NBA salary cap guru

Liked this story about a mild-mannered computer scientist who also happens to be the pre-eminent authority on the NBA salary cap.

He runs the definitive plain-English breakdown of the cap and is often the source on all salary-cap issues for sportswriters, the blogosphere and, to a lesser extent, from the league itself.

The cap is based around the current 425-page collective bargaining agreement which is heavy on legalese and apparently "only looks like English" [emphasis added].

All this, and I think he'd still struggle with some of the 'intricacies' of the NBL's cap, in particular its rating (and re-rating) system.
