Jared played for the title every year and was one of the best around at finding value out of nowhere.  But you're seeing a bit of the fallout over there with all those extensions and none of them discountable.  Even without the rule change, your Avs have $26.5m in cap space next season with $54.8m in extensions.  lol...

But this is kinda how Jared did it - he re-formed his roster 2 or 3 times in his tenure here.  And always came back in championship form, so, mucho kudos there. 

Despite that - I don't think delaying this a year is really necessary or helpful.  There's just as many contracts that expire in 20/21 - so if we shift a year, the teams that are getting hit hardest now would see some relief, but another group of teams with more 20/21 expiration's would end up on the sh!t end of the stick.  Tear the band-aid off quick, I say.  I am sorry for what that means for you.  A tough situation becomes tougher.
