  1. Apart from the BRI, what concessions have the players made? Under the NBA's proposed deal: The salary cap is the same for the next two years and then it's going up, not down. Tax threshold is going up, not down. Salary floor going from 75% to 90%. Average salaries projected to go from 5 million to 8 million over the life of the deal. MLE is basically the same. There's a new "Room" exemption. Only the MLE for tax paying teams is really restricted. And that was only used a handful of times during the entirety of the last CBA. So the players are going to go to court and argue what? They have the highest revenue share of any US sport. They have the highest average salary of any sport. They have guaranteed contracts. And the NBA is losing $300 million a year. Look at the NFL case, a league that is making a ton of money still had the courts rule in their favor.
