The NBA is not the only league that's got me fired up. Major League Baseball has its faults also. It's completely absurd the length of contracts guys are getting nowadays. The reason these contracts are insane is because a lot of guys only try in their contract years anyway. Not only players, but teams have no chance in the Majors. If you don't have an incredible farm system like the Marlins or the Rays, or the deep pockets of the Yankees, Red Sox, Cubs (who still will never win), or Dodgers how are you supposed to compete? Last year was a fluke of all flukes; one out of every six years a team outside of the major players has a chance to win.
All this being said, I'm not mad at what players get paid, because in my eyes, if somebody is willing to give you that, why would you turn it down. Also, the revenue they create is incredible. I'm not mad about the pay I'm just mad at the way it goes down. We need to fix things, or else it's gonna turn into players running the Drafts and deciding which team they want to play for and how much they'll get paid
