    Twitter reactions to the NBAPA choice to not accept

    Twitter reactions to the NBAPA choice to not accept

    no because built into the proposal (at various times) were several things that would have really harmed the guys on the lower end. 1) the owners would have been able to send players to the DLeague and pay them only 75K 2) the stiff luxury tax was essentially the slow road to a hard cap...

    Lockout!!!

    Lockout!!!

    with a hard cap they wouldnt be full guarantees...it would be impossible. i think the new cba, while it doesnt ban guaranteed contracts, also doesnt require them. also @ricbucher says New proposal would allow teams to send players to NBDL first 5 years of career and reduce pay to pro-rated...

    Lockout!!!

    yep looks like the players let themselves get smacked around. another win for the oligarchs. if 400 players with an average salary of $3 million dollars can't avoid being mugged by their employers...exactly what chance do the rest of us have?
