    Plus it's only a 5% increase so the final year should only be about 9.7. Doubt he will lose his shooting touch by then.
    Chalk it up to being a noob/bad GM. lol

    You'll be good. Better to wait then through out a bad contract that you'll regret for 7 seasons *cough* Canada.

    "I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

    I still believe the Ernest Brown contract was the worst. He literally did NOTHING to warrant the money he got.

    BSH gets all the credit for that.

    Great signings for everyone. Love the job the Nuggs are doing.

    Happy to welcome Posey into the fold. Let's go Heat!

    I like Etan Thomas, but I would give up a 1st round pick to get rid of his contract.

    Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams

    Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston

    Short term deal at 10 a year. May have overpaid a little but I have the space and he is exactly what I need.

    How short, 1 or two years?


    Good pickup, he seems to have improved upon his turnovers drastically over the years. Just wouldn't use him as a first scoring option.

    50 Points from the Lakers SMH. Can I say that the Shaq and Stack pairing was ill advised?

    3 years.

    Sound, that is going to be my dilemma, how to decide who gets the 1st option between he bosh and bibby. Last season Bosh was #1 the entire year, but I think he was too young to be the #1 guy, so this season i was thinking about at least starting the year off having Bibby at 1 and bosh at 2. But getting stack makes my decision harder.

    I typically don't like to use my point guard as a first or second option so they can distribute the ball more. (Unless he truly is a stud).

    Stack is an awesome option, just when I had him (years ago) I had to keep him as option 2 because of his turnovers. He seems to have improved since then, especially since BSH spent $50 on his ball Handling.

    I offered 3 years as well, but lower per year. I had more holes to fill.

    I agree with Sound about having PGs being a third option especially if you have capable first and second options. Hell I had Gary Payton as my third option behind Webber and Jones and he still avg'd around 18 a game and close to 9 assists.

    Last year I was experimenting with Francis at 1, 2, and 3. I think the supporting casts makes it very difficult to not ride Francis at 1 or 2 all season.

    Aw man! I was so ready to be disappointed to see Mo Pete turn down my offer :P

  20. #195
    Do I have to resend my bids if the player I bidded on in a previous Sim is still avaiable?

    Offered more than space afforded? Or didn't offer enough?

    Still, Stackhouse is a monster. Wish i could've gone after him (damn you sprewell...)
