Could we do the opposite of that with Charlotte. MLE for PJ in 23/24. Becomes a Max contract if they don’t make the conference semi-finals .
It feels like we are back to either PJ or a trade for someone under contract. I have zero interest in any remaining FA. As a group, we are doing the same thing we do every summer…talking up guys we all thought sucked a few weeks ago when we had bigger aspirations.
Back to PJ…I’m somewhat encouraged that Charlotte still has cap space and can do this up to his $17.4mm hold under the cap. That number corresponds to the reports of him wanting something averaging $18mm. The question is how? And, why not yet? If Charlotte wanted THJ, this would probably already be done.
