That’s always been a rule… we’d need to spend like 20m depending on options
The eff does that even mean lol.
If the Mavs give up the 10th pick for Bogie, then our trade looks even worse than I thought it did. I still cannot believe the Jazz couldn't have gotten a first for him.
This isn’t new. It’s called the salary floor. It’s why teams rent out cap space rather than pocket the savings. I think this has been a thing since the 2011 lockout.
Hoop Collective yesterday they said now it is 90% of cap no matter what. You can’t be under at all.
K, I’ll look into it but I don’t believe that is true. How do they make a team do that?
It’s a complete nothingburger though. Think only one team ever fell below the floor and they had to pass out the difference to their players. I generally consider it cap mismanagement to be below the floor as worst case you can rent out a few million on an expiring contract for a second round pick.
There is some change but it’s a nothingburger.
Okay, so they beefed up the incentive structure. Now teams under the salary floor on the first day of the season no longer get the luxury tax disbursement.
This will help nix teams going into the season and just waiting on situations to develop where they can absorb a ******** of space. Makes sense since the players as a whole are going to yield A LOT of money through the mechanisms of the second apron which seems to already be changing team behavior.
European leagues aren't static things. Because a player busted 6 years ago out of that league doesn't really mean anything. They are evaluating these leagues on a real time basis and there is a lot more context than just "this player plays in the French league".
He is both. When he is good he is very good and when he is bad, he stinks the joint up. Very inconsistent.
