming?

 

[M.V.W.]

Deng still making $5m from the Lakers this year

Luckily he falls off the books this summer.

So they'll stretch him over 5 years so they can sign guys who won't stay past 1 year?

All that's telling LeBron is that they're worried about the lux and he ain't gonna like that. Stretching Westbrook basically amounts to a beyond MLE dead hit from next year all the way to 2025. $15.7 mil a year.


Milwaukee used the stretch provision on Larry Sanders in 2015. He still has a $1.9 mil hit on their cap. Think about this for a sec. Larry Sanders has been on the Bucks' books three years longer than Giannis has. At least in his case, the provision was breaking up $22 mil but that lasted 7 years. Charlotte stretched Batum instead of eating that last year and for what? So they could sign and trade for Kelly Oubre?

I hate 2 say this but im with bron on this forget the future before he got in LA we wont a playoff team for years and in his 2nd year he win a title who cares about 2027 unless you drafting lebron out the draft the draft is hit and miss i'd rather do everything to win the next two years because the future is bleak regardless unless you get another superstar.

I knew Russ wasn't gonna work with Bron, but I thought their talent will at least have them top 3 west.

It doesn't help that that soft bozo AD keeps falling apart every two months

I think they’d do it over 3 years

That’ll be a $15M cap charge so you save around $30M

[Edub]

They won a chip still paying luol deng for even longer…it’s just a couple years and it gives them some room…split it up

 

[FAH1223]

I don’t believe it
