Description

Today's podcast breaks down the NBA's new salary cap system, which was the brainchild of NBA Commissioner Adam Silver. I explain exactly what Silver changed in the NBA’s most recent Collective Bargaining Agreement, how the new salary cap system influences roster construction, what teams will be forced to do instead, and how the system could potentially impact the NBA’s popularity. Enjoy!
