Marion's contract has an early termination clause according to both
Hoopsworld and
ShamSports. Does anyone know whether or not that's true and up to what point we could use this early termination option? It could make quite a difference to renegotiate a new deal with Marion at a lower annual salary, say 3 years at $4.5 million per.
Another question for CBA experts: If we re-signed Mayo for $10-12 million per year, would it then even be possible to sign another max player? OJ's level of success--and the money we would have to pay for him next summer--almost seems to make it less likely to sign another superstar next to him and Dirk.
