passage · full text (1,005 characters)
The NBA had a salary cap in the mid-1940s, but it was abolished after only one season. The league continued to operate without such a cap until 1984-85 NBA season, when one was instituted in an attempt to level the playing field among all of the NBAs teams and ensure competitive balance for the Association in the future. Before the cap was reinstated, teams could spend whatever amount of money they wanted on players, but in the first season under the new cap, they were each limited to 3.6millionintotalpayroll.Underthe2005NBAcollectivebargainingagreement,salarieswerecappedat57percentofbasketball−relatedincome(BRI)andlastedforsixyearsuntilJune30,2011.ThenextCBA,whichtookeffectin2011−12,setthecapat51.2percentofBRIin2011−12,witha49−to−51bandinsubsequentyears.Thesalarycapforwassetat3.6 million in total payroll.
