※ 引述《pohao522 (永遠向前看)》之銘言： : Slip through the ‘Nets’: Payroll legal, but NBA wanted harder cap : During negotiations to create its current collective bargaining agreement, : the NBA did its best to limit the amount of money its teams would be able and : willing to spend on their rosters by implementing a much more punitive luxury : tax system, one that officially goes into effect this season. : But that more punitive system wasn’t enough to prevent the Nets from : shelling out millions of billionaire owner Mikhail Prokhorov’s personal : fortune this offseason. : Between completing their blockbuster draft night trade with the Celtics, : re-signing Andray Blatche and signing Andrei Kirilenko, Shaun Livingston and : Alan Anderson, the Nets sent their payroll soaring to more than $100 million : for the coming season, which means they’ve also committed to paying a : massive luxury tax bill of roughly $87 million next year. : “I would say it’s no secret that we went into collective bargaining seeking : a hard cap,” NBA deputy commissioner Adam Silver — one of the main : architects of the current CBA and who will replace David Stern as : commissioner when Stern steps down Feb. 1 — told The Post Wednesday after : speaking at the league’s Rookie Transition Program in Florham Park. “So, : for the long-term health of the league, we would rather do more to level the : playing field among our teams, so the teams that have disparate resources are : all competing with roughly the same number of chips so to speak.” : “What I’ll add is that what we’ve seen with the Nets, ultimately there’s : no prohibition if you’re willing to pay a very substantial tax — there’s : no prohibition on signing the players they did, but the new rules also : dramatically limit those players that are available to sign, especially once : you move into the tax. So we’ll see [what happens].” : The transition from the previous luxury tax system, which penalized teams one : dollar for every dollar they went over the tax threshold, to the new one that : includes an escalating pay scale for every $5 million teams go over the : threshold, was supposed to reign in spending and help level the playing field. : Nevertheless, it didn’t prevent teams from being able to load up on : high-salaried players as the Nets did — as long as they were willing to pay : a substantial tax bill after doing so. : The Nets certainly will fall into that category. They are set to pay out more : in luxury taxes alone this season than any team in the NBA is currently set : to pay in salaries. The Knicks have the second-highest committed salaries for : next season, at a little less than $86 million, according to shamsports.com. : While half of the tax will be distributed to all non-tax paying teams — : while the other half is used as a source of funding for the league’s : revenue-sharing program — there have been plenty of examples of championship : contenders having to give up key pieces of their teams to help ease the : burden of the new tax system. : There is no better example than the Thunder, after reaching the Finals, : trading James Harden to Houston before last season to avoid going beyond the : tax threshold. Even the two-time defending champion Heat opted to use the : amnesty clause on Mike Miller, who started the last four Finals games during : their run to the title last season, in order to ease their tax burden. : Still, Silver isn’t ready to say the system isn’t working because the Nets : are willing to go to places where, apparently, few other team are in terms of : their payroll. : I think before, even as someone who was and is a proponent of a harder tax, I : don’t want to declare the sky is falling yet because they are doing what is : permissible under the rules,” Silver said. “There were only certain players : they were able to spend that money on. “Does it give a team a competitive : advantage when they have the ability to spend far more than other teams?” : Silver said. “Absolutely.” ... And it’s something we pointed out to the : union in bargaining, : “There’s a correlation between the ability to spend and success on the : court,” he continued. “It’s far from a perfect correlation, however, so we : ’ll see how it plays out. : “But, so far, they are playing by the rules, and we’ll see whether that : brings them the success they are hoping for.” : 其他29隊：保安保安～可以讓人一直簽球星簽了又簽簽了又簽嗎？ : Mikhail Prokhorov表示：有錢臭了嗎？ ╭ ╮(╯▽╰)╭ ╮ 覺得直譯翻「薪資合法(籃網),但NBA要更硬的上限」會比較好一些推文的不少都沒看內原文結尾聯盟也提到「在目前為止，籃網的動作都合乎規則」就算有新政策，現在的薪資協定是要到2016年才會能變動要說針對的話以籃網在2016薪資狀況，反而是會針對其他球隊 2016 KG PP都先約滿，JJ最後一年的24.9M也跑完了籃網反而沒有幾張大合約 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 124.8.74.215
