OT: What exactly did the lockout solve?

[irishock]

There were lots of criticism towards the league for lack of parity and overpaying the players, and how the lockout would fix things by bringing a hard cap, salary rollbacks, franchise tag, etc.


What exactly has changed from June of 2011 to December 2012? We still have $100 million payroll teams in the Lakers with 4 ing stars on 1 team, James Harden, DeAndre Jordan getting overpaid like and there's maybe only 3 teams that can win it all: Miami, OKC and San Antonio.

Howard left Orlando, Paul left New Orleans, then it'll be guys like Aldridge and Love heading to Boston and LA.

lockout didnt do , when the jew wanted high scoring games

high scoring games = scrubs statpadding = them gettin better contracts in the future = misleading over evaluating real value of the scrub

Gotta put the Clippers, Memphis and both NY teams and maybe Boston, but basketball has always been that way. A lockout can't change that. Most talented teams are the ones that have a chance and everybody else is ed.
