Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: MavsGM on January 15, 2005, 07:09:03 PM Ok, i heard this from other commish. He said that you can sign a MLE player to a long term deal if that player was on your team last year. Here is the info
"IF A PLAYER WAS ON YOUR TEAM LAST YEAR AND HE WAS ON THE MLE YOU MAY OFFER UP TO A 6 YEAR DEAL WITH THESE MAXIMUM SALARIES FOR EACH YEAR 1st yr 5,400,000 2nd yr 5,940,000 3rd yr 6,400,000 4th yr 7,020,000 5th yr 7,560,000 6th yr 8,100,000 THIS ONLY APPLIES TO GUYS WHO WERE ON YOUR MLE LAST YEAR. SO IF YOU RESIGN THEM THEY ARE TRADEABLE." I'm not sure about this and i don't have the game, can Twan or someone who have the game check this out, cuz it would change the whole FA thing with this rule.

Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: Anonymous on January 15, 2005, 11:07:39 PM that aint true
Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: NetsGM on January 15, 2005, 11:18:59 PM I ran a test year. Signed a crap player with the MLE, ran a year, went to free agency, went to this player, clicked max bid, and the same contract that you posted came up.
It is true. You can offer them 6 year deals starting at 5.4 million with 10% raises. Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: Anonymous on January 16, 2005, 04:48:14 AM Can you offer less than 6 years but with 10% increase?
Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: Anonymous on January 16, 2005, 07:40:59 AM yes... I was wondering whether we could apply these rules...
Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: NetsGM on January 16, 2005, 09:08:09 AM i'll check. give me a bit (about to run out, should be back in an hour, then I'll check)
Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: NetsGM on January 16, 2005, 11:27:49 AM Yes, you can offer less than 6 years.
So you can offer: A starting salary of up to: 5.4 million (but can offer anything below that as well) Maximum Raises of: Up to 10% (anything below that as well) Maximum # of years: Up to 6 years (can offer anything below that) Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: RaptorsGM on January 16, 2005, 02:41:27 PM That's awesome. I had no idea.
Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: HornetsGM on January 16, 2005, 04:54:59 PM Yeah, I asked about this in the very beginning of the league and JEM said he couldn't do it... I hope we implement the rule.
I think that if you do sign one of these deals it means that you can't use your MLE for as long as you have them signed for... Not positive about that though. Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: NetsGM on January 16, 2005, 05:01:32 PM Testing it right now.
Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: NetsGM on January 16, 2005, 05:34:28 PM Not true.
Season one I signed Corie Blount for the MLE. Simmed the season. Offered Corie the 6 year deal listed above (starting at 5.4 million, 10% raises). He accepted. Then offered Angel Dampier the MLE. Accepted. Simmed the entire season. Offered Angel Dampier the 6 year deal, he accepted. Signed Richie Frahm to the MLE. Simmed the year, signed Richie Frahm to the 6 year deal. Signed Dajuan Wagner to the MLE. Simmed the year, signed someone else to the mle. What does it mean? Not only can you offer a guy whom you had for the MLE that up to 6 year contract listed above, but you can use your MLE for ALL THE YEARS OF THAT CONTRACT AND STILL USE THE MLE THAT YEAR. Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: RaptorsGM on January 16, 2005, 09:19:04 PM Well, this just changes the whole outlook of SSBA
Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: Anonymous on January 17, 2005, 01:43:15 AM so does this mean I could sign someone to at least 5.4 starting salary if i'm over thge cap?
Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: Anonymous on January 17, 2005, 01:47:24 AM also, are we implying this this free agency?
Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: NetsGM on January 17, 2005, 08:34:12 AM You can only offer that contract to people whom you had signed (on your team) to the MLE the prior year.
For example, the Bulls had Etan Thomas signed for the MLE last year. This year in free agency he can offer the deal listed in prior posts. If the guy wasn't signed to your team before, you have to use the MLE. Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: RaptorsGM on January 17, 2005, 08:25:56 PM Too bad I had Ratliff. I ain't offering a 34 year old a 6 year contract...or am I?
Title: Is this True?<-----IMPORTANT Post by: NetsGM on January 17, 2005, 08:27:42 PM doesn't have to be 6 years. You can offer him a 2 year deal starting at 5.4 million.
