Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: NetsGM on September 01, 2005, 10:02:16 PM who's the big winner?
Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: RaptorsGM on September 01, 2005, 10:07:28 PM Toronto Raptors - Jackson Finley (MLE), Aaron Mckie (LLE)
;) Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: SunsGM on September 01, 2005, 10:12:53 PM My vote goes to the Cavs. Vince is a big time scorer, and Chamberlain is a starting quality pg, even though he mak be a little crowded there now with Ward already there.
The Nets got probally the 3rd best player on the shelf, to go with their awesome startinglineup already there. the only reason i dident go with the Nets was the fact they dident get Battier yet but i'm sure he'll be back.(cause he always comes back) and the fact they got 3 very good bench guys is a plus too. Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: NetsGM on September 01, 2005, 10:13:00 PM I liked your signings. But Finley just won't have the impact vince will ;)
Unfortunately I didn't have as much cap room as Cavs (I offered Vince a contract for 6 years with max raises starting at 14.3 million, Cavs 15.3). Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: NetsGM on September 01, 2005, 10:14:01 PM Honestly, I gotta go clippers. They absolutely NEEDED to keep Gordon. That right there kept them at championship contention, otherwise they'd be struggling to make the playoffs.
Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: CavsGM on September 01, 2005, 10:29:18 PM Bods, any estimate time on when the FA will be run tomorrow?
Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: NetsGM on September 01, 2005, 10:32:10 PM Probably between 7-8 pm.
NOTE: this does not mean it won't be run before that and you don't need to get offers in until 7. I could very well run it right at 5 Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: CavsGM on September 01, 2005, 10:34:46 PM Thanks
Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: NetsGM on September 01, 2005, 10:35:27 PM Just had to specify, since it seems people expect that cushion nowadays.
Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: GoldenStateGM on September 01, 2005, 10:45:12 PM I have to say Clippers as well...
Gordon returning is huge. Why do I have to be in the toughest Division? sigh... Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: HornetsGM on September 02, 2005, 01:08:35 AM I voted Cavs. Gordon was the best player out there, but it was a no brainer to offer him the max. IDK though, it was a close call.
Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: RaptorsGM on September 02, 2005, 08:36:31 AM I'll go Cavs too, although I do like what the Nets have done.
Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: PacersGM on September 02, 2005, 08:48:24 AM i will go with clippers. reason is vince is a nice player but he is too old for such a long contract on a rebuilding team.
Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: SpursGM-old on September 02, 2005, 08:56:56 AM I'd say it is very close between the Clips & Cavs. But I gave my vote to the Cavs....Clips did what was expected. If he would have lost Gordon then we could have voted for the biggest loser and he would have won in a landslide. I have to disqualify the Nets since their bounty was the result of a program glitch.
(And I fully understand that Bods did not intentionally do this. In no way is this to be construed as any criticism of the way he has handled the league.) Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: NetsGM on September 02, 2005, 09:28:14 AM BTW, other teams have benefited from the glitch in the past.
Including the Bucks, this year. had slightly over 1.2 million in cap space. Signed 2 players to 1.2 million $ deals, still haven't used LLE. Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: SpursGM-old on September 02, 2005, 09:43:01 AM Well, I would disqualify them also. :P
Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: CavsGM on September 02, 2005, 08:58:02 PM At least I can brag about doing well in FA. :)
Not finished, either... 8) Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: CavsGM on September 02, 2005, 09:00:15 PM Bods, can you make it until the sim for when sign-and trades can be done? 24 hours are up.. :cry:
Title: Free Agent Day 1 Big Winners Post by: NetsGM on September 02, 2005, 09:01:43 PM if you post it soon i might feel generous.
i have no guarantees when i'm running it though. |
