short-sighted NBA where they want to appease the owners rather than the fans. And so now they're up in arms like, why are the fans upset? It's because you prioritized the cash flow or not having to overspend in order to be competitive rather than the product, rather than building better teams, which has been proven time and time again. People want to see. People want to see the super teams.

They don't want to see the parity in the smaller markets and all this other stuff. And I get it if you're a smaller market and you don't have the opportunity to land some of those bigger players, you feel like there's a disadvantage. I frankly don't care because the product overall is better. And if you care about money to begin with, this is how you make more money.

It's a lot. I actually have an idea for you guys because I had this down on my list as well. So the apron has become the biggest boogeyman in the NBA at this point, right? All about second apron. Can't do the second apron. Can't even go over the first apron because that restricts you in certain ways now.

What if, because the apron is such a deterrent from transactions, we actually get rid of salary matching in trade? So in the NBA, unlike in baseball in particular, you have to match salaries up to a certain percentage, right? So that's why you can't trade Jimmy Butler for Brandon Pajemski straight up. What if we just abolished that and allowed the aprons to do the restricting?

And so you could trade a big star for a bunch of young players without having to take back contracts like the expiring contracts are just bad contract, which is a huge part of this discourse every single year. And you just let teams the penalty would just be the apron penalties at that point. So it really be come down to who wants to spend and who doesn't.
