Does a salary cap hurt the nba?

would it be better if their were powerhouse teams in the nba. would it be better if teams were back like the celtics, lakers, and bulls. when the nba was having problems in the 80's the celtics, and lakers saved the nba. The nba has done alot better when there were better powerhouse teams, and the ratings of the nba finals prove them, they were much better with michael jordan and the bulls.

In my opinion, salary caps hurt any professional sport. It's a way of telling the teams in smaller areas that they're not good enough to do anything without some sort of bureaucratic interference. Take away the salary caps and let the teams pay what they can to their players. If a player has the skill and is well coached, he doesn't have to be highly compensated in order to win. The NCAA doesn't limit the number of top high school recruits that a givencollegecan put on scholarship and there are plenty of annual powerhouses in football and basketball. It hasn't hurt thecollegegame to have the powerhouse teams.

Does a salary cap hurt the nba?nba news ,nba teams

No not to much
well yes because they can't trade according to really what they want.
Salary caps are implemented to keep things fair throughout the league. Why have 30 teams if only the same few can actually win a championship? A teams' success should be based on their player management and teamwork, not how deep the organization's pockets are. I wouldn't want to go watch a team that has no chance of winning because their franchise isn't as wealthy as the others. Without a salary cap, teams would slowly go bankrupt and shrink the league.
No it doesn't what has hurt the NBA was expansion. It filtered the talent pool, and offered lesser quality players employment with NBA teams.

Guys like Mario Bennett, Marc Randall, and Tod Murphy played due to expansion, later they were found out to be straight garbage and released, but if there was no expansion we could have had MJ play with Vince or even KG. Think about that.

The NBA was great due to having the world best players now we can't say that, because of expansion.
Two questions with very different answers. A salary cap is necessary to keep costs in line. Otherwise ticket prices will keep going through the roof and attendance will drop. The ensuing loss of revenue will hit the weaker teams in smaller venues faster than others. Some teams will disappear and instead of 32 teams, we'll see something like 20 teams, much smaller salaries, shorter seasons, etc. Then ever so slowly, the cycle will begin anew. Now Is it better to have power house teams, like those as of old? Yes it does, on the one hand. Because it gets into the business of having teams where the players stay several seasons, even a career. They are known, everyone has favorites, attendence is always up. Or you can root for the underdog, knowing any team can beat any other team on any given night. You just must have enough parity in the league to make it competitive and not like the Celtics 11 championships in 13 years. At that point, everyone "knows" the Celtics would win and why go to the game. It got boring. Stayed that way for a while, as the league struggled to get better parity and realign the conferences, etc., to produce a better situation, where there were several strong teams (Lakers, Sixers, Celtics, Hawks, Bulls, and Phoenix to name most) fighting for the championship.
No. It hhelps tha NBA get more fans just like the NFL because it creates parody among teams.
How is the no salary cap thing doing with baseball?

Almost every baseball headline you hear is about steroids and nothing about great baseball.
