What happens when a league restricts movement and money?

By Tangotiger, 03:20 PM

Other “lesser” leagues offer more.  There’s always a danger that if you pay too low that you get a new WHA on your hands.  Baseball and American Football is pretty regional, but I can see a time when the NBA will get itself a firm challenger overseas, just as the NHL already has the potential for challenge with the KHL.

Benevolent monarchs are good.  They just don’t really exist much or stay benevolent long.
