Yeah I got confused cause the discussion I've always heard about supermaxes was about guys who qualified on the new rules like curry/wall/westbrook etc and not the 10+ year players. My B.

The 3 maxes are somewhat colloquilly referred to as "Rookie-Max" or "Mini-Max", Max, and Super-max. But yeah, it's confusing.

Add in the fact that you can be given a contract that is ABOVE your max if the salary cap grows slowly, though that hasn't happened in a while.

Yeah a 1+1 lines his contract up with Lowry and Gasol, and expires as the team segues into being The Siakam Team with maybe OG Anunoby and Chris Boucher featuring.

I'm thinking about Al Horford and Kawhi Leonard on the Los Angeles Clippers and am experiencing strange emotions but I can't remember if they actually have two max slots or they just pretend that they do.

Slowpoke! posted:

The new theory is Kawhi signs a 1 year deal with Toronto and a 1 year player option, and eyes a super max in 2021 when he would have 10 years of service. That would give him the flexibility of signing a supermax with Toronto or a 1 year deal somewhere else in 2020 and a supermax in 2021

There are risks though given the recent injuries to Durant and Klay, and Kawhi’s own injury.

I feel like a player of Kawhi’s caliber will command a supermax, even if the worst comes to pass and he gets injured. Same with Durant, he’s still going to get max money despite being hurt.

Is there any Kawhi deal that wouldn’t be an insta-sign? Like even if you gave him a blank contract and had him fill out all the numbers however he wanted, is there any way it’s a bad deal for the team as long as it’s an CBA compliant deal? Even with injury risk on a long term deal, if he’s in for 4 or 5 years any I think any team would be racing to sign the papers before he changes his mind.

No, Kawhi is one of the few players that a 1+1 is absolutely no risk for him. Regardless what he does he should probably not sign long term.

There are only like 3 or 4 guys in the league who should think like that though.
