The nba draft is so crazy.
Like imagine if the warriors got Evan Mobley instead of Wiseman. Them dudes would be the favorites for the next 5 titles lol.

I heard ESPN gave the NBA a lot of money to avoid conflicting with their soccer/UFC ratings

Reminding me the constant disrespect when all the talk is Poole, Steph, Klank and BGA. Seen the segment with SAS, JJ and CJ and not one mention of Wiggs. More important than Poole on the real. You can win without Poole going off, be harder to win without Wiggs defense, rebounding and intangibles.

Is it though? Everyone grieves differently and society is based on hero worship. I really have no issue with it.

Wiseman wore his finest suit when he went to have dinner with the Warriors brass.

So ive never been really too too familiar with salary cap rules and luxury taxes and all that, I know the basics but anyone care to share in a quick and simple way how it all works again?

GS will have some big decisions to make. Wiggins, Poole and Looney have earned big pay days.
Klay would be a good fit in Detroit.

Was listening to a pod about Wiseman, and his time in Memphis. It was really tough on him on a personal level. Outside of the NCAA investigations and all that…dude was apparently hella unhappy there. And would just stay in his room and was really hard on himself.
He got a rough road ahead. Wish the best for him. This team may not work for him tho.

Salary cap prevents large-market teams from just paying unlimited money to obtain the best talent whenever
If you don't have cap space, you basically only get to sign free agents to minimum contracts.
There are exceptions though. Like going over the cap to re-sign your own players if you have their bird rights.
This is where luxury tax comes in. Deeper you are in the luxury, more it's gonna cost you to keep top-level talent
Luxury is the real salary cap since most teams have no problem going over the actual salary cap
This is how well I understand it from managing teams on 2K
It's definitely more complicated in actuality but you did ask for quick and simple

IIRC, he came to Memphis for his last year in HS because he was playing soft in Nashville. Needed to toughen him up.

So we're going to sit here and act like trading KD away for DLo which eventually turned into Wiggins didn't happen?

Charlotte needs some veterans on that team expeditiously.
Wiggins hasn't been impactful? That's what we're about to do right now? Y'all have no shame.
