The Salary-Cap and the Luxury tax are the basic rules used at the NBA and on other leagues exactly for that - making the game more competitive.
It is already the case today regarding buying better players - the one who has more money still will have better chance to buy a better player.



but usually in closed systems, in franchising enviroment without promotion /demotion etc. but let continue somewhere else.

I present to you, the new commisioner once again.
For him, "The draft" is not a BB-managing feature, but having an eBay auction where he uses the extra time he has, is the core and only feature that this game should be based on.


did you noticed how much ebay goes on during draft night? There are trades every ten/twenty minutes ;) To get the talent you want, and don't draft. And here the talent is much more split, and you don't know so much about the players.

Not a single explanation why it would not work.

And all of the teams can make that deal, and the player will not go to the one who is manager will be up at 3AM to sign the deal.
And I guess that the Portland Trailblazers new a lot more about Oden than one can know here about the draft players.
Yes... Sure...

Perepete:
And we are back at the exact same debate all over again with the exact same arguments.
Not anywhere near the suggestion. At least, it was your suggestion, so you didn't hijacked somebody else thread.

And here above we can see an example of a message related to the thread content.

Still the fact is, drafted players are counted in the revenue and the attendance.
So, although your POV will not count, as it is a BB desicion, you are supporting the suggestion, and think that it is already implemented.
Great.
