My idea to make the NBA better
Here is my idea to make the NBA better, make more money for the NBA and for
the player's association.
Let each team send one or two players to the NBDL to play. They can pull them
back at any time. The rule would be that you can have no more than 3 years of
NBA experience to be sent down to the "minors".
Each team would be able to increase its roster by 1 from 15 to 16 but still
maintain the twelve standard playing roster. A player on the injured reserve
could be eligible to play in the minors.
The player's association would like this because it gets an additional 30
players NBA money. The NBA would like it because he would improve the quality of
play and they would make more money from NBDL attendance and viewership. The
NBA fans would love it because they would have an opportunity to follow and
watch a player on their favorite team have a chance to play and develop.
As for how it would work with the NBDL, they would suck up the best players
available because they want to win and/or get exposure. I assume to start they
would have a draft to get rights for any player with 3 years of experience or
less. The NBA parent team has the right to push and pull the player as they
desire. However, the NBDL team has the right to determine who plays and how
much. So a team could send a play down and he may not get as much time as the
parent team desires. If so, that is too bad for them. Maybe they can help
faciliate a trade of that player's rights to another team.
This makes too much sense for it to happen. Kind of like a college football
playoff. But it would be great for the league.....
