We're back for Season 73! tough, copilot and the SNTV Crew cooked something up!
đ NBBA SEASON 73 â SMACK PRESSER
âThe Salary Formula Has Shifted. The League Has Changed.âThe BB Federationâs revised salary formula detonated across the NBBA landscape this week, reshaping competitive windows, destabilizing longâstanding roster structures, and forcing every franchise to confront a new economic reality. Multiâskill wings, true SFs, and interiorâdefensive builds saw unprecedented salary spikes, while scoring guards, once considered the most valued archetype in the sport, now face steep capâhold requirements that force teams to choose between perimeter or interior scoring lanes. The result is a league where âmetaâbuilt teamsâ â those constructed around JS/IS/SB versatility â absorbed the harshest financial impact, with several rosters crossing the onceâunthinkable oneâmillionâperâweek threshold.
But not everyone suffered. Some franchises emerged as quiet winners of the salary quake.
Below is the early Season 73 economic scoreboard.
đ˘ WINNERS
âĄElectric Triangles â Their longârunning dayâtrading strategy finally paid off. By offloading salary before the formula shift, they enter Season 73 with flexibility, liquidity, and a clean slate in a league suddenly drowning in payroll.
đKnights of Autumn â Newly promoted and wellâbankrolled (â), Autumn arrives without legacy salary anchors. They can build fresh under the new rules, targeting undervalued scorers and avoiding the ID/SB traps that crippled older NBBA cores.
𦣠Neanderthals â Their quirky, nonâmeta roster construction accidentally dodged every salary bomb. No overloaded SFs, no SBâheavy wings, no IDâstacked hybrids. They enter Season 73 stable while others scramble.
đĽGame Strategy Innovators â The new formula rewards creativity. Expect more experimental lineups, singleâlane scorers (JSâonly or ISâonly), spacingâheavy offenses, and unconventional defensive schemes.
đ´ LOSERS
đ§ MetaâBuilt Teamsâ Any franchise constructed around SBers, scorers and versatility saw massive salary inflation. True SFs collapsed, interior defenders spiked, and multiâskill wings became financial liabilities overnight.
đŹSplash Gang â The hardest hit. Kozin, Guohao, Anderson, Sohn, and Ament all absorbed severe raises, pushing the roster to an unprecedented 1.2M weekly payroll.
âď¸Cassville Yuck â Their spending spree on two former NT stars (Campara and Dusart) came before the formula change. Now those contracts balloon, leaving Cassville exposed and overcommitted.
đ Forward Market â Their pursuit of versatile forward vanished overnight. A key roster move became financially unviable in a single revision for any teams looking for forward depth
đ TRANSFER MARKET â âTHE STOCKS HAVE CRASHEDâ
The salary quake triggered a market correction unlike anything in NBBA history.
Highâvalue players became nonâvalued.
Overpriced wings became unsellable.
Shotâblocking veterans became gold.
Young SBers became poison.
And every franchise now faces a new reality:
Season 73 will be won not just on the court â but in the budget room.
Welcome to Season 73!
