where players are under contract and can't just jump ship whenever they want
NBA has a lot of things to like but this one is a miss. Players regularly sign 5 year contracts with a franchise they don’t intend to stay with and demand trades saying they’re unhappy. Anthony Davis and Paul George both did this 1 year into 5 year deals.
Then if they don’t get their way they conveniently have an ailment(Ben Simmons) or get so out of shape and play so badly that they kill their trade value(James Harden).
So you really aren’t any more assured of a player staying on your team more than a year at a time outside of their rookie contract.

Yeah, I have a lot of issues with the NBA but very few of them are related to the product on the court. The prevailing culture of teaming up with other star players and forcing the trades necessary to make it happen with your own shitty, unprofessional behavior is at the top of the list.
