In other economic news, the worldwide downturn has reminded both players and owners that BuzzerBeater salaries cannot continue to rise forever. The best players in the game might be getting better, but the best teams aren't taking in any more money, and so player salaries will begin levelling out. Player skills will continue to develop normally, but each offseason the players union will scale salaries to match the total revenue available for them to distribute. Those who have been using salary as a proxy for overall skill should be warned that this relationship will be changing.


This was from the news published 8th September 2009. I am wondering if anyone has any idea on the following:

1. How will the player salary be revised? Is it dependant on whether or not you had revenue during the offseason or is it dependant on the average income for the whole season?

2. Is there a possibility the player's salary will increase with this change or is it only to revise to a lower salary?

3. Will the salary revision only be applicable during the offseason or is it permanent?

4. Is the salary revision only done on the first week of offseason or will be be continuously reviewed every week during economic update?

4. afaik only at the beginning

And for the rest, i will say it depends on gloabl econic and not the microsystem of a team, and the effect should be very small in the beginning but they should go down.
