Incidentally, players are not allowed to become player-coaches. This is because it would be possible to circumvent the cap by signing a player as a player-coach, and paying him less as a player but overpaying him as a coach. The only payment a team can make to a player is for rendering services as a basketball player.

Even if that was possible, Al could only be player-coach this year and next at most.
When was the last player-coach?
would Al be a good coach? legitimate question, not sarcasm
