Problem is probably not the high salaries.

Wrong.The BB fails in creating a balanced salary system for the players,so a top level center is unaffordable
But every change you want to make,it will distort drammatically the market,so there isn't any possibilities to act on salaries players.we have only to wait that gradually the incomes of the I and of all the lower divisions will increase till a level when some top team could find convenient to have these players.But you had to wait a lot of seasons

In a normal economy, as long as something is in demand, the price for that something can be maintained.

The high salary players are shuffled around, but apart from needing to move to a new home now and then (how much trouble will that give them with their spouse/girlfriend???) they can maintain their lifestyle. They are in demand, so they are there and a valid part of our BB-Economy.

What would be troublesome is if these players aren't being hired anymore. The logical reaction to that would be for the player to lower his (her?) salary to become more in demand again.

Maybe this is logical: When a player hasn't been playing for a while, their skills decrease, thus their salary decreases as well. And at some point they are again affordable. Maybe they can even be trained again to have a better skillset then before.

How about this. Maybe could be done these demands for wage more elasticly. So once is that player in lower league for a while, he get used to a cheaper life. But once he gets first league, his demands will increase by the time.

So if he is transferlisted afterwards into lower league, will take some time before he gets into lower wage level.

This create two things. Players which will be transfer listed by high-league teams, will be kind of cheaper and these which goes out of bottom league, will have kind of bigger price, because of theirs salary.

That would possibly create enviroment, where would be biggest stars affordable for everyone. Especially for a first-league teams, because once are these wages setted by the way that lowleague team can hardly afford 1 player like that, whiile temporary this wage would be kindly acceptable by 1st league team, it could work.

Imagine something like this. There is a first league team which have maximum space for such a player 250k. There is a 3rd league team which have space like that 100k.
There will be a star which in 3rd league earns his maximum - that is 100k. If such player buy 1st league, his demands would increase into 250k for a 3-4 seasons before he would go into 250k and aditional 1-2 seasons before he would get his maximum 350k (for example).

i don't like it, and why you would buy player out of high leagues anymore when they get always salary increasing. As a top team you have to trade consistently to hold the wages down, for the suppose of a low league team maybe could trade with those players with raised salary.

Well I think that would cover faster decrease if he is traded into lower league. There is a possibility, that equilibrium for this could be found.

That idea counts pretty much with very tight budget of low-league teams. So you can have a lot of money, but once are your weekly-economical numbers in red collor, because of more these players, you are simply losing money.

So that means low-league team cannot be better than high-league team no matter what. Unless he wants to sacrifice something from the weekly budget. And that could be the point for the cup.

i am acting close to the border, since a while and i have one of the cheapest rsoster of my league ;) So the solution is to sell player all the time, to get the same quality to a cheap salary.

depends of the size of this influence ;)

It's just ridicoulous that players with the same skills would have different salaries.Stop.

Of course, that is what you mean. Well this behaviour isnt something which could be the benefit for a kind game. Normally is that regulated by the will of a player. You have some contract which you have to comply. But I dont know about that in this game. Maybe if there would be possible to create an optional contract for a 3 seasons or like that if you want this bonus.

I dont know, seems really complicated now.

so the will of the player is to play, for BSG Hintertupfingen instead of the LA Lakers? because when he had offers from both clubs, he would go for a cheaper offer to the low league club8if you calculate about a normal 1-2 year contract).

That would be too realistic behaviour. In that case should not be possible to hold a great player for a long time in lower league or he would stagnate in his skills, because of lacking the competition or quit from singing another contract and so on.

Im trying to think about this implementation only in the salary way, im sure it would be really different if it would be as it should be. But Im not sure if anybody would like to play like that.

Say this to Matt Barnes(the real NBA player),I'm just curios to see his answer
