Some interesting perspective on how the new NBA TV deals are about to send the salary cap sky rocketing. Seeing as how the salary cap is always a point of conversation with this team I thought this was relevant.
The NBA enacted a salary cap smoothing plan that will basically increase the salary cap by 10% each year starting in 2025-2026 and will probably increase by 10% each year through the end of the decade. I’m not banking on it but hopefully, maybe this means there is more of a chance we inch into the tax this year for more flexibility?
Conceivably we could just pay a fee for one season and then be out of the tax next year by doing nothing at all. Or if we have a really good season just stay in the tax. One can dream, right?

This plus centennial yards is giving me hope for a lil spending this year
My understanding is that Guys on max contracts is a percentage of the cap. If we get Jalen for less than the max on a 5 year it will be a good contract…. I think. But just remember the agents negotiating these contracts know way more about how any of this works than anyone.
