As it is quite obvious that teams make too much money, I suggest that from now on all teams pay full salaries during the offseason.

That'll really help people catch up to the successful teams, who have income throughout the playoffs, whereas the unsuccessful will lose money.

I agree completely. Help the rich. Punish the weak. This is a capitalist game after all. No more help for the weak (and the new teams. After all they don't matter, they haven't been here very long.)

If you want new teams to catch up, there are other ways to help them.

I don't like this idea.

I don't agree with this at all.

If I get 5th place and don't have a game for that week, than I shouldn't have to pay full salary when everyone else in the league gets one more game and one more training opportunity than me. If they gave 5th place teams an extra game during the first game of the playoffs then I'd be completely fine with that. Like someone said before, don't punish the weak.

I agree on the extra game. But you could still train super important skills like FT shooting or Stamina.

I don't want to pay a full weekly salary when I'm only able to play 2 games and others are able to play 3 games. That's the more important issue and not fair to those who do only play 2 games this week.

Training skills is a secondary issue that comes from this argument. Yes you can train FT or ST but I'd rather have the option to train something else if others also have that option.

There is a justifiable reason for the salary discount and it makes sense. This should not be changed.
