Yeah I truly don't understand this ****. I offered Hedo a lot more in a 5 year contract. Don't get it. Frustrating.

"I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

I agree with Soundwave that the lux tax should be held off until next year maybe use this year as a trial. Itd be nice to know how a rule change works before it goes into effect
Pretty simple. You are allowed to be over the cap by $5mil... if i remember correctly, you pay a point for every million after that. It's to curb people from throwing out max money across the board.
Biggest cap #. I don't blame you . Not taking a shot just joking. Seriously though I think it needs to happen now. I think the point system and this go hand in hand. There's only like 7 offenders currently with the big money guys out. Lots of teams with space to dump salary to as well.
It shouldn't go in until after this season. I want to say that was discussed.
So no bill till 2006? Or a bill at the end of THIS season. I don't think we should be billing people for last year's season either.
Btw, what's next for FA? How's it all going to pan out from here?
So, should we bill at the beginning of the season or the end? Of course teams cap numbers will change during a season.
Are we set with the training costs? For instance, why does it cost more to train post defense than perimeter defense?
As far as when to begin with the tax, obviously it doesn't matter as much to me because I will not be over. I just think penalizing teams this year for things they did within the rules isn't up to par. Then again, this is coming from the same person that thinks its wrong to keep steroid users out of the baseball hall of fame. There was no rule against it, but they really did know it wasn't the right thing to do.
Because I felt perimeter d was broken j to two things: perimeter d and drive d.
I think the penalties need to be paid at the end of the season... so you pertty much have up to the trade deadline to minimize your tax hit. Then pay prior to the last NBA Champ sim. (that way if a championship team has to sign a guy or two for that series due to injury, it can be done then paid)
Immediately after the NBA Finals are over and simmed, don't the FA's become FAs? Or does commish need to initiate the resigning process to generate offers and everyone else becomes FAs? If it's the latter, we can make this a part of the offseason process before Resignings.
Balls volunteered(?) to overlook this; so maybe he could create the thread at that point to say who has to pay a tax.
I'd do it at playoff time. And collection would need to happen at the end of the season. I think it's gotta happen this seasons end. Celtics have the worst figure but only would owe something like 28 points. I think winning a championship w the new points system pretty much pays for that. He just used 100 points to train guys so its not like he was hurting for points. Sorry hornetsfaninky to use you as an example here.
Yeah I was hoping this would get instituted asap as well. The current system is the richer get richest. I think the luxury tax should be a bit more harsh than a point per mil. But that's just my opinion. I don't think 1 point per mil is gonna stop many from going over, because basically those guys going over are getting tons of points so it's not really hurting them too much.
It's 2 points per mill. I dont think you can go over that since i dont think teams generally earn over like 40 a season tops.
This is coming from someone who will be over the threshold this and next year lol.
Can you please also explain the thought process of making 3-pt shooting and jump shot training 10 points more than inside scoring?
So I might lose 16 points?
