NBA, NBPA agree on new 7-year collective bargaining agreement

[Shadow King]

Penalizing teams for re-signing players they drafted that never played for another franchise is stupid/asinine...A team like GS who drafted Curry/Klay/Green should not get hit with a tax for re-singing them.

No. Notice the market level of teams doing this.

So basically they created a hard cap without creating a hard cap

fukk injuries hurting your chances. That's life. fukk conditions. Play half a season and still get ALL NBA??? nikka please.

Play 65 games or don't get ALL-NBA and MVP. This load mgmt goofiness is pathetic.

I don’t think load management is nearly as serious as people think it is. Most of these guys are actually hurt

This will backfire on a smaller market team like the last CBA did the Thunder

As close to a hard cap the NBA will get?

Not a small market but a team like the Celtics’ ceiling will be capped once they have to pay Brown( a player they drafted) the super max because these other owners are some bytches

Trade deadline will be dead, this is ass. I fukk with the midseason tourney though

You would think this would prioritize and put more importance on utilizing scouting and development and not being so quick to throw away 2nd round picks.

Sounds like it. I was in favor of a hard cap strictly from a competitive standpoint but this seems like a solid place to be at.

True, but at the same time if/when you do hit on those guys it seems like the NBA wants it so that their earning power will be capped.

It’s wack.
