Pablo Torre: Did Clippers Circumvent Salary Cap w/ Kawhi?

[Donoghus]

I personally think this goes on anyways in sports and the Clips + Balmer/Kawhi got caught. Like Tom Brady, Lebron, etc. are we really gonna believe these guys don't get additional money through other non-traditional means, likely with the owner involved in some way?

For sure but, if true,  these people were dumb enough to let it go to bankruptcy where everything is hung out in the open.

I think the punishment should be at least as harsh as the punishment doled out against the team that obeyed all the rules and won the 2024 championship. Why slap the wrist of rule breakers but force a rule abiding team to dismantle itsel??

Oh yeah for sure. I'm not defending Balmer and the Clippers at all.

Pablo did say he's gonna investigate the Knicks and Brunson. Not that I really care but again, it could very well be Brunson took that paycut but was given more money "under the table" and also being in NYC and the marketing there has to help as well.
