The link says it is about Jonathan Stewart news but it also mentions several players that got escalators based on excellent play.

Stewart had a base salary of 1.74 million which grew to 2.74 million as a result of an escalator in his contract for hitting several performance marks.

Thomas Davis tripled his base salary from $700,000 to 2.2 million. Imagine if he played all year.

Brayton increased his base salary from 1.8 to 2.1 million.

If I read this correctly it sounds like those escalators put our salary cap for 2009 over the top. So Diggs getting extended actually reduced his 2009 cap hit so we could stay under the cap with those increases. I think Pepper's 1.5 million was already included in bonuses likely to be earned and part of the cap. I wondered why they extended Diggs at this point for cap releif when there isn't going to be a cap in 2010.

      I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By frankw · Posted

      Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
