I believe we have the full MLE available for a 3 year 21 million deal. There was a thread about it.

i think at least.

Yeah, that is dumb. Jimmer was playing at least as good as Wolters. I would have to think he feels like he is being jerked around by Monte.

Mid-level exception

Once a year, teams can use a mid-level exception (MLE) to sign a player to a contract for a specified maximum amount. The amount of the MLE and its duration depend on the team's cap status. The MLE was initially set at $5 million for a duration of four years for teams that are over the cap either before or after the signing, but under the luxury tax apron, which is $4M above the tax line. Teams above the luxury tax apron have an MLE that was initially set at $3 million with a three-year duration. Teams with cap room, previously ineligible for the MLE, have a new MLE, initially $2.5 million with a two-year duration. The MLE was frozen at the stated levels through the 2012–13 season, since then, it will increase by 3% per season (with the percentage based on the initial amount of the exception, and not compounded).[6] In turn, this means that MLEs in the current 2014–15 season are:
$5.305 million for teams without cap room, below the tax apron
$3.278 million for teams over the tax apron
$2.575 million for teams with cap room

he isn't an all world scorer, but he might be the best 3 and D in the league this year. He is a big part of atlanta's success. His 3pt shooting and defense has been as good as anyone's and his rebounding is also nice.

When jimmer was playing out bench was actually playing decently well...

Wolters runs the offence better tho, imo.

He played in Utah with most of Atlanta's team. I liked him as a player and I think he would be worth the Mid level. I just didn't think of him as a "stud".

someone get MM to confirm the MLE ASAP!!!!!! lol

I wholeheartedly disagree.

Cunningham used to be good at shooting. Now he blows at it
