Krap's Wolves' Offseason Game -- PICK A WINNER (POLL)
Posted: Thu Mar 25, 2010 5:23 am
Rules:
Below there will be several decisions to make. You are free to make decisions with regard to free agency, the draft, and trades, but ONLY AMONG THOSE OPTIONS OFFERED. You cannot make up your own trades. You cannot choose different players to draft. You can not sign players deemed unattainable. You have to do your own math to stay under the cap, but numbers will be heavily rounded to make this very, very simple. I suggest you read through once and evaluate all the options before making choices. The number in bracket, i.e. (5) is the players cap value. The projected salary cap for the game will be (55).
After each participant has shaped his 2011 roster we can do a poll to see who did the best job.
_______________________________
2011 Salary Cap = (55)
Beginning Roster:
Jefferson (13)| Love (4) |Sessions (4)| Flynn (3)| Rubio Cap Hold (3) |Brewer (4)| Hollins (2)| Ellington (1) |Gomes (4) |
Total: (38)

Round 1 = Draft
At the draft lottery the Wolves were represented by the man, David Kahn himself. The Wolves were once again unlucky and ended up with the #3 pick. They also received the Bobcats pick #17 and the Utah pick #25. At the draft Kahn tries to wheel and deal, but to no avail. He offers Flynn and the #3 pick for the #2 pick, but is turned down by New Jersey picking second who really want Turner.
Kahn is however presented with two trade offers, which are mutually exclusive --
(1) Option 1: Trade #25 and #17 to Houston for #14
(2) Option 2: Trade #25 and #17 to OKC for #21 and #22 and #32
(3) Option 3: Keep #25 and #17
Rules: For this round you are required to draft players using one of the three options. Assume the draft occurs exactly as draftexpress.com predicts. Thus, Wall is #1, Turner is #2, and Cousins is the first player available using the Wolves pick at #3 and so on. At #14 Henry would be the first player available. At #17 it is Alabi.
Once you make your picks, add the pick values to the roster total above (38) based on the following values:
Pick #3 = (4)
Pick #14 = (3)
Pick #17 = (2)
Pick #21 = (2)
Pick #22 = (2)
Pick #25 = (1)
Pick #32 = (1)
At the end of round one your salary cap value will range between 45 and 47.
___________________________________________________________________________
Round 2 = Team Options
Gomes' team option is up. You now have to make the decision of whether to keep Gomes or not. Unfortunately no team will take him in a trade for a straight salary dump.
(1) Option 1: Keep Gomes (0)
(2) Option 2: Pick up team option and cut Gomes (-3)
At the end of round two your salary cap value will range between 42 and 47.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Round 3 = Trades
The following trades have been proposed to you. You can elect to chose one for each Wolves player listed. Or you can elect to trade none at all.
a) Big Al trades
Option 1: Tayshaun Prince (10) and [Ed Davis or Greg Monroe] (4) for Big Al (You get to choose unless you already picked one of them at #3, then no choice and the other player is offered) = total ( +1)
Option 2: Luol Deng (12) and TaJ Gibson (1) for Big Al = total (- 1)
Option 3: Monta Ellis (11) for Big Al = total (-2)
Option 4: Keep Al = (0)
b) Ramon Sessions trades
Option 1: Straight salary dump (- 4)
Option 2: Keep Sessions (0)
c) Kevin Love trades
Option 1: Wes Johnson (- 1) or Aminu (- 1) [If either player was chosen at #3, then only the other is available here]
Option 2: Jeff Green (3) + BJ Mullens (1) = total (0)
Option 3: Keep Love = (0)
At the end of round three your salary cap value will range from 37 to 42
-------------------------
