To supply an expansion team with its initial complement of players,
the league holds an expansion draft prior to that year's NBA draft.
拓邊球隊球隊的選秀會在當年的新秀選秀之前舉行。
Existing teams are allowed to protect up to eight players (including
restricted free agents) from being selected in the expansion draft,
but every team must expose at least one player. Unrestricted free
agents can neither be protected from nor selected in the expansion
draft, and are essentially ignored. Restricted free agents (see
question number 34) may be selected, but become unrestricted free
agents upon selection (with the caveat that they cannot then re-sign
with the team from which they came). No team may lose more than one
player in an expansion draft.
Some players may become unrestricted free agents due to the invocation
or non-invocation of an option or ETO (see question number 48). The
league uses their status on the day of the expansion draft -- i.e.,
if a player has invoked his option or ETO by the day of the expansion
draft, then he is treated as a free agent. If a player has not invoked
an option or ETO by the day of the expansion draft, then he is treated
as being under contract (so it is possible for Charlotte to select a
player in the expansion draft who then invokes his option, becomes an
unrestricted free agent, and signs elsewhere).
For the 2004 expansion draft, Charlotte will select a minimum of 14
and a maximum of 29 players (no more than one player from each team),
and may stop at any point between 14 and 29. They will get the #4 pick
in both rounds of the 2004 NBA draft, and no restrictions will exist
in any subsequent draft (Vancouver and Toronto could not receive the
first pick for four seasons).
Existing teams are allowed to compensate expansion teams (usually
with draft picks), in exchange for selecting or not selecting
particular players in the expansion draft. For example, in the
1995 expansion draft (when Vancouver and Toronto entered the
league), Orlando left Darrell Armstrong, Anthony Avent, Rodney
Dent and Geert Hammink unprotected, but did not want to lose
either Armstrong or Hammink. They gave Vancouver their 1996
second round pick in exchange for Vancouver selecting Dent with
the second pick in the expansion draft. With Dent claimed by
Vancouver, Armstrong and Hammink became ineligible to be selected.
底下是一些既有球隊可採行的技巧。
既有球隊可以與拓邊球隊談條件，送他們一個選秀權，然後要他們選
擇特定球員。魔術當年沒有保護 DA 與 Hammink，但又不希望他們被
灰熊選走，所以他們送灰熊一個第二輪選秀權，要求灰熊挑走 Dent.
這樣他們就可以保住以上兩名球員
It is also common to see teams leave a desirable player unprotected,
hoping that the player's age and/or high salary will dissuade the
expansion team from selecting him. This allows those teams to
protect an additional player whom they might have been more likely
to lose. Or in some cases, they might dangle a high-priced player
hoping the expansion team takes him off their hands.
Expansion teams have a lower salary cap for the first two years of
their existence. In their first year, their salary cap is 2/3 the
salary cap for the rest of the league. In their second year, it's
3/4 the salary cap for the rest of the league. Beginning with their
third season, they have the same salary cap as the other teams.
Their minimum salary is lower as well -- in their first two seasons,
the minimum salary for expansion teams is 3/4 of the minimum salary
for the other teams.
If an expansion team drafts a player in the expansion draft and
waives him prior to the first day of the season, then that player's
salary does not count against their salary cap (although they still
have to pay him). This provides some protection against bad decisions
made in the expansion draft -- Charlotte could select a player, later
decide they don't really want him, and waive him without their cap
being negatively affected.
Most league calculations (average salary, total benefits, total
salaries, BRI, salary cap) simply ignore expansion teams (and the
players on those teams) for two years. For example, the league
calculates the average salary by adding up the team salaries for
every team, and dividing by an amount equal to the number of teams
times 12.5. In an expansion team's first two seasons, for this
calculation, the total team salaries does not include the expansion
team, and nor does the number of teams.
聯盟關於收益、球員與球隊薪資等等的各種會計計算，前兩年都將排
除掉拓邊球隊（不然會很混亂）。
The Charlotte expansion team will not be eligible to share in any
luxury tax or escrow distributions until the 2005-06 season.
相對地，拓邊球隊前兩年也不能分享聯盟的稅收分配。
Basketball Related Income (BRI) does not include the fee expansion
teams pay to join the league.
