2002 Free Agency

[ohnosono]

If the 3rd sim isn't tonight you're gonna see bench players being offered 10 million a year.

It would be nice to have some sort of rule in place for the teams who is losing a player to free-agency. Like the ability to max or something so it's easier for that team to keep there player. I'm not only saying this because I will be in that situation next season, just so things can be equal and realistic. Maybe a rule or something dealing with that player loyalty or greed?

[IamQuailman]

You can't really control what the player does; the game controls that. See Tim Hardaway getting max and still leaving for less money to play for the Knicks

Commish, a question for you sir!

Could we do FA sim 2 and 3 tonight (maybe 7:30 and 10?) and then leave the remainder of the signings to when you get back next week? If we leave time between sim 2 and 3 people will go stir crazy (remember trade deadline last season? lol)

I was thinking about it earlier, and I agree. I'm not sure of the times yet, just have your final bids for sim #2 in at 6.

If I waited I would never be able to catch up with four days of people posting bids, I'm barely able to catch up now.

3 year bird rights

[IamQuailman]

Yeah, pretty much you have Bird Rights. Only "problem" is that you can't control loyalty. You could throw 7 year max and the other guy can throw a 6 year max and he could still bolt for the 6-year team. Just the nature of the game!

[AD23forMVP]

I also think you have to realize that those ratings like loyalty are so black and white, just because a guy has a 100 loyalty doesn't mean he'll automatically stay with you.

[IamQuailman]

Exactly. Who the hell knows what logic really drives resigning with a team. lol

must be the hoes

[AD23forMVP]

Personally, I've been through probably 10 or so seasons of this game and I've never put any stock into those three numbers.

Dont you think about it!!!!!

Well, if I couldn't get him one way....

Next year isn't my year though. I prefer more long-term strategies.
