      Yeah, though with some exceptions maybe. As in a team that tanks 4 or 5 seasons to get alot of lottery capital maybe be restricted.
      Though another issue is this would alter the value of draft picks after so many have been traded. Imagine you traded your picks under this system of rules but before those picks conveyed they change it so the picks are now worth significantly more. They maybe need to something like that worked out to come into play in 5+ years time or something so reset the draft picks and values.

      Honest question here... Doesn't that mean that the teams will negotiate lower salaries from now on? Max deals should be harder now that spent really matters. It doesn't matter if a star threatens to leave, who will pay them as much as they want without butchering their current roster? The way I see it, and I may be completely wrong, the teams will not give the players top money so easily anymore....

    • @jake8748
      @jake8748 3 дні тому +4

      A little bit, but he already made a video showing the 100 most watched events and it was mostly nfl, mlb, college games, etc. Despite the fact that basketball is bigger globally. I think the main reason is cause there's no defense played until the last 8 minutes, that's when a lot of people tune in. The NBA has basically punished the defense by removing hand checking and more importantly adding the gather step and allowing carries to make the offense look better. It's boring.

      Bro they play defense, the thing is it’s far harder to play defense in this era than any other because of the shooting abilities. They need to cover far more space which takes much more energy. Plus the tick tack fouls which heavily favours the offense. 80’s 90’s 00’s half the team could camp in the paint and foul the hell out of anyone coming down the there.

Were gonna see role players getting more championships because they’re changing teams more frequently. That’s what the new CBA is going to do in the next decade.

Also lasty its boring seeing back to backs i like seeing the underdogs or the ones not suspected to win actually win a chip i loved that Denver got their first chip not to long ago and i'm not a Denver fan but liked how it was a new team and not the same 4 teams over and over again its bland boring and stupid

    I dont think that the quality of the NBA product has a direct effect on ratings. As a college student i enjoy watching basketball game and media surrounding it, but mostly through youtube or restreams. The NBA product is the most inaccessible its been since the 70s most likely. Basketball is a fast growing sport among people, something coveted by the other major sports, but young people dont have expensive cable plans or league pass. While i dont know for sure, i would hazard a guess that a graph of nba finals ratings would mirror a graph of household cable adoption. Rising in the 80s/90s, hitting a plateau in the 2000/2010s and shrinking with the rise of streaming.

People like to see dunks and threes, that doesn't mean people want to see EASY + wide open dunks and threes. Creating more parity is about the only good thing the NBA is doing right now, because 2017 and 2018 were wasted years in the NBA thanks to KD taking the chump route

    People don't want parity of champions, people want parity of the chase. It's like in professional wrestling, a great heel drives interest even though everyone "hates" the heel. The chase is the thrill and the championship is the apex. A dynasty with multiple challengers falling and then some new team takes them down a few years down the line is good for national interest.

    • @Zenlollipop
      @Zenlollipop 3 дні тому +4

      The NBA salary cap is a soft cap; when your payroll is above the salary cap, you lose the ability to freely sign free agents and trade players. Above the salary cap, you must match salaries in trades to within 25% generally (there are multiple rules to cover small contracts where this would be impractical, eg. within 200%+$250K for salaries below $7.5M), or rely on certain trade exceptions that can be used once every set period of time. You can also only sign minimum contracts in free agency, or much more commonly use one of the exceptions to this handicap to sign multiple players (biannual exception, mid-level exception) within the room allocated by those exceptions.
      Above the luxury tax line, your mid-level exception drops to the taxpayer level, salary matching in trades is stricter (I don't remember the numbers exactly), and teams now also have to start paying extra for every dollar they spend above the line. Part of this money will then be redistributed as an additional income to other teams below the tax line, and some of it will be used to guarantee portions of veteran minimum contracts and maybe other initiatives related to player welfare.
      (These are all just examples to demonstrate principle, I just don't want to go looking up numbers):
      The luxury tax amount increases in slabs, so the base tax might be 150% of dollars over the line, and above $10M the tax might be 250% and so on. If the luxury tax line is $165M and the Timberwolves spend $175M, they will actually end up paying $190M because of an additional 150% tax on the $10M extra. If the Warriors spend $190M, they pay $190 + $15 + $25 + $22.5M = $252.5M.
      With the new CBA, the luxury tax space also includes these apron rules with even stricter handicaps/penalties for being above these apron levels (which are shown in the video).

      It would be simpler, but at this point I'm just not sure I could calculate or even guess the impact it would have. The league overall might just like having a soft cap because it gives a slightly exaggerated impression that there is an advantage to having a mathematically skilled front office for your franchise, and a GM who can use the exceptions to find creative solutions to roster issues. But essentially you could boil it down to clicking buttons in a spreadsheet without making the "broken rules" cells light up red, so the playing field is probably even on that front because every team can hire at least 1 guy who can do that.

    He keeps stating that the Mavericks are second apron, but they aren't. Spotrac has trouble updating this time of year. Once the website updates, they will be $2.5-4.5M below the first apron with one (possibly two if they waive Lawson) roster spots to fill. The current total on the Mavericks page is still including the salary with Josh Green even though he was removed from the roster higher on the page.,

    I dont even need to see the video. People have been wishing on the Warriors downfall for a long time. Sad part is the casuals think its a chuck 3 and clock out type of team. There's so much more going on. Curry has proven so much more than what was asked of him. His offense is unlike anything we have ever seen. Dray is a donkey dumbfuck but his iq and defense, coupled with his ability to be a swiss army knife is amazing. The warriors have played some of the best systematic, fundamental, beautiful basketball I have ever seen. Go watch 2022 playoffs if you disagree. Curry is a 1 of a kind, he is in the convo with the greats, by virtue of being unique, holding records that people cant even scratch, and rewriting how you play basketball. Also, fun fact, that record setting season where wars got 73 wins, Dray got the most minutes and games started. We can hold him accountable for his on court antics, but at least he keeps it on the court, we act like we know but we don't. He has an amazing relationship with the majority of players he has played against.
    I hated on this team for a long time. I was from the bay and I honestly wished on their downfall. I didn't realize I was witnessing a revolution. I started really trying to understand basketball and when I did that I appreciated Lebron, the Warriors, and KD so much more. I think as couch sitters we get way too comfortable judging stars when in reality they are just like us, and they are putting in work that few of us even understand.
    It's crazy to think as a fan you hold it against a nba player to average 31 ppg 50-40-90 in the greatest stage in nba history and hate on them. KD deserves some flowers. I dont give a fuck if he joined a 73 wins team. They drafted their star players. What team did that? Who has pulled those stats in a finals series? KD is a monster, we should show him some love, and Steph's gravity is at an all time record when it comes to basketball.
    Stop hating on Lebron Steph and KD. Those guys are monsters, mentality wise, talent wise, and personality wise. None of ya'll could handle the scrutiny of a million people juding your every move. These dudes owned the league up till recently. Throw them some flowers and stop being haters, NBA fans foster a hateful ass culture. Show some fuckin love.

    I understand the NBA doesn't make a penny off pirated streams of games, but if they moved to count viewers via the pirate feeds instead of aggressively shut them down, I guarantee they'd see a big boost in viewership of all NBA games, pre-season, summer league, regular season and of course playoffs. The amount of people I know and heard using pirate streaming sites this year was a record for sure, especially for the finals. In fact, I'd argue that is where most of their viewership is going and has gone to - pirated feeds instead of paying money to watch. And when it aligns with people getting sick and tired of dynasties and the same damn superstars and teams getting all the attention and talk, it lowers people's willingness to pay for the lower quality product.
