Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 1083831, member: 652"] Unless your Lebron James or maybe Kevin Durant nobody is worth MAX money. These salary caps in the NBA have really killed franchise building. The owners have suppressed the players so much how this 2011 CBA and its why the NBAPA should find new leadership and opt out after the 2017 season. Make a deal with owners NO MAX contracts in exchange for a franchise tag at a level of the top 5 players in the NBA salaries and each season its used the player gets a 20% increase the following season. Melo is worth a big salary but taking the huge salary kills the Knicks cap space. Banking on the cap jumping drastically in 3 years means your going to be mediocre for the next 3 years and hope for cap space then. Phil Jackson can't just add players without the cap. [/QUOTE]
