Every time Smash post Gus from breaking bad it’s time to buckle up. Either something done happened, or it’s about to go down lol. I think this might be the most competitive year yet and July 4th could be full of surprises.

I am willing to hear offers for Jaylen Brown but not actively looking to move him. Was an all-star in the sim and he's going to get a big offensive bump this year. Will only consider offers I'm blown away by. Even though I think there's only a year left on his contract but depending on if this is the last year or not, having his rights is still important and so I won't even reply back on crap offers.

Couple of quick things. First, the deadline for all teams to make their decisions on the contract status of their Exempt List players is tomorrow. As of now, there are 14 different teams that have players still in the first post on the front page of this thread who have not made decisions on at least one player. Basically half the league being inactive or indifferent is not a good sign. I've seen a lot of talk about the end of the league and I want to reiterate that that is not my intention. But again, if people are not invested in it, then maybe that says enough. The default for any team that does not send in a decision on EL players is to have their contracts frozen as is. If you are not sure what this means, please PM me.

Second, now is the time for teams to submit any rule changes that they would like to have the league consider putting into effect for next season. I am going to suggest we put an end to "future considerations" deals. With the turnover in the league this year, especially among long time trusted GM's, these deals present a potential unfair advantage or disadvantage for certain teams. Plus, they are incredibly hard to keep track of. I've already had to go through a ton of past PM's to get one sorted out from a team that changed GM's this year. I think it would be best moving forward to eliminate the idea of "future considerations" in all future trades. This change would not effect any trade that has already been done that had a FC in it.

If anyone else has a potential rule change that they would like to present, write up your proposal and PM it to me. I will take a look and present it to the league sometime in the next 10 days.

Lastly:

Top 10 franchises all time by regular season winning percentage:

1. Warriors--------224-104 .683
2. Bulls------------219-109 .668
3. Mavericks------217-111 .662
4. Trailblazers----216-112 .659
5. Hawks----------189-139 .576
5. Kings------------189-139 .576
7. Thunder--------186-142 .567
8. Bucks-----------185-143 .564
9. 76ers------------181-147 .552
10. Timberwolves--179-149 .546

My feelings on future considerations…

I agree also. Future considerations just complicate things especially with more team turnover.

I still don’t completely understand the exempt list but PHX has no interest in keeping any rights on Dotson or Ponds.

I agree with a future considerations tweak to make it easier for you + reducing unfair advantages.

To be fair with the activity/EL thing, the ping from mpharris helped since I forgot about that. I don't think it's a lack of being invested. Things usually spice up around FA/draft time, I know I get more active when there's just more things going on.. I predict a very active offseason once draft/FA stuff starts.
