Thunder now have 3 of their top 4 players signed under long-term deals. Ibaka will go from 2.2 M/year to about 12 M/year.

Here is a snapshot of their current salaries:
Durant - 16.7 M
Westbrook - 13.7 M
Ibaka - 12 M
Perkins - 7.8 M
Harden - 5.8 M
Sefolosha - 3.6 M
That puts the Thunder at 59.6 M/year with just those 6 guys. They have 2 or 3 other guys making around 3M/year. They are going to be real close to that cap in 2012. Cap for 2012 is 58M and the tax level is 70M. I am hoping they can keep this unit together and would love to see Durant continue to make deep runs into the playoffs in upcoming years. We'll see what happens.
