In 2016 the NBA had a new TV rights deal kick in and suddenly the cap went from $63 million in 2014 to $94 million in 2016. Essentially a 50% increase in 2 seasons (and a 40% increase in a single season). Did teams piss away a bunch of money in 2015 knowing the cap would explode in '16? Nope - they sat on it because they knew that revenues leaguewide were about to explode and they didn't want to have to go into a 2016 FA market with $2 million and a pack of chewing gum when everyone else was holding $25 million in runaround money. Now SOME teams did try to leapfrog the market by being aggressive in 2015 knowing that they really didn't want to get in the middle of a bidding war in '16 with everyone holding full coffers. But those were smaller market teams like the Spurs and Cavs. And really, the small/large market distinction just doesn't apply in the NFL. History tells us that many teams will actually try to keep powder dry AHEAD of a major cap explosion rather than spend up to it. And that's not collusion - it's simply savvy cap management. Now that all went up in a puff of smoke in '16 when all those teams spent money like it was water. Suddenly Timofey Mozgov is getting $20 million/season. Luol Deng got something like $65 million to play 80 more career games. Teams will be stupid again soon enough, but what you're seeing right now is them PREPARING to be stupid later.

Week 1 is a long way from now. If this WR core doesn't change from now until then, I'll be more nervous. |

3/33, 4/44. If they offer OBJ a 2/22 it puts him in with the other top FA WRs. Nothing to be ashamed about there. Maybe thats where it lands. Im hoping its like 2/20 with an easy out after one if it doesnt work but a second year of control if he blows up. If Veach gets him for any less, thats a huge bonus! |

Chandler Parsons got $95 million and played 100 shitty games over 4 years for a total of 1.2 win shares. That had to be the worst. I think the Lakers w/ Deng and Mozgov own 2 and 3. $130 some odd million for 2 guys who played like 120 games combined. Mozgov was so bad the Lakers had to attach Russell to him just to get him off the books. Those were the clear top 3 in terms of raw awfulness, IMO. The rest were either shorter term, lower $$ or at least the team got SOME value out of the guys in question. But yeah, the summer of 2016 has gone down in sports lore as teams just tripping over themselves **** up worse than their competitors.
