agree, bitch move.
Still, a lot of Euro guys might be willing to come here for 2 years and win a ring, make a name for themselves playing for the minimum salary, then get a big deal.
And there are a lot of 5 or 7 year NBA vets, guys financially set for life, who may be willing to play for minimum for 3 years in order to get a ring. Guys like nate robinson (BOS), Zydrunas, Tracy Mcgrady. Rich jefferson from Spurs... Josh Howard would be a great one. Maybe a Mike Miller or some other big white guy as center.
So while i agree it'll be like the Dream team that got the bronze, if they can get guys to play dirt cheap, they can't help but win 1 when they should win 4.
