The Collective Bargaining Agreement of 2017 allowed some veterans to earn supermax salaries, based on making an all-NBA team.“I didn’t? It already came out?” Thompson asked reporters after practice Thursday when he learned he had just missed out on being a third-team selection. “I mean, that’s cool and all, but like when you go to five straight Finals — I respect those guys — but when you go to five straight it takes more than just a couple All-NBA guys.

“I can’t control it,” Thompson said of the connection between All-NBA selection and contracts. “Do I think there’s that many guards better than me in the league? No. But that’s the reason we’re still playing, so I don’t even want to get into it, honestly.”
