The NBA does not lack for parody, nor does your posting style.
Look it up.

Not according to those links, unless there is some special fake Greek math you're going to tell us about.
LOL. Beat me to it.
1. That number is from 08/09 and is an estimate.
2. That number is an estimate of the total team budget, meaning all club expenditures. Salaries are one component of the team budget.
3. Now stop babbling and add the salary numbers in the 2010/11 column and get back to us.
4. They apparently don't teach math, reading, or basic business in Arkansas.
Greek League Champs since 92-93
PAO-12
Oly-6
AEK-1
Someone should investigate whatever league the Globetrotters are in. Seems fixed to me.
Then account for difference between the budget figure and the total of the salaries
You're nothing if not predictable.
19 years is just like 8 years.The Greek League started in 1927. once again PATHETIC. You know damn well that Greek League is not nearly as dominated by 2 teams as NBA is, so you choose to ignore the first 60 years or so of it.
You are truly a pathetic troll.
Here you go:
NBA from 1991 to 1998
Bulls 6
Rockets 2
Since you can just pick any year you like in your trolling mind.
Either find another league that is considered elite worldwide that in HISTORY was dominated by 2 teams as much as the NBA was, or STFU troll.
PAO has won 31 of 71 Greek League championships.
The Lakers and Celtics have combined to win 33 of 65 NBA les.
You really don't want to add up those salary numbers, do you?
Understandable.
Just thought of another league dominated by two teams.
The Laff-a-Lympics were almost always won by either the Scooby Doobies or the Yogi Yahooeys. Very rarely did the Really Rottens come away with the win.
i say just bite the bullet and implement this hard cap. tired of seeing the big market teams get all the bloated contracts and dominate.
You owned yourself last time you reported someone. Do you really want another forum spanking by Kori?
KBP_Forever, you are like the nugget that just wont flush, even after several attempts at flushing..everytime I see any type of conversation you are in here, its pissing someone off with you arrogant bs, or just being a pest..
You are seriously more annoying than Rapper, before he was banned from starting threads..only thing is, Rapper wasnt TRYING to be a pain in the ass.
Now, with salaries being slashed, endorsement money could become THE deciding factor for free agents who are chasing a buck. Again, the big market teams trump the small.
Small market teams need to build HEBs. Everyone needs Mootopia milk.
The thing is, with a true hard cap, there are only so many FAs who can sign with an LA or NY or CHI, no matter how many want to go there for endorsements. They aren't going to try to subsist on endorsements, because I'm doubting those have an injury guarantee like most team contracts. There will be plenty of players to go around.
I think parody has killed the NFL, yea you see lots of different teams win championships but you never see dynasties anymore like the Dallas Cowboys were, or the 49ers were. That is because the guys that are drafted in the later rounds and turned into great players are moving to new teams too easily. Gone are the days of NFL teams that have 7 or 8 hall of fame level players that finish off their whole careers with that team.
Actually I think this will be very advantageous to big market teams who will just cut the sucky guys off their roster and fill it with a great player who knows that they can double their salary if they go to LA or New York.
If you're a great player and know that the most you can get paid in any market is 8 million dollars where would you rather be, in San Antonio making just that or in LA making that plus an extra 20 million in endorsements?
Yes they are losing money, and why do you think the New Orleans franchise had to be taken over by the league? There were no buyers.
The players will cave in just like the NFL players did, when it comes down to it, the NBA players know they are just as greedy as the owners and want their money and will hang each other out to dry to get it.
BINGO, the owners are not victims in this, they are greedy bas s just like the players and they expect us to pony up for their greed.
No league has ever been dominated the Baseball is dominated by the Yankees.
You win the internet
There is no way the league honors the current contracts if a hard cap CBA goes into effect. Most likely they contracts would be cut by a certain percentage which would increase during the phase in period. As far as the player's association never agreeing to it you have to keep in mind that there are a ton of players making less than $5 million a year. In fact, a quick review of team rosters shows that roughly 1/3 of rosters make under $1million and about 1/3 make between $1 million and $5 million. In addition, there are players that are part of the union that are not currently under contract. All of these players are going to be effected much less than the Kobes, LeBrons and Duncans of the game, but their votes count just as much. They also have much left save up to fall back on, so when they weigh the pros and cons of staying out it will be much different than those few making over $10,000,000 per year.
This is still a go. I find it almost impossible for anything lower then 60 million to be negotiated.
According to NBA executives familiar with the league’s strategies, once the lockout is in place, the owners will push for a hard salary cap of $45 million, the elimination of guaranteed contracts and ask that the players swallow a 33 percent salary cut.
The concessions made in recent weeks, including the “flex cap” of $62 million and a guarantee of $2 billion in annual player payroll, will be off the table.
If this seems certain to guarantee the loss of the entire 2011-12 season, it is because there are owners who think it is necessary for the long-term viability of the league.

This is going to be a long offseason as these two groups seem far apart and neither is budging.
Listing of what both sides want: http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/s...e=labor-110629
When does the NT play start? Also, still waiting for televised broadcasting of the Silver Stars, that starts early July iirc.
LOL, if the owners get a $45 million cap and non-guaranteed contracts the public should get all its ing arena financing money back.
If owners really want to go that far, players should start working an creating a new league. Players generates all the money and thus have all the power.
I love how the owners are freaking out over contracts they created, offered, and signed themselves. What a bunch of whiners.
The NBA needs to be more like the NHL and NFL rather than have a soft-MLB type of system. Also non-stars make way too much money for far too long in this league.
There's no way in that the cap will lower to $45 mill but the NBA desperately needs to revamp its system. And
