The MLE is going to Bjelica. So no money to sign a FA, except for the bi-annual exception, which is not enough to attract anyone worthwhile...

Exactly. In my case it was football and we all padded our weight by an extra 20-25 pounds to make us look bigger (on paper anyway). Sometimes perception is everything. There are certain markers that put people into different buckets in other eyes i.e. "six feet" vs. 5-11 or "7 foot" vs. 6-10. I'd put a little extra padding in my shoes too if that extra inch or two might lead to more money. Okafor for instance... I'm sure he wouldn't want us calling him 6-9'. But that's what he is without his lifters in. That's all I was getting at and curious about.

Yes. Football was when I was 6'2" and they added about 30 pounds.
I was exposed by a college coach for inflating those numbers.
