He got an expensive contract and the Lakers waived him but do still have to pay him. So it clears up a spot on the roster itself but counts against the cap, if I’m not mistaken.

What happened with that does he not want to play no more or did they tell him we'll pay you to stay home or can he sign somewhere else

@@Bsfnelz20 they waived/bought him out (and then "stretched out" the remaining amount they owed him so it was only $5M for each of the next few years instead of, i assume, a much larger amount for the 1-2 years left on the original contract--i'm pretty sure this is just an accounting maneuver as far as it counting towards the cap in any given year, he still got paid when he was supposed to). he signed with another team after the lakers but retired due to injuries or something.

He believed he was right on NBA contracts more firmly than I believe in anything in my life. It was a live, real-time instance of the Backfire Effect where the facts made him cling to his beliefs with with more and more fervor. Given how easy it was for him to verify his position, it really shows how powerful the Backfire Effect can be and explains a _lot_ of what is going on in the world right now.

genuinely hope bill wurtz is getting a bag everyone is doing his jokes now lol

@@hansfromcongo6322 Agreed. It goes to show that if you can show any level of competence in the NBA for a few years, you're going to be filthy rich. The Bulls just signed Alex Caruso and his 6.4 PPG to four years and $37 M. I know scoring isn't everything, but the big point is how massively salaries inflated in the past 7 or 8 seasons. Just in 2014, six players earned more than $20 M a season, led by Kobe at $30.5 M, but just this last year 51 players earned more than $20 M, led by Steph Curry at $43M, and 22 players' earning more than Kobe's $30.5 M.

Such a great video! I always wanted somebody break down mid level exceptions, how teams get by over the cap & incentives. Thank you!!!

Your video is so informative that it should be forwarded to 76ers as a front office training material.

Absolutely fantastic video. The animations and the details that took such a complex topic and broke it down - amazing.

I LOVE this video! The information content was awesome but the animation using the old video games as a set up was amazing. keep up the great work. Loved the simcity shout out in there too! keep up the great work.

Luxury Tax Apron refers to a boxing ring apron, which is outside the ropes forming the boundary of the ring, but still on the ring's surface.

Excellent work Ringer! Always enjoy learning about pay structures of various sports leagues 😃🙌

excellent and engaging video. way to go breaking down the complicated bureaucracy in the League

"Mid level exception" got me so hard. great video folks, well done

Now THIS is the content we want. Great stuff guys !!!!

Absolutely loved this one!

This was such a good video. You’ve earned yourself a sub

Very informative video! Great work!

Amazing content! I watched a similar video bout NFL contracts. When I started getting deeper into my obsession with the league... this info comes in real handy when trying to keep up with analysts on podcasts or what have you.

Great content right here

Fantastic primer for the part of the season every fan can get excited for: the off-season. Anyone have a source for the outro song?

This content is really good hope to see more

amazing work!

Next level content right here💯

Great explanation. My problem is players getting a max contract that don't deserve it because their team has no better options.

Great vid this style is good

Not sure what I watched but will rewatch it again :D

Great video. Thanks!

That "Mid Level Exception" tho 😂

It's a lot more complicated than it needs to be, but thanks for at least making me understand it a bit better, even by 20%

Graphics of this video is off the charts

Awesome nba video

Would it be better or worse for the league to get rid of cap hits for guys who teams re-sign after they've drafted them or the player has been on the team for 4+ consecutive years? You'd still have a salary cap, it would have to shrink, but only guys a team has traded for or signed as a FA from another organization would count against the cap.

the graphics are pretty 🔥

Props for the Coffin Flop clip

I thought i had clicked on another video by mistake when this dude sang that "mid-level exception". Absolute necessary, that

Question: with how many years left on a contract can a player sign a extension? Example: a 4yr original contract, can a player sign a extension with 3yrs, 2yrs or would it have to be the last year of his contract?

Subscribed to the channel thanks to the mid-level exception song lol

Was that Isaac Lee on the MLE Jingle?

🎵🎶Mid Level Exception🎵🎶

How much should the midlevel exception be? Why does it change from team to team and year to year? Example, how did Boston wind up with 29M midlevel exception last year?

5:38 Its actually surprising seeing OKC on this list, for one them being a small market team but 2. Being in the luxury tax was the exact reason why they traded Harden if only Clay Bennett decided not to be so cheap 6 years sooner who knows?

10:07 i thought an ad played rq

this is a great video but i watched the whole thing not understanding half of what was being explained 😂

Need more views tbh

Can we get a video on the soccer transfer market?

When you sort this out. Could you also tell us wtf is happening with the Saints salary cap? Cause I'm sure they'e been over for years now...

10:41 havent seen this inn years sheesh

I can't seem to get "mid-level exception" out of my head. Great video though.

Amazing stuff team

More of these

Can you talk about mls contrast?

I love this video so much

Where does the tax payment go to that these teams so often pay? Is it reinvested into the league? Used for NBA executive bonuses? Donated to local team charities?

Why is this not on Spotify as well?
