This past season the NBA salary cap for each team rose to $94.1 million per team and it was projected to rise to $101 million per team next season.
But the "super teams" in the East and West could actually have hurt the NBA and may cause that number to fall which could throw the proverbial monkey wrench into the plans of some GMs.
Even if the Warriors/Cavaliers finals goes to seven games, this year would still be tied for the second fewest total NBA playoff games since the first round was expended to the best-of-seven game format we have today.
