It's like the Caps are Ted's baby, much like the Bullets/Wizards were Abe Pollin's baby and it's like the Wizards are Ted's side hustle much like the Caps were Abe's side hustle. I'm happy that Ted will spend whereas Abe was a cheap b*stard, but we need someone in charge (a competent GM) who has a clue of what they're doing. I'm almost certain that we're going to pay Beal the max amount he can get so as to not let him walk away in free agency. Thing is, Beal is injury prone, but the team plays better with him, so go figure.
They shouldn't offer Beal a max contract. Why bid against yourself?
Give him the qualifying offer and let him test the market
