Is Landry now going to be had for 2.5mil per?!
Thats freaking fantastic! That makes BCs' poison pill contract look brilliant in hindsight (load up the contract so Knicks cant resign, then stretch the contract to make salary cap room!)
And then that's extra good. If the normal waiver off-set rules apply after use of the stretch provision, then the Raps can subtract his new contract from the stretched salary instead of the original one.

hmmmm... Well I heard a rumor we wanted to go after Chris Copeland, the stretch provision would help us sign him and he would take Landrys minutes anyways.
Lowry
Derozan/Ross
Gay/Copeland
Amir/Novak
Val/Amir
and since we still have the MLE available, signing Marreese Speights and Gal Mekel will round out the roster!The Baltic Beast is unstoppable!

If I remember correctly, that provision was made so you keep the player and stretch out his contract. At the time they were using Al Harringtons as an example on Denver, they would've been able to keep him ad stretch out his salary. Basically your cap hit on a player would last longer than it's actual contract.Last edited by saints91; Sun Jun 30, 2013, 08:21 PM.
