CBA recently made adjustments to the player salary system. The overall salary cap of domestic players remains unchanged at 44 million, but the maximum salary has been further compressed, and the salary cap of foreign aid has been reduced from US$7 million to US$5 million. The main purpose of this is to reduce the overall quality of foreign aid, give more opportunities to domestic players, and at the same time promote the flow of players.
The CBA league has just implemented the salary cap system for a year, and it is still in the exploratory stage. After a season of experience, it is generally successful, the league is more standardized, and it is gradually moving towards professional . But there are also some shortcomings. For example, the maximum salary is set too high, and there are not many CBA active domestic players who are eligible to receive an annual salary of 8 million, and there are some premium contracts.
The Zhou Qi , who is known as the league's first center , has not received an annual salary of 8 million. In the past few years, clubs have signed a lot of premium contracts in order to poach people, and some high-paid and low-energy players have appeared. The further reduction of personal salary now is to safeguard the interests of the club, and the transaction is clearly marked with fair competition. The introduction of the buyout system has also changed the status quo of a player who is playing all day. Once he does not play hard, he may be laid off at any time.
In fact, the salary cap of 44 million is not high, because each team will register more than 17 or 8 people, and there are only one or two players in the team who can get high salaries. Transfer to other teams, which is conducive to the flow of players, making the strength between the teams more balanced. The maximum salary of a single player is further reduced, and some teams with less financial conditions can also sign people.
The lowering of the salary cap for foreign aid is also to give domestic players a chance to dominate the game and increase the role and tactical status of domestic players.For $5 million, at most one super foreign aid can be signed, because foreign aid will not consider the salary cap and will definitely maximize their own interests.
top foreign aid like Ma Shang , Jeremy Lin , Jones , Franklin , the salary must be more than 2.5 million US dollars, approaching 3 million US dollars. With the remaining $2 million, it's okay to sign a medium-strength foreign aid. But you can only sign two foreign aids at most. If you sign three, the strength may not be much stronger than that of domestic players, and even not as easy to use as some national players .
Basketball is a team project. It is not enough to have only one super foreign aid. If you want to win, you must have strong domestic players. On the offensive end, the tactical status of domestic players will also be improved, the score will be improved, and there will be many opportunities to deal with key balls, which is conducive to the growth of domestic players.
