Dang look at Blake Griffin shooting 3's and long 2's:



Remember when people said he could only dunk?


you mean after 5 years he finally got a jumper? impressive.

I'm seriously impressed by his progression, some players don't improve much. He's assisting more, is better in the post and has improved his jump shot and free throws every season.

I have to thank you. I would never have even noticed all these racists in Texas if you people on the internet didn't tell me about them. Thanks so much for opening my eyes.

Okay, Skip.

Too bad about Durant. Intrigued to see what Westbrook's usage rate is without KD.

It's gonna be pretty ugly, though at least it forces Brooks to play Adams (I hope)

Well Adams has been doing pretty decent in the preseason, need to build up that confidence.

Welp, Westbrook's value in free agency this summer is going to be highly dependent on how he can carry the team this summer.

Umm...the guy is stupid because eliminating guaranteed contracts also does nothing to affect the owners' bottom lines because the revenue split between players and ownership is unaffected. Just like in the max contract debate it is just redistributing the same amount of money amongst players. In fact, even the salary cap of each team is meaningless with regards to the owners vs. players.

The only things that matter in the actual negotiation (and the owners win them because they know this) is the revenue split, and what types of income get counted as part of said split. All the things like salary cap, max contracts, salary floors, revenue sharing, etc are all just debates either between different classes of owners or between different classes of players.

TLDR: Article is wrong about the basics, and is just an idiot saying things that would make redditors get angry.

you mean, a max contract or a max contract or.... a max contract?

btw a good point i read elsewhere, the NBAPA probably would not be in favour of getting rid of the max contract. other than the lebrons and the durants, very few players would benefit from the removal of the max contract. and it would actually mean less money for the majority of their players.

Without guarantees you can just cut players at any point once they stop producing at a certain level. You can turn a 20/4 into a 3/1 and save money that way. Remember owners don't have to spend all of the money by the cap That part isn't solely about the money but about job security.
