I’m not sure what you mean. In the NBA the incumbent team can get outbid for their free agent too.

• Jeremy Lin to the Rockets (Knicks outbid for him)
• Jalen Brunson to the Knicks (Mavs outbid for him)

the mavs could have matched and the knicks for lin if they wanted to right? or increased the offer...

Ok, I see what you mean. I think the difference is in the NBA they have a luxury tax. In BaF we don’t. So that’s why the hard cap is needed.

We have 15 spots...I think its more than reasonable for us to have "one" player that we can keep...Teams that can draft should be able to retain atleast one of their players...give said team a chance to have a player have their entire career with one team...

In NBA reality, its nine years for drafted players. Then they are a UFA. The other reality is there are different types of players and personalities.

Players like LeBron, Harden, Durant etc that move or are moved ( threaten to leave as a UFA ) and players like Curry, Joker, and Giannis etc that stand pat entering their UFA season.

I feel your pain man. That is exactly how I felt about Detroit's young team last season.

Now I just some of y'all to start beating Dallas they getting too close for comfort lol. I wanted them in the 4 seed, I need MPH to have to play both of us to make it out the West.

A great win against the Bulls. Their defense was tough holding my Pacers to 43.0 FG% and 28.0 3PT%. This came down to my big three; who all shot pretty well and had over 20 points each. Old man Brook, with 13 boards and 6 blocks, did a great job against old man Adams.

Good game HS/Chicago

Sorry about that bruv. Trade me Hali and I'll rest my guys next year whenever we play. :lol:

Currently on a 62-20 pace. I'd love to end up with under 20 losses. IIRC my last dozen or so games once I get Harrell back I have it pretty easy up until Dallas the last game of the year. Hopefully I've already locked up the 2nd best record in the league by then and I can sit my guys instead of needing the Dallas game for HCA.

I still want Giannis to miss JUST enough games to get that 4th seed lol. Making MPH beat Deeeeeez, me, and Boston/Indy/Charlotte on the way to a ring seems like the best idea for a hard path.

I'm not sleeping on GS either. If anything NE will make playoff games ugly with his defense.

Me when Melo calls his squad elite:

KP had his revenge game against me, but once again the starters outplay the opposing team. Hopefully the final weeks we can fix that with Warren and Hardaway moving to the bench as Bridges will be back soon. Until then it's just about JJJ stunting on some players.
