No matter how rich the owner is and how well you are doing, the owners just aren't going to sustain 300 million per year on a consistent basis. Its just not going to happen.

The Warriors are among the smartest franchises out there, so I'm sure they will figure it out...but that nucleus is going to break up at some point.

for a guaranteed finals appearance, possible four peat, and to be one of the only 2 teams in teh NBA that matters, yeah they will.

they can jack up prices to whatever the frick they want and still have waiting lists, the luxury tax is irrelevant

this is unprecedented

He got dazed. Borderline concussion there a lotta grey area there. James didn't go through an official concussion test bc he wanted to play. Told the team he was fine. James is the franchise player he gonna play if he wants to.

which totally is above board and not a shitty thing for the rockets to have done

That's what he gets for trying to frick around and make a game winner vs. SA.

Timmy's has blocked him, Kawhi has blocked him, and Manu whipped out his cane and bopped him upside the head.

Wouldn't it make more sense to let Klay and Draymond walk (or trade them) and make other moves?

if the rockets were interested in following NBA concussion protocol and were just generally decent people, they wouldnt have let james play if the suspected he was dealing with a concussion.

It's the same canned explanation from earlier. It was BS then and of course BS now.

what will their luxury tax look like now if they try to max up curry and KD on one year deals? they could potentially try to sign both, and then dump klay or draymond this summer when more teams have more flexibility. but i think if you want to max up curry and KD, you will still run into problems by trying to bring a third player like a PG which you will need if you let klay and draymond go

no, you follow actual league rules and you dont endanger the well being of your athlete. absolute total piece of shite thing to do by the rockets if james actually had a concussion like you keep saying
