You have some hope at building thru the draft in the NFL. A bad QB contract isn’t going to stop you from
Building a young defense.
And neither does the NBA max contract so I don’t see what your point is. If you max out a player you still have 75 percent of your cap to use to fill out a much smaller roster
A bad NFL contract at the QB position could cost you 20 plus percent of the cap and 51 other positions to fill

And who the frick wants to be the wizards to the rockets?
There’s always a team who hasn’t had a marketable star in a few years and wants to sell some jerseys and make the playoffs. Always.
If you don’t want to be that team then trade the asset and tank. “Death sentence” over.

In terms of on the court, they both will have zero shot at title and will be drafting in a bad spot. The rockets are entering a black hole for the franchise that it will take a miracle harden trade to get out of.
What max contract caused this?
They are entering into a black hole because James Harden doesn’t want to be there. Not because they gave anyone the max.

You know what’s easier than moving bad contracts, cutting players. You can get off bad contracts without having to giving draft picks and most deals are only 3/4 years max.
Cutting players usually has a lasting impact on your cap books. Especially when you’re talking these huge contracts like Wentz. That contract is immovable because even if they found a suitor to take it on, he would still have a 60 million dollar cap hit on their cap space
The clippers can get out of this Paul George contract tomorrow or when he’s 36 if they wanted

Yes and no.
There would be far more teams interested if he wasn’t on a max/years left.
Just the salary match in the trade is hard enough.
For example, on his new list is the Bucks. They would be hard pressed to be able to trade enough to get him unless they dumped Middleton. Which kinda defeats the whole purpose.
It’s the same issue that came up for them w CP3, not withstanding what Yannis wanted.

Max contract didn’t cause it but an unhappy superstar is feature of the nba.
You max a guy, wait until he is hurt or unhappy, then trade him for hope and peanuts.

Which to contend, you need to find another max guy. Then you have 50% gone.
