Maybe Commish can push this deadline from Wednesday up til like 9 or 10pm tomorrow night? Or maybe tomorrow afternoon at like 5? I dunno.... 3 days is nuts though!

Maybe 11 tonight or 12 am? How long has free agency been going? Since yesterday and if a simmed tonight at 11 or 12 it will make 2 days. Aw what the heck, 5 would be good. lol

I don't really think that money matters that much during free agency on here, I think other things play also part in where a player will play in the end.

I really wanted to keep Alexander but 8.5 is too damn much. He was like a son to me

If I didn't have Manu, I would have offered him 5 million at least.

[Pelicans78]

I'm also hoping to sign every player I made offers to. I only have 8 guys on the roster right now after I released my 2nd round picks.

[Xist2inspire]

Pfft, I only have 4.

Just stay away from Etan. He was one of the guys I acquired for Sheed.

Bojangles doing his thing right about now!!

Sorry bro, he's one of my 3 main targets this offseason. Given that target #2, Courtney Alexander, looks unattainable (curse you, Zolinho), I'm seriously contemplating going all-in on Etan. If I do, you'll either be forced to overpay, or bow out. I'm comfortable with my current offer as of now, but I can, and will go up.

Who is over the Warriors?

Yeah thats not really fair to anyone except the few that placed bids. Detroit, LA, Seattle need to place bids amongst many others.

I drafted Drew Gooden who has similar ratings to Etan Thomas so I don't have to go full bore for Etan. At best he's a double-double guy but won't ever be a top 3 scoring option.

[Pelicans78]

I'm surprised how many FAs are being offered cheap contracts, especially compared to what they made last season.

[Xist2inspire]

Hornets78, if all goes as planned (highly unlikely), Etan will be my 6th man.

I do want him starting, but it wouldn't surprise me if Drew Gooden passes him in training camp. Gooden is already a better inside scorer and rebounder. Thomas isn't a scoring option since he's a poor ball-handler (turnover prone), poor FT shooter, and only a B- inside.

[Xist2inspire]

He probably will, Gooden was an excellent draft pick. Honestly, I'm trying to build a solid defensive team while avoiding players with C or less potential, since they stand a very good chance of getting worse in training camp. Etan fit the bill.

Unfortunately for me, Etan only has a loyalty of 3. That's really low. He has a greed of 87 and play for winner at 63. Basically, if I want him, I have to offer more than anyone else. I'm not sure if I will go that far. I really like him since he can be a double-double guy and I got him in the Rasheed trade, but I have other pieces I need as well.

[bustahyndes]

That and the Nuggets signing all second round rookie releases? There needs to be strict punishment IMHO. No offense but rbow.'s tanking last year was terrible enough and now this? Just going to perpetuate. I really think just taking their first rounders away would be grand.

woah im in rebuild mode, isnt it my job to sign and test out rookies? im not tanking at all

[coltsguy510]

I retracted my fake fake offer.

[Soundwave]

How in the hell did fake fake even get into this sim league?

[coltsguy510]

There are actually some 2nd round FA's with good potential.

[IamQuailman]

Is there a hard deadline for FA offers/sim on 26th? Like no offers after X:00pm etc

Not that I know of. Basically anytime on the 26th.

[IamQuailman]

Shoot, hopefully CP can give us a rock solid time for those who may have work and needa get last second offers in
