Exactly, that's my point. They all took paycuts to be in Miami. When will someone take a paycut to be in OKC? I know the thread title suggested that it was just to play with Lebron but my point is that every nikka on that roster took a paycut to be there.
Which is what I tried to convey to @tremonthustler1. No matter how good Minny ever gets they won't find a nikka willing to take less to sign there which is the basis of this thread.
nobody is underestimating this, its pretty obvious
were any other SERIOUS contenders offering the same contract boston was though?Ray Allen left 6 mill on the table to come off Miami's bench.
Honestly it's not, this debate started in the Paul George extension thread when I said that Indy had to overpay because no free agent was going to sign to Indy no matter how good they were. I told @tremonthustler1 that the same thing applies to his Timberwolves and that no matter if they won 65 games in a season they still couldn't get a free agent to sign there without overpaying. This has nothing to do with OKC for the most part, they're just an example that just because you have a superstar and win a lot of games it doesn't mean nikkas want to move to OKC for half of a year.Even though he said LeBron, we ALL know this is @Blackthoughts way of shytting on OKC because Iggy took less money to play in GS. Don't deny it either
Which is my point that I don't think anyone can disagree with. Except for the part of Texas, Houston and Dallas is great, nikkas don't want no parts of San Antonio tho.
And what I'm saying is that my team is so far away from this dilemma that it isn't worth mentioning. Give me the situation where we are that good again and I could care less who's taking a paycut.
