Yeah, that's my point -- that GS, like every team, does try to limit payroll and tax to a certain level that they find acceptable.
Interestingly, a 2023-24 payroll that's in that 200-or-so range, which you think is feasible for them to achieve, fits right into the ballpark of what they've been doing. If we plug in 202M as the number ...
Last season - payroll 175 and tax 170.
This season (so far) - payroll 190 and tax 170
2023-24 (projection) - payroll 202 and tax 170
