Yup, once I realized the going rate for some of those players, I kindly backed away :)

I had to max out Teague and Gallinari in order to retain them. Definitely a massive overpay, but I needed to keep them in order to remain competitive so....

I bet 100 dollar that both will get a max deal in real life. We should get used to contracts like that. I mean, look at the mozgovs and noahs and dengs.

Also miles Plumlee gets 13 mil per year for 2 points per game lol

It's definitely realistic but at the same time an overpay. I myself couldn't come to terms with offering max deals to players who don't put me over the top.

I would bet they do not get a full 5 year max. Full 5 year maxes are still pretty rare because teams know they can offer more money without needing to do the full max because of the raises and the 5th year. I mean the Hawks wouldn't even give one to Horford last summer. It is great for the players to get what they can and looks like GMs are offering it here. Also for a game like this, I don't think people worry about that 5th year huge salary that can cripple some team's in real life if a player ages badly since it won't affect this game.

This isn't a complaint about Free Agency at all to be clear. Just saw contracts and got me thinking about if player's will get this money in real life next offseason. For the game, if GMs are offering, obviously players should sign.

Warriors are updated and ready to start making moves. Open to anything including trading any of the big 4 but don't come with an offer focused around draft picks. Not looking to rebuild, I want quality rotation pieces.

The Kings are looking to make some deals. I've gotten offers for Cousins but nothing I'm ready to pull the trigger on. If you have something in mind, let me know.

Utah has about 28 first round picks over the next 4 years and is looking to acquire a star PG, SG, SF.

Willing to move Oladipo in the right deal as well, but going to build around Zinger and Gobert.

Yeah for Shabazz, I am thinking some where are around 12 million for him. More than that and I would be a little scared off. But, that is just me and my hoping that he gives Minny a nice discount.

He will get around sixteen million a year; I can almost guarantee that.

Vipers looking to trade Bayless or Augustine and Faried.
Pacers have some big expiring deals for next year and a lot of cap space.
