NBA’s Silver wants more balance

“I’ve read several stories suggesting that that’s something the league wants, this notion of two superteams, that it’s a huge television attraction…”

I don’t see Durant willing to give up his role he had in OKC with his new team because that was what made him so good.

I will say that whoever is the prohibited favorite, try telling that to the other 430 players who aren’t on those two teams.

Silver said there have been talks with the players’ union about changing some of the elements in the free-agent system, and that it will be a part of the upcoming collective bargaining negotiations. Lebron James made it acceptable for players to go to other teams to join multiple stars to win rings.

“But there’s no question when you aggregate the great players [on those two teams] they have a better chance of winning than many other teams …” He chose to join the team who just eliminated him after being up 3-1; However the reality was different, the Warriors had to clear cap space for this move to happen.

The forward met with a handful of teams before ultimately making his decision to join the Warriors, a team he was unable to surpass in the playoffs for the last couple years.

In the NBA? Um, no.

Now a few days have passed since this shocking news, the sportsworld is starting to absorb it and we can’t wait for the 2016-2017 National Basketball Association season to start.

“It was insane seeing him text my phone, that’s a guy you’d never expect to even be in the same room with”, said McCaw, who is in town with the Warriors for the NBA Summer League. He is clearly gunning for another title. His season was wonderful I would say one of the best seasons by a player in NBA History if he can do what he did past year but better the next season and win a championship.

San Antonio is a distant third on all futures betting lines, and as an example of just how large the cliff is, Bovada has the Celtics tied with the Clippers for fourth-best chance to take the championship.

We get it: Many believe the league is less competetive after making the Thunder a lesser team while strengthen the best team in the West. But is this really the case?

But he added that he hopes to adjust the collective bargaining agreement to avoid such a situation in the future.

There are many ways to take the phrase “we can make it better”. Rose became more known for his injuries rather than his play, as he hadn’t played in more than 66 games since the 2010-11 season. This change would lead to the Warriors stars being paid more, making it more hard to fit Durant under the cap as well; it also creates the possibility of a team with more cap space than anyone to offer Durant way, way more than Golden State could have offered-don’t think for a second teams wouldn’t have offered him $50 million or more.
