NBA FINALS & PLAYOFF CHAT

forget the cap. Ballmer won't be afraid to spend money. more to the point, you don't take a beating until you've spent 3 years in a row over it. and it will go up bigly the next year. in any case, they'll have the space or close to it. they'll dump Wilcox and Bullock, and you don't pay luxury tax till you're over 81M. the cap only matters when signing other teams free agents. they own Jordan's Bird rights

as for Paul and Carmelo being buds.... be that as it may, i didn't know Chris Paul was the GM. Doc is a lot smarter than that.
