I so disagree
 
I respect KD even more for taking that discount. It's Brady-esque -- taking less so the team can win more
Except KD isn't married to someone worth like twice as much as he is

The new NBA cap is screwing teams over. Will be interesting next year, gonna be a bunch of stars but no cap space
 
The NBA needs to up the cap, and get rid of max deals. That's the best way to cut down the salaries for bench guys and hopefully create a little more parity in the league
Because the cap raising worked the first time.

Also, how would getting rid of max salaries fix it?

Institute a hard cap with no soft cap. I can't think of any other way to fix it.

Like, this new salary was done to give small markets an advantage to resign plays, but team's just sign guys for 1 year then re-sign them. Or whatever.idk how it works to be honest but it isn't working.

Not sure which one to believe more

If steph curry is a "great" defender or that the pelicans will be a top 4 team this year

Bamboozeled
Did you not read what I posted above? Top 4 team is guaranteed. I already put my yearly salary down on it. Easy money.

Coulda had more money somewhere else so nah hes going with rings and a little less money actually


And yea idk them but acting like having 200M or 220M is gonna fucking kill you, you need to check yourself

200 fucking million, just sit back and realize how much that is. 20M wont make your life any better. And you always say guys wanna play where they can win and enjoy themselves lol, so why would he randomly go to the kings or some shit for more money. Clearly chose rings
