It was about stopping the domination of LA.... and ONLY LA. That seems to be what it was about.
Actually all of those laughable contracts will hurt those teams about 30% more than they would have in 2008.... Paying that much for second/third tier players actually plays into our hands if we can actually cash in on the value we have on the roster....
None of those guys are winning a championship at those prices on those teams....
