I edited my list for you bud

I plan to stick to the schedule (will be posted later today) ladies and gents, so please make yourself familiar with it and follow directions. Thanks.

I will run approvals as long as I'm not chasing down people to approve my deals every time.
And I am okay with you running FA as long as its fair, where the player goes to the most deserving team.

And like BDE mentioned, trading back to back years picks should be a no go.

We set dates for when your rosters have to be legal and during that time you can't make more than a 3 for 1 trade. No trades for nothing. No trading back to back picks. I am sure there are more things. I will play either way just think it would be different and more challenging.

I would like the game to be as realistic as possible as well.

During the regular season a team cannot drop below 12 players after a trade or go above 15 players after a trade. And at NO POINT can any team EVER go over the 18 player limit. We will not allow those ridiculous 20-25+ player rosters in this game. Teams must make their signings for trade purposes BEFORE a trade, not afterwords. We're not doing those shortcuts in this game.
Also.. I notice certain gm's like to sign or trade for a player and have them on their depth chart, but not in their salaries. This will not be allowed this game. Your trade will not be approved if you try this.
And lastly, I plan to be strict on the 48 hour roster update rule. If you violate this, you're being replaced after the 1st offense, even if something comes up, that shouldn't have to effect the other gm's from doing trades. I will take over that team and seek out a new gm. Any trades made from the "NBA owned" team will be posted and voted on my the other gm's in the game. The majority vote will determine the outcome of the trade.
Anyone in opposition of that?

During season, every roster has to have 13 players not 12 according to the CBA. Basically the rule is that you can't receive more than 2 more players than you give out. So if you want to trade 4 guys, you need to take back 2.
I also think we should be strict with the no re-signing someone that you traded rule. For example, if I trade Anderson Varejao as part of a deal and the other team waives him, I can't then sign him again.

I'm not sure what if anything we can do though. I'm all for making this game realistic but we also play this to have fun and make trades. I know having the Kings last game was an absolute nightmare and not a whole lot of fun.

I'd say maybe you give the Nets to someone with 2 teams and give them first choice of the remaining teams so they at least get one team that they think they'll be able to make moves. Kings at least have Boogie but they are similar spot.
