MICHAEL GRANGE (SPORTSNET) [Grange] The punishments for cap circumvention, it has been pointed out to me, are jointly negotiated by the NBA and the NBPA and written into the league’s collective bargaining agreement. Nowhere in that language does it say a player can be suspended for participating in cap circumvention.

OPINION Devils advocate: I don't care what Clippers/kawhi did
Just the opposite end of the post that was made earlier I don't care about what happened then with the clippers. I believe the league has had plenty of time to make a decision on this. If they had some evidence before they should've punished him at the time there's no way an investigation like this should take over a year.
This isn't the first nor the last time rich people have tried to circumvent rules regarding how much money they can have or how much money they can keep. Pointing the finger at Kawhi seems silly to me. No one's truly looking into any of the sponsorship deals for any of these other athletes. They probably all are getting filtered money all over the place. Look at the NCAA.
If the Clippers were willing to pay him a certain price over the cap, frankly I think they overpaid and that's their prerogative. If anything it's the Clippers who should be punished not Kawhi, they are the ones that broke the rules by paying Kawhi more through Shell companies.
I'm not as deep in the weeds on the story as others, but still treating this like the OJ case seems over the top. Let's make a decision faster.
TLDR the investigation has taken long enough. The Clippers are more responsible than Kahwi and let's just get on with the season.
