Great success! (not really)

2011 CBA: Players can qualify for a better qualifying offer by meeting certain criteria. High-drafted players might receive a lower qualifying offer by failing to meet the same criteria.

Who benefits? The higher qualifying offers help ensure that lower-drafted players who become starters or regular rotation players receive a salary that is in line with their performance. Conversely, the lower qualifying offer for underperforming high draft picks helps protect teams. For instance, rather than submitting an $8.8 million offer to retain the rights to Greg Oden, Portland would be able to offer much less. In fact, I fully expect this to be nicknamed the "Greg Oden Rule."

In addition the new amnesty clause is dubbed by some as the Brandon Roy rule.

Kudos to the Kevin Pritchard regime for getting two new CBA rules named after players he selected. That's a feat!

There should be a Jerryd Bayless rule to keep dumbshits like Rich Cho from trading away talent for nothing but worthless draft picks.

Don't forget the Darius Miles rule about writing threatening letters to the rest of the league, and telling the media that a guy is through.

But seriously, the new rule that a team can only pay $3M per year, not per trade, must be originating from the league having observed Pritchard.
