There is one thing that will impact all of it and so far we have no clue how things will play out. The new CBA. It looks like the majority of owners is pushing really hard for stricter cap regulations. Maybe even a hardcap. At least a reworked luxury tax system.
I think a lot of teams are waiting for clarity before they make decisions about contract extensions or trades that would add a lot of salary.
The hard cap is already off the table. And I think the owners are resigned to working in the dark, since they have just extended the opt-out deadline another 7 weeks, while also giving permission to the negotiating team to extend it again as needed, to as long as June 30.
