Pacers cut Luke Nevill

For too many reasons to note, using Nevill's situation as a argument against the player point system is an incredibly poor argument, regardless of whether or not the PPS is beneficial to the NBL.

Comparing the NBL's system to the AFL or NRL's is just plain moronic. Hey, why not introduce a $58mil salary cap because the NBA has one... derps

Anon, the AFL has a draft and trade system that is far more restrictive than the NBL ever could be.

And then your suggestion is to increase the salary cap - when teams continue to go broke as is?

The reduction in the salary cap did not cause the public to lose interest in basketball. Rather it was the public losing interest in basketball that meant that the league could not continue to afford the excessive spending that had characterised the sport in the 90's and early 2000's.

No NBL club can sign him unless they release a player or two.

Whilst I would have loved to see him hang in there, I thought this was inevitable.

Will be interesting to now see where he lands...
