Thats up to the league and the players union to work that out. But they allowed it to get to this point, they need to clean up the mess. And simply keeping things the same is clearly not the best idea. Unless the league truly DOES want just big market teams to win (which they do...but still)

I say let the current contracts ride out, and then the team is not allowed to exceed the cap after their contracts run out. In the case of the Lakers, that's after Gasol and Kobe either retire or have to resign.

Sounded like a great plan for any team currently overspending

Yeah but if they can't sign MLE niggas or get niggas for the Vets Min or make trades, those teams are ass after 2-3 years

If you have a hard cap...I dont think youd have an MLE anyways. And what about teams who are just at the cap? They also couldnt add to their teams but would be competing against teams who are far above the cap or even luxury threshold.
