ok cool, i hope its 2k10 because i know its rating system.
 
We need a sticky with the rosters that gets updated as we draft.
 
I'll do it tonight after I get done with coaching.

I won't be up late like usual tonight, so if it doesn't show up, just wait another day.

I have an important interview tomorrow in the early morning so...eek!

there will be financial restrictions, im not sure a hard cap is the way to go though.

most likely a soft cap with penalties for going over, such as loss of draft picks and/or MLE

Was thinking about this today. I'd propose we use the same basic rules as the NBA but make the luxury tax level a hard cap.

That is, you can't re-sign your own FAs if you go over the luxury tax...

I'd make an exception to this rule for teams that made the conference finals. As a reward for being successful, you get to keep your team together.

It also sort of reflects real life. Most teams won't go over the tax unless they think they're really getting somewhere with it.

That's not a perfect system, but it's the closest I can figure to real life.

I like this but how long is the exception for teams to be over the luxury tax? Say a team makes it one year and resigns all their guys, then they don't make it the next year. Is there going to be a 2 or 3 years period which we allow them to say over this "hard" cap?
 
fines for people that dont pick players :)

I guess whatever folks want, but I'd say we only go for a year. But given that we haven't completed a year, I guess it's a little pre-mature to worry about it. :)
 
With the actual CBA rules, guys who are over the cap can't sign FAs and trades have to be within 25%, etc. That seems like a tough penalty to begin with. If our players become FAs when their contracts run out, in sync with real life, then we have that to consider when dealing with/for players.
 
its approx a 5 day turnaround between my picks (so far) are we doing 12rnds of this?

I picture us still using exceptions.

So if you're over the salary cap, then you can
1. Re-sign your own players.
2. Use your MLE, the BAE, sign your draft picks, and sign guys for the minimum.
3. I propose we use the luxury tax level as a hard(er) cap. Unless you were in the final four the previous year, you cannot exceed the luxury tax like to re-sign your own FAs and you cannot use your MLE or BAE. I'd still let folks sign their draft picks and any minimum salary guys they need to flesh out their rosters.

At least to me, that seems to create a good compromise that will encourage people to pay attention to finances but make things completely impossible to deal with or unrealistic.
