A hallmark of NBA contracts is that they're fully guaranteed, but there are layers of complexity that shape how the league operates, and how teams are able to build out their rosters. Whether it be different levels of the infamous max contract, exceptions to exceptions, performance bonuses, and all the complications that the luxury tax brings, there is a world of red tape involved in how players move from team to team, and how they actually get paid. The Ringer's Rob Mahoney breaks it all down in this new episode of Ringer PhD.

@AwesomeThunderCap 2 года назад

He got an expensive contract and the Lakers waived him but do still have to pay him. So it clears up a spot on the roster itself but counts against the cap, if I’m not mistaken.

@Bsfnelz20 2 года назад

What happened with that does he not want to play no more or did they tell him we'll pay you to stay home or can he sign somewhere else

@lepidoptery 2 года назад

@@Bsfnelz20 they waived/bought him out (and then "stretched out" the remaining amount they owed him so it was only $5M for each of the next few years instead of, i assume, a much larger amount for the 1-2 years left on the original contract--i'm pretty sure this is just an accounting maneuver as far as it counting towards the cap in any given year, he still got paid when he was supposed to). he signed with another team after the lakers but retired due to injuries or something.

That was a bad moment for Brandon Marshall 🤦

@andrewshandle 2 года назад

He believed he was right on NBA contracts more firmly than I believe in anything in my life. It was a live, real-time instance of the Backfire Effect where the facts made him cling to his beliefs with with more and more fervor. Given how easy it was for him to verify his position, it really shows how powerful the Backfire Effect can be and explains a _lot_ of what is going on in the world right now.

@cecilboyd1692 2 года назад

it's really not. each team has ~$110M in salary cap. 30 teams in league. so average annual total play payroll is gonna be around $3.3B. none of this is new information.

@hansfromcongo6322 2 года назад

@@henrydingliu yeah I know it is over the length of their whole contract but that stat is still crazy. I know it is not new but when you put all the cap space for each team all together like they have here it is crazy to think that all these players are paid that much money

@mrmacross 2 года назад

@@hansfromcongo6322 Agreed. It goes to show that if you can show any level of competence in the NBA for a few years, you're going to be filthy rich. The Bulls just signed Alex Caruso and his 6.4 PPG to four years and $37 M. I know scoring isn't everything, but the big point is how massively salaries inflated in the past 7 or 8 seasons. Just in 2014, six players earned more than $20 M a season, led by Kobe at $30.5 M, but just this last year 51 players earned more than $20 M, led by Steph Curry at $43M, and 22 players' earning more than Kobe's $30.5 M.

@dylanc9145 2 года назад

Would it be better or worse for the league to get rid of cap hits for guys who teams re-sign after they've drafted them or the player has been on the team for 4+ consecutive years? You'd still have a salary cap, it would have to shrink, but only guys a team has traded for or signed as a FA from another organization would count against the cap.

Where does the tax payment go to that these teams so often pay? Is it reinvested into the league? Used for NBA executive bonuses? Donated to local team charities?
