Season news are always very/too late - obviously that does not bother the owners, otherwise it would of changed.

But never so late....I just think is Marin's job to do this and that maybe something happened is his real life,because today he has been not logged.

Christmas shopping maybe - it does not worry me he is not online on a saturday. There are other guys that could release the info, unfortunately this does not seem to be a high priority...

There is one point you miss here. You are talking about % raise or decrease taking into account last season salaries, but this is not 100% right. Each new season, global salaries are readjusted so even without any change in any formula, a player with no training won't have the same salary as the previous season. So this 5% could have been an 8%, for example.
On the other hand, I don't know your player's skills, so I can't tell you if you are a LI team or not, but just tell me if I am wrong guessing that your SF has more IS as your PG.
I know mine though, and the ones who were inside oriented have a higher salary as expected and the ones outside oriented a lower one. You don't know their skills and I am not going to put them here, so I can't prove anything either.
Well, I can put Chaperon skills (all seem to know them), who is a player supporting my theory, but I don't know if you believe more in Marin or in BM.

Last two seasons the news were released on Saturday if I am right, so it's not so uncommon not having them yet. In fact, some seasons ago they used to be released even later.
Not saying that it won't be better if they are released sooner, though

I am sorry but you are still missing the point.
This is not about player salary but team salary.
Yes, guards with IS have a higher salary now, and nobody disputes that.
I also dont care if the raise for my players was 5% or 8%.
I still had a raise on ALL players and i am NOT a LI team.

In season 35 they were released at Wednesday/Thursday night, to be clear. Season later they came up at Friday/Saturday night. It's already Saturday evening in Europe... I believe that lack of news about changes in upcoming season make managers like me a bit worried. Please, give us a signal when we'll be able to see the news to let us know that situation is under control.

It's not that important, but they were released on 28th Mai (Saturday). Anyway, the plans are to release them today.

I'm trying to build a non-LI team as well, and I'll have to re-adjust what my bigs will look like because of this change, but fortunately it's only a minor adjustment (probably 1 or 2 less PA on my bigs than they would have otherwise received). I don't mind this change, because salaries better reflect the calibur of players but if this was done to influence LI, I think there was flawed logic behind that.

Imo, if you want to reduce dominance of LI, make defending it easier; it could be done in a number of ways, including tinkering with 2-3 zone, or SB again.
