A new super-max contract allows players with eight or nine years experience to earn more money than they would’ve otherwise. The regular max increased. The over-36 rule became the over-38 rule, which applies to everyone, but stars are far more likely to get offered long-term deals that deep into their career. The National Basketball Players Association president: Chris Paul. Two members of the executive board at that time: LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony. Paul and LeBron were too experienced to benefit from the super max. But they signed larger max deals last summer than they could’ve under the previous system – Paul with the Rockets, LeBron with the Lakers. With Paul getting traded to the Thunder for Russell Westbrook, players don’t exactly sound enamored with their union president. Ethan Sherwood Strauss of The Athletic: The reign of CP3 is not popular with the NBA’s lower classes Some players around the league laughed when union president Chris Paul and his massive contract got dealt to the rebuilding Thunder for Russell Westbrook. Why? Because Paul’s regime is not viewed as one devoted to serving the NBA’s middle and lower classes. “They advocate for the interests of max players and super-max players,” one veteran player said of Paul and company. “Basically, the CBA has helped the whole banana boat crew from back in the day. It’s taken from the midlevel. I think middle-tier players aren’t getting that mid level money anymore. “I think just that huge super max has had cost. Teams are putting all their eggs in one basket to keep that super-max guy. It’s dried up the salary cap. I don’t see it as sustainable long term.” Players collectively receive a certain percentage of revenue. Two major questions in CBA negotiations: What percentage of revenue should that be? How should players divide that share? This griping is about the second question. If no there were no individual max salary, superstars would get paid even more. They’re so important – both on the court and as marketing forces. A single player can swing a franchise far more in basketball than any other major team sport. The CBA already restricts stars’ earnings, leaving more money for middle-class players. Legitimate questions exist about whether stars should face even stiffer restrictions. There are far more middle-class players, after all. In a one-person, one-vote union, the middle-class majority holds more power. They could use it to out-vote Paul and other stars on anything. They could even oust Paul. But don’t get it twisted: Stars are already sacrificing so middle-class players can earn more. 大意是说新版CBA让8~9年以上的球星发大财 当时工会主席是CP3 两位执行委员是皇帝跟瓜哥 而像皇帝跟CP3都发大财了 这导致CP3受到不少球员的反弹 尤其是中下阶层的球员们 因为认为他优先考虑球星的福利 甚至他被交易时不少人是开心的 未署名球员认为(应该不是JR) 他们(CP3与好友)主张顶薪与超级顶薪球员们的利益 认为CBA是在帮助香蕉船兄弟们发大财 却是取自中产阶级的钱 他认为中产层级的球员不再获得符合中阶球员的钱 他并表示球队现在把鸡蛋放在同一个篮子里以签下超级顶薪 薪资上限被用光 而他不认为这会是长期可持续的情况 谈到CBA两大重点:球员应该占联盟多少比例的收入/然後这些收入怎麽分给球员们 不过这则报导後面也有平衡报导 说到篮球巨星比起其他团队运动本就更重要更有特权 如果没有限制他们甚至可以拿到更多钱 CBA已经有限制球星收入 球星已有牺牲 而为中产阶级留下一些钱 不过球员们始终是一人一票不分阶级 中下阶层的球员们始终是多数 他们也许有权力於工会推翻CP3甚至其他球星的政权 --
