This is the obvious solution. The way it currently happens is a fraught process. Easy to reform for the good of all. Likely to be opposed by the NBA Journalists' Union though.

What is the effect of pushing back the start of free agency? Shorter window for signing contracts?

I'm really looking forward to 5y from now with all the articles stating "DAJ defecting on Dallas made all this possible", after Dallas tanks hard this season and get the #1 pick in the draft and it turns out to be one of those legendary players and it changes the NBA landscape for years (à la Tim Duncan).

with cp3 pissing off jordan is there a chance they want to trade away chris paul to avoid a cancer in the locker room?

Cali has 11% income tax over $1 million. He'd make $78.3 million with LAC and $84 with the Mavs.

He said that he was unhappy being part of the Clippers, then he turns down more (net) money to go somewhere else? That ought to be the ultimate no-brainer.

I hate to start this, but Jordan has always been a head case. They had to bring in his old high school coach for the first season or two, to try and keep him under control. He's dumb as a bag of rocks. He's got big physical attributes, but his career has been a constant display of dumb ery. I think any team would have to provide just the right cradle to rock him.

I'd say the Mavs are better off without him, but after missing out on other prospects, I don't know how you recover from this.

No because only games played in Cali are taxed the 11%. The state taxes are based on where the game is played. So in Cali he will make mor than 78.3 and in Texas he would make less than 84 (ignoring all federal taxes.)

This devastates the Mavs, There's a decent chance they miss the PS now. May set there franchise back four or five years.

Well, Spurs have to contend with a better Clippers team this year. Paul Pierce and Lance Stephenson are the two notable additions. The lost Matt Barnes. Paul Pierce may be problematic for the Spurs with nobody to cover him at SF (Leonard would be covering someone else).

Maybe a slow and lengthy guy like Kyle Anderson would work.
