Nope but now that you mentioned him he will be responding here in a timely fashion about his internet being out and/or slow.

The list of two-way contracts was just too much to include. I was truly hoping to avoid this topic as they are also considered RFA’s which causes a whole extra level of complications. You are the Mod but I am not going to be the agent for 2-way players. It’s honestly too much work as is. I guess 2-way guys could fall into the bidding war & then it gives the original team match rights? Idk bro. Still would be a hot mess

Is there going to be a free-for-all for the leftover FAs when all the tiers are done? If so, I'd suggest just dropping all the two-way players in that pool and then that way you don't have to do anything else. Most of them aren't getting more than minimum contracts anyway.

I don't think the Sixers can do this. They already used the Taxpayer MLE to sign Rudy Gay, you can't use both the Taxpayer MLE and the BAE. Or at least you can't IRL.

For the sake of the game I was allowing everyone to use the BAE. More fun, more movement

Free Agency Update:

Maybe this wasn’t clear before & I apologize.
Everyone is allotted to use the BAE(5M) in this game. Lighter restrictions makes for more fun... trying to get these playas paid!!

Jon emailed me this morning that he can’t continue because of his interest situation. I email Scott to take over Indy but haven’t heard from him yet. If Scott can’t take them, then I will get Indy up & going later today.

Josh Richardson is still available to trade. I want to get him sent to a contender!

I probably would want a center in return

Let me know when I’m good to delete the old Pacers

We will start FA bidding tomorrow at 10am central time. Feel free to send any offers until then.

If you want a discount vet you need to sell the player on being a contender, player or coach relationships, playing time, etc... in real life why would this player come to your team for the vet min? “Ring chaser” alone isn’t a great sell. Especially when your core hasn’t won a ring recently ;-)

The only other discount deals had convincing offers, outside of money.

INDIANA reopened for business - Scott.ins@aol.com

PG - M. Brogdon / TJ McConnell / T. Burke
SG - C. LaVert / J. Lamb / K. Martin
SF - R. Hood / Jake Layman
PF - K. Porzingis / W. Hernangomez / E. Paschall
Cy - D. Sabonis / J. Bitadze / Harry Giles Jr

Looking at Brogdon - Lavert and Sabonis as my core (duh) and willing to make deals on all others. (even core guys with the right offers).

Thanks for helping out Scott. FYI, I.Thomas, Hernangomez, & Ellington are all Free Agents. Justin Holiday & Aaron Holiday were both traded away. You better comb through the trade thread to update

Ness- Markieff should only be a 2-year deal. I did make a mistake with that. Please adjust accordingly

Are we allowed to change coaches? And if so, could we hire current assistant coaches?
