Cross-Court Dynasty: Archives / Re: Off-Season Discussions« on: February 19, 2023, 06:48:54 AM »It hasn?t even been a full year and we?re already talking about changing it again? Yes there are a couple teams over but it?s from previous years trades as well. The intent was to make this league even and competitive not to try and tear down one team. You?ve got to give it more than 8 months for things to level out. A few thoughts from this. 1) Orlando wasn't over the $110m cap until after the rule change. They are now at $147.3m in total players real salary plus free cap space. So the new rule doesn't work as intended. San Antonio was barely over for this year when the season started and is now at $153.5m. So if you are an active enough trader you can just keep going over astronomically each season. I didn't have Beal or Siakam that have $34m paid between them until after the 25% rule was implemented. The rule change obviously isn't working so I would rather change it now than wait another year or two for things to get worse. 2) I enjoy the league for the most part, but to be honest I don't want to have to make trades each season where others are paying for a large portion of my team in order to be competitive. Currently I have $34m paid between Beal and Siakam. That's not realistic and it isn't fun for me. Alternatively I enjoy rebuilding teams, but that's a challenge because of the 25% rule and I'm beginning to tire of rebuilding because in order to be truly competitive they have to have large cash exchanges as well eventually. 3) This isn't to single out one team. I'll single out my own team as well. The teams with the most negative cash exchanges obtained this season, where others pay for their players are #1, #2, and #4 in the standings. Interpaga can be offended by me insinuating that he is #1 in part because of cash exchanges and pretend there isn't a correlation between having a large part of your team paid for by others and being high in the standings. I'll be honest and admit it's a large part of why I'm at #2. It does take away from the accomplishment of winning for interpaga and myself even if it's within the rules. I'll be honest and admit that. Interpaga and everyone else can obviously see it's a large reason San Antonio is #1, I'm #2, and Orlando is #4. I want a more competitive landscape even if it hinders my team because it's what's best for the league. I've always pushed for what's best for the league in all my leagues, even if it hurts my own team. 4) I will say that San Antonio, New York Knicks (myself), and Orlando Magic are excellent managers, which is why we used the cash exchanges to the extreme that got us into #1, #2, and #4 in the standings. I'm just tired of there being one overruling strategy in this league where rebuilding teams fund championships through cash exchanges and I want to compete on a more competitive landscape because as the league is now with the cash exchanges isn't fun for me. It isn't all about winning for me so I don't like knowing I'm crushing other teams and sitting #2 in the standings because $34m of my players salaries are paid for by other teams. To be honest the cash exchange issue and super teams takes away from my enjoyment of this league as it's completely out of control, unrealistic, and creates an uncompetitive environment. The 25% rule simply made things worse for rebuilding teams and did nothing to fix the actual issue. 5
