The Official NBA Season Thread: Season Starts Now

Exactly. In a previous CBA the Celtics would just be incentivized to overpay because he’s valuable to them tbh
They were absolutely going to give him a good contract under previous CBA. Zero reason not to. Under new one though you just can’t afford to give your 6th/7th guy that kind of money.

So then, if you’re that kind of role player, you basically have to just pray the money the few under-cap teams have doesn’t dry up before they get to you.
 
One “take” I have is IDK why B Sox B Sox thinks it is ridiculous that folks are questioning the idea of paying Jaylen Brown $59MM annually especially with this new CBA kicking in that will be limiting 🤷‍♂️ If you are Boston you have to at least see what else you could get for him. A deal may not be worth it but you absolutely have to check the temperature of the marketplace.
Because he works for the Celtics

I think the requirement to spend 90% of the salary cap will help with that
