good article.

a reasonable hard cap with no salary max (but a team minimum salary) and minimum player salaries (so nikkaz aint making 100k a year) is ideal.

I like that better than just randomly slotting players...And I like anything better than the NFL system...That franchsie and transition tag is horrible...They will tag you 2 years in a row and release you if you get hurt in the 2nd year.

Yeah I said the same thing in the FA sticky thread. It'll be similar to the nfl but I can roll with it even if they don't have the non guaranteed contracts.

This isn't an NBA thing, it's professional North American sports.

"DON'T BE SELFISH! PUT THE TEAM FIRST! PLAYERS TODAY ARE JUST ABOUT MONEY!!"

"Oh hey so we're going to cut you .... nothing personal just business."

Steven A in my ear right now "GET UR MONEY!"...Skip tried to slide that "michael woulda took a paycut for rings"....Steven A like "The nikka made 30 per"!!!!...He taxed nikkas for what they did to the cold crush.

He should be able to do both

There should be a hard cap, not a soft cap

You know the soft cap is silly when @tremonthustler1 supports it
