I don't mind the 3 year contracts, but I don't want to see them put in a hard cap.

I don't see how this is going to affect the current crop of superstars. By the time the new CBA is done with, they would've already signed their new contracts and extensions. It's the Kevin Durants, OJ Mayos, and Chris Pauls etc (essentially the next crop of stars) that are going to be affected by this .. All you have to do is think back to this CBA and Chris Webber, Kevin Garnett, and Juwan Howard's contracts that were signed before it went into effect

On some real stuff I think Houston should package Trevor Ariza with McGrady or just trade Ariza for something of value and let McGrady play till his contract vanishes.
All I have to go on are box scores, but this dude has percentages like he shoots blindfolded.

Hmm .. that makes no sense at all .. You had guys with complete albatross of a contract last CBA and they slid by .. Well I guess all we could do is wait and see since it's all speculative right now .. Also if that holds out to be true it makes this offseason all that more interesting

It all goes back to the fact that the majority of NBA teams are losing tons of money right now. I think the NBAPA would have a much easier fight if the NBA was raking in $ like the NFL is, but that's just not the case right now.

Yeah I know and understand all of that but, all I could think of right now is Shaq getting his extension in right before the CBA being up, Juwann's 10 year 200 mil contract and KG making 25 mill a year but mainly Juwann's since there was an outcry to getting his contract voided .. My only problem with all of this is what happens when things turn around .. For example they want to lower the player's profit sharing percentage and drastically decrease their contract [hmm come to think of don't by decreasing their profit sharing percentage doesn't that automatically decrease the size of their contract] .. so what happens when profit margins increase do they give back some of what they've taken or just keep it all like what the NFL does

One would assume that once it turns back around and the margins start increasing the players would bring the issue back to the table when the next CBA expires in 2017.
I didn't read about the profit sharing being decreased though, it does seem redundant to lower salaries AND lower profit sharing. If anything I would have thought they would keep profit sharing the same so when the league does pick back up the players see some of the money prior to the CBA negotiations starting back up in 2017.

Yeah I read about the profit sharing on slam, but didn't see anything about how it's connected to the lowering of the contracts of the leagues highest paid players ... Basically it said the owner want to decrease the players profit sharing percentage and/should cut the salary of its highest paid player by about 35%

Players vs Owners: Prepare for War
by Marcel Mutoni / @marcel_mutoni
For months now, it’s been no secret that NBA team owners — men stinging from the loss of millions in revenue in the wake of the global economic crisis — were coming for the jugular in the upcoming labor negotiations with the players. A picture of exactly what it is that they want has begun to paint itself.
Let’s just say that things aren’t looking very promising for Billy Hunter and the people he represents. CBS Sports broke the story of the owners’ initial salvo into the battle:
The proposal, sent to the union earlier this week, seeks a reduction in the players’ share of basketball-related income from 57 percent to well below 50 percent, according to a person familiar with the document. Owners also are seeking some elements of a hard cap — a departure from the current luxury-tax system — and a reduction in the length and amount of max contracts.
Owners and players will meet in Dallas during All-Star weekend for their first face-to-face bargaining session as they try to reach an agreement before the current deal expires in 2011. The talks coincide with the NFL’s labor negotiation, in which owners have proposed an 18 percent pay cut for players.
Everyone seems to be in agreement that the players are basically screwed here; even with the growing possibility of a lockout in the 2011-12 season, the Union will have little choice but to agree to the owners’ demands.
For now, however, it’s time for some tough talk from the players. Courtesy of the Orlando Sentinel, here’s Adonal Foyle (of all people):

I think the Spurs or Jazz need to make a move for Ray Allen.
