OaT v5 - Q&A

[roc]

I have to admit I'm too dumb to do the math, seriously, I just don't get it. :(:( And the Knicks have a lot of newly signed guys :(

One more example for Noah or Lee please?

I know you were asking roc, but, I think, using Noah as an example...

Noah RL salary = $17M
RL salary cap = $94M

17,000,000/94,000,000 = .18

Noah's RL max would be 30% of the cap because he's a 9-year vet. So

.18/.3 = .6(60%)

Noah's max in the game is also 30%, which means .3 * $85M, which is $25,500,000

Finally, .6 * $25M = $15,300,000

And then you do the 4.5% raises starting with 15.3M.

Roc can correct me if I'm wrong.


I do think this is going to cause problems for people and still think it would be much easier to just raise the cap, even though I've already done all of my adjustments.

So is this correct:

Durant 9year vet 30%

RL salary $26,540,100

$26,540,100/$94,000,000 = 0,2823414894

Durants max is 30percent so 0.3

0,2823414894/0,3 = 0,9411382979

His max in the game is $25.500.000

0,9411382979 x 25,500,000 = 23,999,026

So his salary is

$23,999,026 $25,078,982 (PO)

exactly!

Got every contract it was a helluva work

Durant $23,999,026 $25,078,982 (PO)
Noah $15,300,000 $15,988,500 $16,677,000 $17,365,500
Lee $10,165,638 $10,623,091 $11,080,544 $11,537,997
Thomas $5,598,244 $6,018,112 $6,437,980 $6,857,848
Jennings $4,521,276



One more question:

New york also signed Kuzminkas and Hernangomez but they are rookies. Do I still re-work the contracts but based on 4 years 20% although they are rookies?

rookie deals don't need to be changed... good to go.

Can we waive players already and mini-amnesty players? Which thread?

[Zion Wembanyama]

I think I discovered an easier way to do that math last night. I'll try my hand at it.

Based on r0c confirming these are correct.

So I have the Bucks and could use some help figuring out what everyone's salary should be...

Dellavedova signed for $9,607,500 which is about 10% of the salary cap so would he be $8.5M each year in this.

Noah RL salary = $17M
RL salary cap = $94M

17,000,000/94,000,000 = .18

Noah's RL max would be 30% of the cap because he's a 9-year vet. So

.18/.3 = .6(60%)

Noah's max in the game is also 30%, which means .3 * $85M, which is $25,500,000

Finally, .6 * $25M = $15,300,000

And then you do the 4.5% raises starting with 15.3M.

I'll use Jeremy Lin for an example.


Starting with the Dellavedova example.

Lin signed for $11,483,254, which is 12% ($11,483,254/$94,000,000 = .1221622765957447) of the RL salary cap.
So .12 x $85,000,000 = $10,200,000


And now for the Noah example to check my math.


Lin's RL 2016/17 salary = $11,483,254
RL cap = $94M

$11,483,254/$94,000,000 = .1221622765957447

Lin's RL max is 25% of the cap, since he's a 7-year vet, so....

.12/.25 = .48

Lin's in-game max is .25, so .25 x $85,000,000 = $21,250,000

.48 x $21,250,000 = $10,200,000.

$10,200,000 with 4.5% raises to complete the contract.


So basically, once you figure out what percent of the RL salary cap is your players 2016/17 salary of, you take that percentage and multiply it by the in-game salary cap for 2016/17.

shouldn't the contraction draft go ABA, not AAA?

The first 20 teams get stars, and then the last two get nothing

[roc]

We always have done the contraction draft order like the RL draft order.

Most of the worst teams are still not contenders like the best teams even after drafting great players. NOP and DEN probably took the biggest leap forwards in terms of playoff positioning but they still need more work to really compete for the crown. Denver does have some good pieces they can use to build the right team around Bron though so they would be my pick for biggest leap this season. It all comes down to if they play their cards right though. As of now they only have 1 star player and while he is always in the picture... he has not got the ring without other all stars around him.

Can we waive players already and mini-amnesty players? Which thread?

I have not posted the waivers & amnesties thread yet.

I will open it after conclusion of draft.

The reason it is not yet open...

released players can be picked up off wire for 24 hours (bidding starts at 1 year vet min and can go up from there) IF bidding higher than vet min you will need to have cap space (which we will not know how much we each have til rosters are set after draft) and the team that released player will be able to remove the amount of new contract from finances.

For those of us with two teams - will we be allowed to trade between them? Will there a quota, like one trade between your teams per season/game?

[BdeRegt]

Do teams with a player deemed out for the season in this get to use the disabled player exception?

[roc]

I am leaning towards no but will contemplate a bit before final answer.

[Dan Verze]

Hey roc per list I wanted rob covington but my pick was skipped. Is it ok if Inadd him to my team?

[roc]

We haven't used it in past OaTs but sure, why not.

I understand you don't want people making deals that aren't fair between their teams, but maybe either you or someone else could act as an arbiter, where if someone wants to make a trade between their own teams, it has to be approved as fair by objective eyes first. I think it's been done that way before.

[Ralnor]

How/where does coaching things happen at?

Where do we put amnesty decisions and waivers?

[Ralnor]

question

The mini amnesty can be used on players that can be fa after this season correct?

[roc]

question

The mini amnesty can be used on players that can be fa after this season correct?

sure but you will risk paying out part of salary to a player no longer on your team. If that is player you would really like to use it on... I would suggest waiting til after signing them in FA (if you do) and then use it.

I let teams trade that way in last OaT because we only had 12 owners and 24 teams so everyone had a 2nd team in that game.

That is exactly how it went... offer was sent to commish to make sure it was fair before it was ever posted.

I am leaning towards allowing it but am still deciding.

lol I just answered while you were reposting question.
