I started following NFL seriously since 1998 (before that, I was mainly a college football fan). Did not want to be a Bandwagon fan. So picked the worst team, the Colts, and have stuck with them ever since. Have you admitted this to PQJ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I am not saying Colts are the worst team. Indy was the worst team (record wise) in '97 and had drafted PFM. Anyways, sorry guys for thread derail.

Jaime L Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 5 hours ago, Fez said: No, because max contracts are based on a percentage of the salary cap, not a hard value. As the cap goes up, max contract size goes up. But at the same time yes, because the cap is going up so much, in a sense it would be possible to have 4 max guys to start because your old max guys are no longer going to actually be max guys anymore until they sign a new contract (Because contracts don't say things like 'will be paid 35% of the value of the salary cap in 2017' they say things like 'will be paid $23 million in 2017'). Good post. Yeah, that's what I was getting at where these two giant jumps in the cap potentially present a unique opportunity for a team like the Warriors to fit in 4 max guys, because the old max contracts Klay and Draymond signed are no longer true max contracts in the current environment. And seeing the math laid out, it makes sense They can make a big push for KD because of it which continues to blow my mind. I can't think of any equivalent where a very recent champion has a chance to add a superstar and not lose a starter. Or they can continue enjoying their current luxury of having both stars and depth. Their stars are just entering their prime now and even their role guys aren't that old. I was mistaken in my last post. They could credibly run out the exact same team another 2-3 years if they so choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsay B. Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Holy shit Curry went bonkers in the 1st half. 13-14 fg, 8-9 from downtown for 36 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaime L Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Wall put up a 41/10 on 17/25 shooting and they still got blown out. Curry hitting 11 3's will do that. Were Wall and Curry covering each other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were both just killing it regardless of who was covering 'em. Wall was driving at will for much of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabronius Maximus Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Russ vs Steph on Saturday should be a hell of a matchup. Westbeast will light up GS, who will in turn light up the thunder. I see a similar score to today's game (but am hoping for a highly competitive tilt that comes down to the end). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it helps draw fans from the key 8 year old little boy demographic whom you know every one of which wants to grow up to be a Pirate Wizard.
