One thing that would be interesting in the next CBA would be to allow players to re-negotiate their salary at the time of a trade.
Not something I'd want teams to be able to do at any time since teams would 100% abuse it and try to force guys on the team to renegotiate all the time.
But at the time of a trade it would be interesting. Like if Jones would be willing to take a pay cut and the team acquiring him would also make the trade in that scenario then I think that could be interesting.
Guys like Jones signed a big deal, but a team like Chicago has no real incentive to retain salary either, but not sure he should be stuck there to play out his contract if he was willing to take a lag cut.
