NBA salary cap rises by $5M, but will fall $2M short of expectations
NBA薪資上限調整不如原先預期

The NBA notified teams in a memo on Wednesday that the projected salary cap
will come in at $99 million, about $2 million less than estimates in April.
NBA聯盟在星期三以備忘錄的形式通知各隊，薪資上限會為9900萬鎂，比原先在四月份    
所推估的少了200萬鎂。

In addition, the luxury tax has been lowered from $121 million to a
projection of $119 million.
豪華稅也會調降，從1億2100萬鎂下修到1億1900萬鎂。

This will squeeze some teams looking to create space to sign free agents when
the negotiating period begins on July 1.
這就會讓某些隊在七月一日後簽自由球員的時候會有點卡卡的了。

The drop was caused by the number of playoff games being fewer than expected,
as the recent postseason was dominated by lopsided series that were shorter
than anticipated.
下修的理由是因為今年的季後賽場數比之前預測的少太多。

The salary cap is still increasing by about $5 million from last season, but
it isn't growing as much as previously expected. At one point, the NBA
forecast this season's cap to go as high as $108 million.
薪資上限比去年多500萬鎂，但是比預期調整的幅度來的低。曾經有一度聯盟預測可以到  
達1億800萬鎂。

The league is still undergoing massive growth, driven by new television
revenues. Between 2010-15, the cap increased from $58 million to $63 million.
It has grown by $36 million over the course of the past three years.
NBA市場仍然在快速成長，主要是電視轉播收入。從2010到2015，薪資上限從5800萬鎂上
升到6300萬鎂，而過去三年就上升了3600萬鎂。

難怪聯盟要插手，不要再橫掃了，這樣真的錢賺太少(?)了....
