I've always viewed NBA salary negotiations as being billionaire owners arguing that millionaire players make too much money. That said, my political progressive politics also sneak in a little bit. The Warriors are worth 7 billion! Damn, that sure creates an income disparity in the league. Then I laugh at my hypocritical self for siding with the owners who are lesser billionaires than some others.

Drafting well -> developing well -> paying your own players should be treated differently than paying max dollars to other teams’ free agents. The former should be encouraged / incentivized and the latter discouraged, with a salary cap or otherwise. Big market teams have no advantage in the former pursuit.
