[PacersGM]

finally the cpu made a move
glad to have another big on board. he might even start for my team.

[MagicGM]

glad to have my boys back

[NetsGM]

Ugh. I never seem to sign anyone I really want. Someone should tell these guys that Jersey is a nice place, full of nice people....kinda.

[CelticsGM]

swampland. nuff siad ...

So Isaiah hooks up with me again. Glad to have a 5'6" PG with C+ handles back on my roster.

[PacersGM]

sorry guys michael schader is of course still available. i have troubles to take o´neill out of FA, maybe i removed schader in that process.

[NetsGM]

Well, I used up my MLE and LLE.  I'm fairly happy with who I got.  Sure, neither of them are going to be starters, or even close.  And they're both practically retired.  But if I can get one year of serviceable backup play, that's all I'm really looking for.  Telfair did put up nearly 10/6.5 last year, so hopefully in a 20-25 mpg role he can be productive.

Semjonova was mainly just to get a nice big expiring in case a deal came along that I needed it.  Last year I didn't have anything to match salary with, and that actually killed a deal or two I was working on.

[BlazersGM]

Beautiful, just beautiful. I cant use this damn money again, if i knew this before i would keep Macy.

And now O'Neill is gone, and my only two wishes i wanted to re-sign after i spend my money Keogan and Telf went for
ridicolous minimum and MLE offers.

Fuck it all.

Signed no one, lost Telf and Keogan for whom i didnt want to offer before Day 3 cause i wanted to spend my money on
others 1st.

And they both went to Pistons and Pacers !! Former and current commish....gRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. Youve done that
on purpose, just kiddin'

[WizardsGM]

"If you knew this before" ? Dude, it was never going to be a good FA class, not sure where you were looking.

[BlazersGM]

Its never good, weird.

[SpursGM-old]

Its never good, weird.

Sort of like the NBA.  Look at this past year...Rashard Lewis as the big name FA.  Very few stars switch teams through FA.

[CelticsGM]

here. other leagues hardly ever have quality problems in FA.

guess we're all to conservative here ...

[BlazersGM]

Exactly, its only league where we just have 1-3 guys worth MAX last few seasons and 99 % always sign with their last team, unlike other leagues where some 3-7 good guys enter, and half of them change teams.

[NetsGM]

here. other leagues hardly ever have quality problems in FA.

Not all of us. I had a winning % of .850+, and I've shuffled quite a bit and made a better team imo.
And that 'big bucks for a role player' comment on Wooten will motivate me for many seasons to come, Tom. If you had a 24 year old, 6'11, 280lb'er with career shooting #'s in the .440/.710 range who puts up 3bpg, I doubt you'd be calling him a 'role player'. More like 'untouchable'.
