With the increase in revenue, the players are going to have higher salaries. But I have a question for you.
What do you do with the increase in available cap money?
I suggest that the NBA expand the roster from 15 to 18 players. Allow the teams to keep 12 players available for games and 6 in the Dleague on salary. Use the dleague like a minor league system. Instead of having to watch players go to Europe for better pay, make them a high enough salary to stay and work toward making an NBA roster. If they dont make it in dleague then they have the option to go to Europe. Two teams (ie San Antonio and Dallas) could operate a dleague team together with their 6 players each on the roster. Instead of having 10 day contracts, teams could call up players to fill in for injured players. Should a player but ruled out for the season, another player could be added to dleague team. Set a max and min salary for dleague players at top 2nd round max and minimum of 50% of that figure. Have the dleague season end March 15 with 2 rounds of playoffs. Allow the NBA teams to expand rosters on April 1 to allow teams to see the progress of players against NBA level teams.
