If only there was some mechanism in the cba where you could effortlessly retain a players rights until they were 26...
Some kind of, oh I don't know, an egalitarian dispersal mechanism for all new talent coming into the league.
It would have to be some kind of a situation where every team was on equal footing every year, and where teams who weren't as good had the ability to even the playing field by getting first crack at the best new talent.
I don't know what you'd call it. Do any other leagues do something like this?
Nah, maybe it's best to change the cba so that you could force players to play for you against their will. Where it didn't matter how attractive your franchise was, you could simply compel players to play for you or not play at all.
Yeah, that's the ticket. Force it. Ignore that other thing about talent dispersals, just make the best players play for you.
