I would guess that's probably why extra roster spots weren't added, too. The players are already giving up so much income with the escrow money for this season they'll never get. My completely uneducated guess is that 2-3 extra spots per team, even at the minimum, might have meant they miss out on even more. It's not like adding players creates added revenue, and 50% is 50%, no matter how many ways you split it.
Yeah, absolutely all about the money I think. I know they lost a lot this year and want to make sure the league doesn’t get to a spot it can’t recover.
I wonder if a bubble(s) system was turned down because the players didn’t want to have to do that again, because it actually cost the NBA a lot of money, or both.
