The 2011 Salary Cap will be roughly $54 million dollars.(give or take a million). Which means the max these guys can be around 16.2 or so million a year. Now with all these guys like bosh and lebron and what not wanting to team up, this would leave teams like the bulls $800k to get a bench. Which means if they wanna win a championship or team up. All these guys will have to take 1 or 2 million a year less than MAX. Thats gonna be easier to do in Miami over anywhere else because Illinois charges a 3% income tax which is almost half million a year for these guys and New York and NJ have an income tax as well. This is all under the 2007-2011 collective bargaining agreement.

Kinda correct. The max they can make for the first year, after that it gets progressively higher. By his 3rd, 4th, or 5th year, he'll make 20 million a year.

P.S. - watch out for the Nets to makes some moves. Great owner, coach, management. Great young PG, and Center. Good pick in the draft and enough money for almost 2 max contracts. Plus theyre moving to NYC brooklyn in 2 yrs in a brand new arena

The owner is rich, he hasn't had time to prove he's a great owner by any means.
Avery Johnson is a good coach, not a great coach. Devin Harris and Brook Lopez are good solid players, not great. You throw around the word great a lot.
