ok so you don't know what a team option is or what a restricted FA is, thanks for the contribution

The Ghost of Lenny Kirk · « **Reply #1111 on:** September 08, 2013, 04:43:24 AM »

Edit: alright I'm mixing this all up.

1.) they're going to use their team option and extend kyries contract

2.) Kyrie then either accepts the qualifying offer which extends his contract one more year and makes him a full on unrestricted FA the year after or he doesn't and he enters restricted FA the next year and finds some weird way of making the trade work because the lakers are loaded and hates tanking and wants to play with a competitive team.

3.) he leaves the cavs and finally joins the lakers.

4.) this is just a rumor and it doesn't actually happen because no ones ever rejected a team offer out of RFA but that doesn't make it any less fun to play devils advocate.

The cavs will extend his contract 4-5 more years. It's not a one and done thing.

Is it possible to change the name of my team from the last league? I could really use a better name.

edit: or is it that you automatically pick a new name when you get a new invitation?

bentmode · « **Reply #1117 on:** October 08, 2013, 01:27:21 PM »

You'll be assigned to a team that's already named but you can edit all that stuff pretty easily

Til the death of me! I know yall see D-Rose out here killing it! he caught a lot of hate for sitting out the season but you can tell that he's definitely got confidence in his knee and isnt timid about taking contact. dude went straight into roy hibberts chest down in the paint in that indiana game without even thinking about it

Fongstarr. · « **Reply #1120 on:** October 08, 2013, 04:28:13 PM »

I am not a huge Bulls fan but I like D Rose and am visiting Chicago later this month to check out a pre season game.

Yeah in this day and age an ACL tear isn't a death sentence like it once was. The big thing through the first two preseason games is the fact that you can clearly see Derrick has his explosiveness/quickness back and like you were saying there isn't any hesitation. I can't wait until we see our first Rose & Butler fastbreak/alley oop.

Also, here is Zach Lowe's piece on the NBA tier lists

The only thing on the line is ur pride.

Also to let the dudes who played previous years know this years format is slightly different: head to head each category; also considering switching to an auction draft instead of a snake.

L.S · « **Reply #1125 on:** October 16, 2013, 01:17:09 PM »

How does an auction draft work? I've only been part of leagues that have had a snake draft.

bentmode · « **Reply #1126 on:** October 16, 2013, 03:06:30 PM »

Everyone gets a salary cap of $200 and takes turns picking players for people to bid on. The player with the highest bid takes the player and this continues until rosters are full. It's chess compared to checkers. You have to be tactical about how you spend your money. It takes a bit longer but you could also have you roster constructed quickly.

Why exactly did the Kings move to Seattle get shot down?

Still a damn shame they moved the Sonics to OK City.

WTF happened to the draft? It's 4:30 am here and i woke up for it and all the sudden it hasn't been scheduled yet?

bentmode · « **Reply #1130 on:** October 23, 2013, 05:41:16 AM »

Sorry man it is scheduled but the league isn't full yet so either I trim it down to what we have now or we can wait until there's at least 8 people and its somewhat competitive. I've been sick and dealing with concussion issues and forgot to update everyone.

Man I'm fucking stoked on the season opener tomorrow! Derrick Rose & a 100% healthy Bulls team will be looking to make a VERY big statement against Miami. The season as a whole is gonna be amazing tho, lots of interesting things going on all around the league.

Same here, I'm kind of worried about Noah's health for the end of the season with Coach Thibs.

I see, I don't do those fantasy games. Seems fun but not really interested.

But I am as well excited to see D. Rose finally comeback.

If no one else wants to join, and I reached out to a couple of people who posted in this thread about wanting to play, then we draft this weekend.
