Cap going up has really restricted player movement

Kinda boring that most players are staying with their teams

I said it before, I'll say it again...there is no better job on earth than being a mid-level NBA role player.

You get to condition and stay in shape all year, eat gourmet food/travel in private jets, get paid a shytload of money to score 7 pts/5 rebs a game, avoid all the pressure and stress the superstars endure. It's a lovely life to be an Aminu in this league.

cap going up paying 10 mil a year to quincy acy will be a steal down the road

Spoiler

yeah i was just looking at the salary and scust
if a khris middleton is getting 14 mill, demar who averages liek 18-21 a game may get like 18-20 mill

He's gonna ask for that kind of money but DeMar doesn't really fit on any teams though (can't shoot 3s, doesn't pass, can't defend, shoots way too many contested long 2s) and he is way less skilled than Middleton is. Middleton posts up smaller players really well, he can catch and shoot, he can guard the 2-4 and he doesn't need to take 15-20 shots every game. Middleton played incredibly well with Jabari out.

I think it also has to do with nikkas not just moving for the fukk of it and staying in situations where they have teams that can contend/make playoffs. This ain't 2k where nikkas just gon move for the fukk of it because another team can offer the same money or a couple million more.

We should make sure this is on every page for the idiots that dont know

A dumb deal is a dumb deal regardless of cap structure.

[Houston911]

Monta ellis is the steal of the offseason

Hes worth 10 mil easy....even without the cap jump

[HoopLife]

exactly...because in the 2010-11 season he had Chauncey Billups as his PG...he had Mike Bibby the following year.

Billups only played 20 games with Amare that year. He was old and ineffective. They traded him to the Clippers. Raymond Felton started 59 games that year playing with Amare. Are you trying to say Felton was the reason why Amare avg 26ppg?
