Remember when the CBA was supposed to prevent super teams

[FaTaL]

The max actually allows it to happen

at least you get your guy for 8 years before losing them.

The players rejected cap smoothing when the TV deal kicked in so as a result it cleared the way for the Warriors to be able to sign Durant

Thank the CP3 and Bron for that

It wasn’t used to prevent it but they are going to make you pay an exorbitant amount of money per year to keep it going.

That tax raises every year and it’s up to ownership to either break it up, adjust, or pay.

Your favorite teams sustainability heavily relies on the ownership groups pockets.

All remaining contracts should just be grandfathered in, if the player agrees to it.


Then the NBA should go into a free market, where teams can bid for players, and then transition into a transfer market, similar to the one in the Euro soccer leagues

Cheap owners like okc ruin the product for fans.


Then you got cleveland situation. Cant get bron real help because hard caps and bad contracts


Just because the owners are stupid doesn’t mean the fans should suffer for it for decades. (Like all the other fan bases)

You said cavs.


Who had to have hometown kid gifted to them. Then when he left, the nba gifted them 3 first overall picks out of 4,

Do I really need to pull up numbers from other small town markets

The new CBA was supposed to stop super teams from forming, yet the 2010 Heat and 2017 Warriros are a direct result of the cba

2010 heat were before this current cba

Nah they still could have made it work

Currrys ankle got him 4 years 44 mil instead of 5 years 75 mil right?

They would have had to move someone, but they would have kept the core of Curry/Klay/Draymond still

The problem was the cap jumping by like 40 mil in one summer

If they would have spread it out over 3 years then Durant doesn't happen

Or Harrison Barnes not shytting the bed in the finals in 2016.

Of course. But sports fans are stupid and the NBA likes it's cartel structure. They won't allow free market forces to enable the league.
