I wasn't trying to catch you. I assumed that you would agree that the NBA is better off with spending restrictions than it would be were there none. I guess you'd rather have an MLB-style system of haves and have-nots in which the big market franchises dominate the small markets, which is ironic since you're a Kings fan.
You're entitled to your viewpoint, I just don't see how you can argue that the NBA isn't better off with spending restrictions.
I think it's a bit of a myth that caps are required to "level the playing field". MLB has had 8 different World Series winners in the last 10 years. The NBA had no cap at all in the 70s yet teams like The Bucks, Warriors, and Sonics all won titles in the 70s.
