Basketball: NBA and CBA agree on 6-year deal!!!

Just yesterday, the CBA and NBA had been rumoured to have agreed on a 6-year deal. This has only been rumoured but they say that it should be officially announced this week sometime.

The official age limit to enter the NBA is now going to be 19 so no high schooler can enter the draft without one first year of college/university. There is going to be a bigger salary cap. There will also be shorter contracts. Here is the website you need to check out:

Good to see that NBA took care of their cba issues without missing a beat, the NHL should take some notes.

I like the new rules. That is awesome. I wish that NHL would do the same thing like Proud American said.

Yeah, top job by the NBA higher-ups. It can't be easy to manage the demands of a group of multi-multi-millionaires but they do it pretty well.

I like that they're forcing high school kids to get some education.
