This isn't good for NBA as an Entertainment vehicle.

what how?

Rookie deals about to become much more valuable

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

I honestly don't think we will flip Sap. I think we will do Sap/Al/D12. Naw, Al isn't going no where. More money. 7.5 percentage pay. 5th year. Much better team. Boston is in the same position as Houston right now. In fact, Houston got better weather and taxes. They offered Al the max and he doing his interviews like Kevin. He will come back to us with his offers to get more money from us. We will give. And Al will be back next year. If we didn't get Dwight, I would be worried but now, not at all.

nope but I do think that will give him leverage to get his money from Miami when he shouldn't need any.

Pat Riley playing Wade

If he doesn't get at least 25m per year in Mia it's a bad deal. He averaged 20ppg last season and was a main contributor in a playoff series win, and almost got them to the ECF

Just send the Cavs PJ Tucker on the humble

What's the penalty for teams that don't reach the salary floor?

nikkas In here crying for owners when the reason these contracts are getting handed out is because the owners are making bank with this TV deal

Y'all nikkas think the owners are losing ?

Stop counting other nikkas money and make your own

I asked this earlier in the thread but got no response.

Why is the TV deal more expensive than previous years? Will it be shown on more channels? Has there been more viewership?

Nothing they just have to pay the difference to the players on the team up until 85 mill...So if they are 30 mill under the cap floor they will split that 30 mill across the roster to the other players.

Nope thats just how much they chose to pay for the rights to air the content....

 

[#1 pick]

I would be. I am worried shytless if we lose Al regardless but I am saying, Boston or whoever pitches to Al would scare me a lot more. Getting Dwight is a move that says we are serious. Doing nothing and standing pat says that it's the Hawks being the Hawks and Al might just leave that type of team.
