So extra endorsements do not technically circumvent the cap, but the max contract money.
If Kawhi would have signed lower like 100m$/4 years, this would have looked much worse.
I'm not getting your logic.
If I put capital into a company and have them pay my player under the table...payments that avoid the LT, avoid apron penalties and provide a way for my team to have an advantage in signing and retaining said player, I have absolutely circumvented the cap.
This is so much worse than Joe Smith. The only way this isn't a big deal is if so many teams are doing similar things that a majority of owners want this squashed.
