What I dont understand is why so many people think things like bird rights and money are going to change dramatically under a new CBA. Have you ever seen the money go DOWN? If anything all of these guys have been getting richer. Also, why would the NBA hurt teams who want to keep their star players?
The new CBA probably won't be dramatically different from what we have today. Really the only change I think it needs is to get rid of guaranteed contracts so players like Curry don't hog valuable cap space and bench pine. I doubt that will happen. It would also be nice if they got rid of the cap so NYK could really be a player in the market but that wont happen either - just like players wont lose money under a new agreement.
Have you been paying attention, the sides are as far off as the colors black and white..
-scaling back exsisting salaries
-Placing franchise tags
-A serious hard cap..
Thats not even 1/10th of the issues they have
