lol and then when all the fans of teams realize they cant compete and teams start to fold, what then.

i guess you just wanna watch 8 teams?

If boston NY, LA, clips, Portland and one or two other teams spend 350 million while the rest of the league spends 200 million (if that) and fans realize their team is not even competitive, what then?

I guess you just wanna watch a league with 8 superteams

This is just propaganda bullshit. Baseball for a long time didnt have luxury taxes and they did just fine.
 
NBA fucked up by having a salary cap. If it let teams spend as much as they wanted it would start getting good again. Who gives a fuck about shit cities like Milwaukee, chiraq, and okc.

LOL the best league in america, with the highest grossing sport and industries has a hard cap, yet you think having an unlimted cap is the solution?

If its so wonderful then how come the NFL, NBA, SOCCER, NHL, etc doesnt use it?

There must be a reason why?? Or is it they never thought of it and researched it but some slub on the internet got it figured out?

They dont use it because its not as lucrative to the owners you fucking moron. Are you seriously this stupid? 90% of the owners in sports are jews, amd they are notoriously fucking cheap. Fucking Reindorf just sold an amazing prospect for cash lmao.

So you mean they set up a system that maximizes money for all the owners? Really? Imagine that. So your idea of having an unlimited cap would not make them more money? Then why the fuck should they implement it??

Could possibly happen but I think you would see fewer and fewer rookies. Especially if the player union has their say. They want extra money available to the veterans. That was one of the reasons for the no high school rule. Teams were drafting players and they were sitting on the bench taking a roster spot from a veteran.

Besides a few top rookies why would you take someone who would normally go in the 16th spot instead of a veteran or younger player who has already proven themselves.

I don't think less rookies is a bad thing (not saying you do). Most of them can't play and each season you see a bunch of 1-2 year rooks drafted, which leads to veterans going to Europe, Asia or rotting away as free agents (BIG3!). When they get the call again they're rusty or get injured.

There has been a lot of talk recently about bringing back HS's. They make a good point like with Simmons who wasted a year (turned out ironic). Others want to force them to stay in college for 2-3 years. Either way it doesn't matter how young they are if there's no draft and you go with just a hard cap. They'd still get gradually larger contracts. A lot of the small rookie contracts you'd see would be roster fillers mid-season.

Id rather see a hard cap than no cap like some of the people in here have talked about. Im also pro HS coming out. You make kids stay in school for 2 or more years and watch the NCAA violations skyrocket.

I want to see the league do away with luxury taxes all together. Why punish teams for not being cheap asses?

b/c the money is used half for league revenue sharing, and the other half goes to non taxpaying teams since 2012/13

this basically gets the smaller market owners that generally can't afford the tax to buy in, as they get something for literally doing nothing

Should just eliminate salaries

TBH this idea is spot on since ~95% of the NBA "talent" these days should actually be paying to play on their teams (snitch'angelo, ingram, etc come to mind).

Only LAKES player that should be allowed to draw salary is True at this point.
