Market needs to adjust. Teams should be able to keep these guys at rates that won’t go up exponentially. How much Tyler signs for will be a really interesting indication for where the market’s at
I kinda like the aprons. Kept the Celtics from keeping their super team together, and it should give smaller market teams a better chance to be competitive
I hate all these aprons and bullshit caps to help out smaller market teams and all its doing is fucking up the ratings. Nobody wanna see Pacers vs Thunder 😂
Nah, the apron is good for promoting parity which is better entertainment. The players are just mad they have to move to different teams more frequently even though they still get paid.
Wait…why is the players union suddenly catching heat ðŸ¤
Ok but seriously, it was widely reported that the majority owners wanted the aprons to stop the new big money owners from buying titles. The wanted to stop the Joe Lacob’s of the world.
The players union signed off on it for more money. A bigger piece of the pie. It’s a simple negotiation. What do you guys want? Money. Ok cool. We want these aprons because it essentially hard caps the league (they wouldn’t say that part out loud)
I hope some of the reporters have the spine to correct this. The owners are skating on this issue. It was them.
Aprons should have different rules for drafted talent and free agents in a way that can still keep the league competitive while allowing the team to commit to making a contending run. Some teams are just ass feeder farms, but teams hustling their way into the postseason should have the chance to get someone without worrying about the monetary implications so much that they handicap themselves
Apron complaints really just comes off as thinly veiled whining because teams arent dropping max contracts or MLEs like candy anymore. If players really care about winning over everything they could easily do what the Knicks guys did and all take slightly less than the max so that they can keep their team and be better for it.
The supermax has arguably been as damaging as any other rule for roster building given how much of the cap it takes up, you dont hear players bitching that they cant keep their team together because SGA is getting paid 35% of the cap though.
Thanks for the memories but K Love doesn’t fit our new style at all. I am glad he is having a resurgence in Utah tho, I thought he was cooked. & i hope he gets to play for his hometown team next: Portland Trailblazers.
Teams just need to be smarter with their money. Christian Braun’s deal (125/5years) is a perfect example of the team not adjusting to the new market. Especially with Peyton Watson playing better as of late, it’s going to be basically impossible to keep him, Jonas, Cam Johnson and Braun.
The Bulls idiotically gave Pat Williams (90/5), but at least learned from their mistake by not overpaying Josh Giddey (100/4years). Giddey is accurately paid imo; Braun is soon to be overpaid.
