Re: Agreed. I would rather have 50% of a $4B pie than 53% of a $3B pie. The superstar system also works well when you have Bird/Magic or Jordan...
The teams that lose Miami and/or the Lakers visiting are going to be pissed if that is true HCP. The Blazers used both games to sell 10 game...
The difference was bigger in the last CBA and it did little to discourage the superteam.
I do not think the 3% would make a difference in influence. Keeping it low makes for less obligation on teams that keep their players while making...
The luxury tax is where the super teams are discouraged, but not prohibited. Compared to the last CBA, the players are making major concessions.
The union anticipated this and they have ways for the players to get paid something. Would be difficult to get the same pay though.
The owners could also have an ESPN special Lebron style named "The Decision II" where they decide every day if they will accept the players offer....
We had 6 of the 8 of the newly cancelled games in Novemer on the road. Not really sad about not playing those.
Not getting too excited. Could easily see this being cleared up tomorrow and hoping it does. They made too much progress it seems and they can...
Hahn has no credibility. Will wait to hear it from someone more reliable.
Yes, my heart goes out to them considering they are working and earning less than my 62-yr old friend that has a back that looks like a silly straw....
Landry and LA would be absolute hell for a team to deal with in the 4th quarter. Landry's ability to get to the line late in the game is among tops...
I do not think convincing him is going to be a problem. Have you seen enough of him to say he is truly ready? I would love it if he were, but...
Which is why I said at the right price. I am not comfortable with GW playing extended minutes at the 4. With Batum providing relief at the 3 and 2,...
Camby/LA LA/T Law GW/Batum Wesley/Batum Felton/Smith Looks pretty solid to me. That does not include Roy, Oden, or any other project either.
I would not have a problem with teams using it on traded players. Teams that did not sign stupid contracts should not be penalized by the stupid...
Multi-year amnesty would be good because we can see if Brandon truly has nothing left. Amnesty period may also mean a return of Travis Outlaw. At...
I think it is more of a gift if it is allowed to be used on contracts that are not signed yet. NY, Chicago, and Miami already got rid of their...
As a thank you for being an STH, the Blazers just comped me 7 suite level tickets for Disney on Ice. The Players Union has comped me nothing up to...
I am not originally from Portland and this was one of the things I used to do that got the snobbish eye roll from locals. I now embrace getting that...
