If teams at the top are profitable how will lower teams catch up?

Some teams want to be able to train 6 players, have 5 World class starters, make a profit, build a gold mine, have a beautiful wife, AND an even better looking mistress.

You guys are missing the point. The problem is that someone can spend a lot of millions on staff, gym and training court, build a world class player with a 250k and finally when he sells him, player has 0 value. And this is because teams cannot afford all available players like him, there is no demand for the best players in BB. This is just rediculuse

I'm not missing the point at all, thanks. I'm dismissing it. You pay salaries to players for what they give while they're with you. You're not guaranteed a pay day at the end off it.

The market is what it is.

So you say, it is ok for you if Salah has half value of Jota because his salary. Lets agree to disagree

Oooorrr maybe there's just too much offer !


What are you suggesting? Stop training world class players, just train average players?

I am not a big fan of Westbrook, I think he is overestimated like some BB players with 200k+ salary but less than 130 tsp. Who's more valuable in a trade? Greak Freak or Murray? That should be your question

Two very different players, different positions, different play styles. You cannot compare apples and oranges.

But let's do it anyway: Of course everyone would want Antetokounmpo. But not all teams can afford to pay his salary, so they go for players like Dejounte Murray.
Now, should everyone be able to get Antetokounmpo? Well, in fact, they already are! Every team in the NBA could get him, they would just have to give up certain things in order to make it work.

And that's my point. It is not impossible to get a 200k player as a Div. II team. You're just playing a very dangerous game and you have to find a way to make it work. Most teams don't want to buy a 200k player (Antetokounmpo), so they go for lower salary players which results in higher prices for those "Dejounte Murray's".

Another real life example: Everyone thought it's impossible for a team like the Warriors to get a player like Durant...
