Points system is crap

^agreed, a points system in all sports would prevent any salary cap breach. I think if they employed the same system for the NRL, Melbourne storm probably wouldnt be going through what they are now. and this can stop people from bitching about how other teams have clearly gone over the salary cap. good idea for the NBL in thinking outside the square. if anything they just need to rate players a bit better, if i remember correctly during the off season a few players points ratings were a bit questionable, but no major hiccups.

Point System works

Years ago

Certainly it seems to have worked very well in the NBL and definately stops some of the bought Championships by vanished teams in the past.

Actually the AFL should look at adopting the NBL points system to go with their salary cap and then allow players to nove once their contract has been completed or mutually terminated/paid out. Works for Basketball, NRL, Soccer etc in Australia so why not AFL?

Kabam! Ban Hammer of the Gods has been wielded.

Those who flaunted with being smotten have been smite.

It's all happening.





P.S You look great today Isaac. Have you been working out?


In summary:

Points system good.
Starting 17 threads an hour - bad.
Remaining PC and respectful - good.

LOL!

Points system is actually proving to be a very effective means of enjsuring parity. I think other leagues may end up looking at whjat the NBL is doing with regards to this and potentially adopt a version for use themselves...

How many other leagues arround the world have parity similar to what we have achieved(after we got rid of the Tigers loopholes). While the points cap is not perfect it is an inovative and much more transparent way of achieving the goals of parity and sustainablity. The use of both caps helps to achieve this.
