AROUND the NBA: Pat Bev Suspended 4 Games Next Season| PHX Fires Vogel, Hires Bud
(10-15-2022, 04:39 PM)cow Wrote: It seems like a more simple solution would just to be more aggressive with every dollar spent over the cap and far more aggressive for the repeater tax.  The problem I see with with your idea is calculating ownership groups and having to readjust the scale all the time.  Mark Cuban was probably one of the wealthier owners in the league back in the day but someone like Ballmer dwarfs him currently.

Everyone dwarfs in front of Balmer. However Cuban is more in the middle than at the bottom in terms of net worth of NBA owners.  However in terms of taking risks he is now most probably at the bottom. Sure he will pay for a Luka or a Porzingis ( most teams would have ) but in general there is too much paralysis by analysis than taking bold decisions that a younger Cuban might have.  

The fan base engaging in discussions on how to make the cap more equitable is making excuses and ignoring the fact that Cuban is still a very wealthy and relevant owner who just has gone into a shell post that championship or maybe post the Parsons fiasco.   Let’s not forget again how the Warriors got Wiggins. They took a chance on DAngelo knowing he didn’t fit but being smart enough to know that they were getting an asset they could flip. The Mavs don’t do those types of things and even if they did get someone like DAmgelo, they would have been fleeced in a trade when trying to flip him with the fan base making the same excuse that no one would have given up anything for a player like that.
