Thought Rudy was a strong contender for a comically low price. Guess too many people needed centers for him to slip through the cracks

Deadbeat Dad: Jun 3, 2005; the trad games jinho

I almost voided Orlando's bid because he only has $2 to fill $3 spots but I looked and didn't specify any rule about that. Also there's no guarantee that anybody who goes into the last day with roster slots open will win all of their bids to fill their roster, so it can't be a rule. Just means that for people with roster slots and no money left, they will have to fill it with free agent guys - where there will be some rules I haven't announced yet.

Chronicles has cut Jay Scrubb ($2). He will re-enter the FA pool at the end of the game and count against the Nets cap.

That's it for D16! Only a few days left and a lot more money still out there than previous games.. should be interesting.

My favorite built teams so far (like, the ones I'd want to watch, not necessarily the best although some of them very well could be)

- Brogdon/George/Franz/Markkanen/Okongwu

- Trae/Garland/Porter Jr./Mobley/Adams

- Fox/Green/Herb/Barnes/Allen

- Fultz/OG/Keldon/Chet/Porzingis

I'm taking the exclusion of the Ant/Zach dunk team personally

Also drat, almost had PG

Deadbeat Dad: Jun 3, 2005; the trad games jinho

Also, I plan on ending bids on D18 this year - so two days left! I'm making today (D17) and D18's lists slightly longer just to finish it.

Anybody unseen will go into the FA pool, but hopefully/should be mostly guys that would not get bidded on anyway.

Red Rox: Aug 24, 2004; Motel Midnight off the hook

haha you loving weirdos!

I also have no idea what's going on, but I'm having fun. I love my team - unlike the real Clippers they are young and (more importantly) cool.

C - Jarrett Allen
PF - Scottie Barnes
SF - Herb Jones
SG - Jalen Green
PG - De'Aaron Fox

With Naz Reid and KJ Martin off the bench, with backup from Trey Lyles and Amir Coffey. Just need some more help at PG.

gently caress the sim.

ALSO, IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ :siren:

As we're winding up the last few days, what will happen afterwards will be the usual but I have to remind y'all!

1. Free agency day happens, then teams will make their hype posts about their teams, outline their vision, lineups, a story if you have one, whatever fun you want to have with it!

2. After we get most of those submissions, the Goon Vote will start, and I will instruct everybody what voting I am looking for to send me via PM/email/etc.

3. Once the BYOGM Goon Winner gets announced from th ose votes, I will run the sim and sim one season and there will also be a BYOGM Sim Winner.

Then we bid our farewells until 2024 BYOGM~

Longer lists with more money to spend than usual, but still a fair number of cash-poor teams...we're going to get some insane high/low price disparities over the next two days

# ? Aug 11, 2023 01:32

Red Rox: Aug 24, 2004; Motel Midnight off the hook

poo poo yeah two days left and quite a few teams sitting on lots of cash.

- Suns with $578
- Pacers with $443
- Jaz with $391
- Bulls with $319
- 76ers with $288

I'm making some popcorn!

vv ah ok I thought it was updated
