How to resign CP3 with the Clippers?

[iker30]

Hi, I'm currently trying to bring CP3 back to the Clippers next season. He is always going for FA so I'm trying to resign him. But with all the expiring contract I can only come up with 16 to 17 Mio $ in cap space.

What are the real Clippers going to do to bring him back? Will they have to trade someone like Deandre Jordan or Caron Butler? I'm just trying to find the most realistic solution. If I keep all the players who have more then 1 year contract then I will not be able to resign CP3. But since I havn't read anything about the Clippers being in need to waive or trade somebody else I'm not sure how they plan to get this working.

Any ideas

Trade for a pick to free up space.

In Association Mode you want to play for the future sure Caron is okay now but he will not improve as much as Deandre Jordan nor play like Chris Paul.

If you can get a lottery pick you can draft a pretty decent rookie who wont be great year 1 or 2 but will have better potential long term than Caron at the moment. Hell you can even look at the attributes Caron has that you like and bascially draft the same type of player but for less money.

The objective is to PAY Chris Paul enough money to stay. Once you have done that then focus on filling other holes left by a trade.

IRL, the Clippers have CP3's bird rights so they can go over the cap to resign him without having to trade anyone. The game recognizes bird rights, but resigning/trading superstars has been a bug in 2K games for a while now.

Ok I see, so the Clippers wouldn't have any trouble resigning Chris Paul in real life.

In Association mode I will try to get rid of Butler, maybe use a first round pick for a new SF and resign Paul. But I'm always afraid that the rookie contract is already too expensive and there will be no more cap space to sign CP3.

I knew that the Clippers wouldn't re-sign Paul so I signed him and traded him back to them for some scrub they drafted in the 2nd round.

IF you don't sign your draft pick...I do believe they end up in the FA pool. So you can draft someone and then not sign them, then Sign CP3, and then sign the rookie fit here's enough money left over.

Well you draft and negotiate with draft picks well after free agency IIRC.
