That's not how it works anywhere. Come on..

:what:

in what industry other than sports does it not work like that?

entry level workers - 50k
senior - 80k
manager- 125k and stocks
senior manager- 175k and stocks
director 300k and tons of stocks

look at movies

the star actor gets 10-40 mil while the "role players" get 3 or 4

Goodell era football is all about the QB's - they're ruining the league by making it a 100 yard Arena game now. WR's and RB's be damned, it's all about the QB now.

The NFL always been a QB league what are you talking about. All offensive positions are exchangeable except QB

What about Lebron Curry Harden you keep saying players this players that those players dictate these increases but share salary with Omer Asik who averages 7 points a game. Y'all argument doesn't make sense

Unless you want communism that is how the world works.

breh

we want the players to get paid....we just want the right players to get paid
Why? Are you part of the players' union?

If it's not ruining the quality of the game, why should you care who gets paid what.

Unless you are an agent for one of these NBA players it literally makes no sense for you to care what one player is getting paid relative to the next. If you feel some type of way about it, then boycott the games. By the way, these "superstars" that you are lobbying for will end up making way more than the average player when you factor in endorsements.

Base how players should be paid on gut feelings and not market forces brehs.

breh we want the players to get paid....we just want the right players to get paid lebron james and paul millsap should not have comparable salaries anthony davis and damian lillard should not be getting the same contract
That's Why I think each team should have 1 special slot they can use on a player to offer a contract with no Max, that won't count against the cap. If you want it to count, then it can count as a regular max on the cap.

That way stars like Lebron will be paid their actual worth, the rest of the league can get more, and the cap can remain intact.

Smart move I just think the entire model of the NBA is the worst besides NFL.
