As much as I would love for you to claim him, I don't think you can since he was not a min contract and you are over the cap |

Not sure why an MLE couldn't cover a claim. The waiver wire rule just pre-dates the MLE here. If not, no biggie.

Allan HoustonbillyAllan/Billy - What say you on a MLE being used to claim as long as it falls within the stipulations of said MLE? If no, then he has cleared waivers.

If you have enough to cover the amount, you can claim. Note, though, that TOs will have been declined

Would it make sense that the TO's are only declined if the player clears waivers? But if he is claimed then the new team gets the original contract fully

If they are waived in their third or fourth year, ie a TO had been picked up, then you get their BRs.
That's how it works in the NBA. We can make our own rules, obviously.
