Clarkson counts against the cap at ~$2.3M instead of his contract value around $3.6M. Vets like Clarkson who have more than 2 years experience and sign for the minimum count on the cap as if they were only a 2 year experience player.

And I believe the NBA kicks in the difference, right?

sometimes I think about finally finishing the new Disney Wars trilogy but then I sit in silence blissfully imagining bobneptune being personally denaturalized by a stroke of Stephen Miller’s presidential autopen and then summarily banished to an El Salvadorian megaprison and I assure you that none of my expectations are subverted in any way as I work my excitement down

I watched acolyte and I’m a bit bummed no second series. Finally something non Skywalker family related.

It wasnt the greatest thing ever. But it has some good things to it. I guess it was just too expensive for what it was.

Yeah it’s hard to know what to do with that last slot.

If Mitch is starting with KAT then it makes sense to get another center. Huk may or may not be ready and you’d hate to be short if/when Mitch misses games. But then again Yabu can play some small ball center.

But if you star Yabu and Mitch is backing up KAt then the need is another PF.

Then again Clarkson and deuce aren’t really pure PG’s and I could make a case for bringing back wright to have a pure pg on the roster who is also a plus defensive player as that might be a nice look.

But then again Shamet is such a good shooter that he might be worth bringing back. I just don’t know!

Idk what we’d even want with the last vet min. Maybe another center? Could be Jock or anyone else.

Early Bird, that’s a good point. The web page I looked at listed Clarkson at $3.63M. The difference is about enough for a first year minimum

Thank you Early bird and Cybersoze.

Doogie – I have been joking about Jock since he was in college. And yes, I know he doesn’t shoot much.

It’s a bit.

To add to my question, those twelve player’s salaries add up to almost the second apron and are only $ 2.195M short of the second apron, which isn’t even enough for two first year minimums. Yet we need to roster fourteen players.

Clarkson counts against the cap at ~$2.3M instead of his contract value around $3.6M. Vets like Clarkson who have more than 2 years experience and sign for the minimum count on the cap as if they were only a 2 year experience player.

BBA:
I haven’t seen the Acolyte, and now that it was canceled so quickly I’m not sure I’ll get around to it. Apparently it was another victim of Star Wars’ aggrieved turbogeek fanbase. It’s too bad. Manny Jacinto deserved better.

Owen:
You’ll love Andor. Please let us know what you think when you get around to watching.
