Before this year I never really paid attention to contracts, just the players. But now that our window is closing with the big 3, I'm all nervous because we desperately need some support if we want a good chance to get back on top. So i take a look at our contracts and it turns out we are already like 15mil over the cap, so we can only sign 1 player. In conclusion, this sucks. Half of our bench doesn't even play, so i feel like we're severely disabled. Then i take a look at the top of the list and i realized the big 3 are all being paid the league maximum. Actually, Garnett is about 5mil over somehow. So i add them together and it turns out just the 3 of them are over the cap for the whole team. Why don't these guys take a freakin pay cut and help out their team? Getting 20mil for being the league MVP is one thing, but Ray Allen barely made the all-star team.
Last year we lost Posey, Cassell, and Brown, and we gained nobody.
Now we're possibly losing Powe and Davis, and it's up to House if he wants to stay. If we can't sign anybody, then when everyone's contracts run out we're gonna be in big trouble. Out of the 14 guys on our roster 3 of them aren't even guaranteed, 3 of them have barely played in this league, and 1 of them is the 3rd to last draft pick. So other than our 5 starters, that leaves Tony Allen and Scalabrine. Danny better have something up his sleeve for 2010. I'm looking at the page right now and we've only got about 4-5 guys guaranteed for the year after next. It's gonna suck if everyone wants out, because it seems not many people want in.
