Ok I guess you know more than NBA insiders.

I’m talking to YOU not an “NBA Insider” why don’t YOU have your own informed perspective instead of stealing and banking on someone else’s?

Yes, contracts aren't lifetime appointments but next summer there won't be as much upward pressure on salaries (teams below the cap forced to meet floor before season starts). Most teams below the floor don't have big money coming off their books next summer.

CITE YOUR SOURCES …why should anyone patently accept anything you write without referencing your information?

On the flip side, teams approaching or above the apron will be looking to shed salary by 1) not signing role players to big contracts and 2) dumping excess salaries on teams with cap space and including picks. This summer the salary floor was an upward force. Next summer the approaching 2nd apron will be a downward force.

Again, 2nd apron level teams or teams approaching that level have NEVER had the resources to hand out big contracts in free agency to begin like what are you talking about bruh lol those teams are OVER THE CAP how the hell were they going to give out big contracts in free agency to begin with? So this scenario that they’re now going to create “down pressure” on the rest of the market when they were never participants in that market under the previous CBA to begin with is nonsensical .. bruh turn off the ESPN and go actually read information for yourself and formulate your OWN thoughts …you do yourself a disservice regurgitating “hot takes” from content creators

masai is an idiot, you can literally wait till the season or even after to see if gary is still a fit and part of this core
instead just giving money away to above average players again

probably gonna be like 25-30 mill a year esp seeing what jerami grant got

Masai could have had a great start to a rebuild, instead he's doubling down. I don't get it, not like his job would be in jeopardy if he went the rebuilding direction. What is this team's ceiling?

 

[FAH1223]

They gave 11 million out of 12.4 million.


I don't think they are hard capped.

Bobby Marks says LAL is hard capped at the first apron $172M
