So I saw this segment on JJ's podcast building a "perfect team" around Michael Jordan in the modern NBA. He gave himself a few parameters like a 12 man roster... a salary cap... and MJ to have a 51M dollar contract (tied for the highest in the NBA with Curry). That was fun he had Jokic and Derrick White and Mikel Brides etc. But I thought some of his rules were too soft like allowing himself rookies on the team which are contract cheats.
Rules:
Max Player: 51M
Team Salary Cap: 195 (188) -Why? Average payroll of contenders
12 man team -4 minimum contracts from legends home team.
No Rookie contracts
No Supermax players (Jaylen Brown, Steph, Giannis, Jokic, Luka, Beal, KAT, Dame, Booker, Embiid, Gobert)
Can only use 1 player from each team -Except the 4 vet minimums from the hometeam
