Jared Montini - surely he's worth more as a player? Those 3 years will not disappear from your salaries if he retires and you've released him.

That's pretty much cutting him. Not my fault there's no buyouts in this league. He would ask for a buyout if he was on one of the worst teams in NBA history like my team |

Why not just use the two 2nds you got to move him to another team? It must be better than releasing him

I'm new here and admittedly don't know how things are always done here, but a tanking team buying him out/releasing him is exactly what would happen in real life if he was traded to a tanking team. The Cavs basically just released him and let him go to the Heat. The second round pick they got in return is so protected that they will most likely never even see that pick.
I understand the argument that it's hurting competitiveness in the sim, but to say that nothing like this would happen in real life doesn't hold water considering he was released/given away twice in the last six months in real life.

At what point does releasing a player become illegal? This is really bad for your team Jared Montini. Detroit cut mozgov and Noah to help there tank, why can't I cut wade and let him go to a contending team Fair enough by that reasoning. I will process this release of Wade. I wonder how a buyout system would work. Even if we figured out a "realistic" percentage value of a player's current remaining contract, under what conditions do we agree that a player would seek a buyout when there's no way to know a player's personal preference in a sim league situation, and maybe it shouldn't even be allowed in a sim league system. Like sure we know Wade wanted to opt out of Cleveland. Does that mean he should be content to opt out of his team here at D5? Maybe in another location he would not want a buyout. Should GMs trade for players like Wade thinking they can achieve a buyout? A large expiring contract is an extremely valuable thing right now at D5. |

Detroit cut mozgov and Noah to help there tank, why can't I cut wade and let him go to a contending team Mozgov and Noah are not comparable. Wade has significantly more value than those 2. Not surprised you used them as examples though |
