"Likely to be Earned" incentives (generally speaking, those that match prior year performance) count against the cap anyway.  One's not falling in that category create an unpredictability of where you'll be cap wise.  Either way, your cash spend is uncertain.2. So long as another team will offer few fewer incentives and more signing bonus and salary, insisting on incentives is a competitive disadvantage.The way the whole thing is structured in the CBA and the fact it is a competitive market for talent (barring illegal collusion), that while we might like to see a pig with wings for the entertainment value, it's not going to happen.A small incentive here or there, or on rare occasion one big one, sure.  But you're not going to see 25% of the cap covered under incentives.</blockquote>
