Mostly though, it seems unlikely due to the complexity of the implementation that would be needed. Also since we have no evidence that the caps are based directly on salary.


I do not think it is unlikely. If it is not linked to salary you need to build a totally different assessment of player development. What are you going to choose? Number of skill points? If you want to have something related to the perfomance, it must be position related. This is exactly the way the salary formula has ben implemented. Therefore, it seems to me the most plausible hypothesis for the moment.

Salary, itself, is based on the number of skill points. It's just that the formula is different for every position.

i think (yes, i know its totally offtopic) number of skill points brings a victory for a team. BB is not about whoever has stroger players, its about whoever brings more skills on court. thats why we sometimes see ratings way better and a loss, with equal effort. with boxscore favoring for the team which won.

If it was like that, everybody should train driving and handling as much as possible + add out of position skills to his players (like ID for a PG and JR for Cs) - that way one could maximize the skill volume, while minimizing his salaries...

Any more news on OD affecting the cap or not? I have continued to train my player single position pressure and he has continued to pop every 2-3 weeks with only a level 4 trainer.

Also, when is the supposed soft cap for starter potential players?

Any progress?


Not really. I have had just a few new players this season. Also, I am quitting the game so someone else will have to take on the challenge.
