<div class="quote_poster">Quoting AllNet:</div><div class="quote_post">Stubborn? you fail to realise how the salary cap works obviously. Even without Kenyon Martin's big salary the Nets would still be over the cap, which is why the Nets owner doesn't want Martin to return. Allen is expected to be a free-agent next summer where he will likely demand more than what K-mart has this year (90 million over 7 years) That is way out of New Jersey's price range.</div>
The Nets will have only 5 players under contract after the upcoming season. The total salary for those 5 players is $21M. Even if we give RJ the max, that would come out to 31M. We still would have about 13-14M left. We could easily sign Ray Allen for that money.
