Add Andre Blatche.
Blatche is about to sign a three-year contract to return to the Xinjiang Flying Tigers in the Chinese Basketball Association, a deal believed to be the richest in league history and “possibly in overseas basketball,” according to a report by asia-basket.com.

Can we please get an answer to why Holiday still has not been placed on the IR?
If you bc don't out him on there soon for the time he has already misses..I'm sure Bucks won't be happy to lose him in the playoffs. Right now it's looking as the only way to be fair.

Holiday's injury has been rolling for several months, obviously he should be on the injury list but it's difficult when his ETA is this week, according to CBS Sports. I suppose I could place him on the list, since he's been out for so long, and when he returns he will obviously return here at D5 also. Maybe I need to make that a specific rule regarding injuries, it does seem to make sense.

I suppose I could place him on the list, since he's been out for so long, and when he returns he will obviously return here at D5 also. Maybe I need to make that a specific rule regarding injuries, it does seem to make sense. ASAP please Honestly Bucks got off easy with Holidays injury. Its not fair to the gms that lost their players. I'm sure Philly would have loved to had Bosh longer. Holiday is on the IR but he should at least go on the Injured list at least a month which is only half his time. That's more than fair to Milwaukee. Still not fair to other gms but I'm sure other East gms would be happier about a month. Our league does not run equal to the actual NBA so it would be fine to put players on the IR their full or a determined amount of time. Why should Holiday return to our league when he starts playing IRL. He has been out way longer than the minimum. Its fair to hold him out. Can We please get other gms thoughts on this? We will by next season hopefully have a better handle abd system on injured players. We have done ok but there are still a few players that was missed. We should not do injuries at all If we can not at least be more consistent. Holiday on the IR for the full time would place Bucks a little further out of the playoffs in the East. A lower seed. Thoughts...?

Thoughts...? 100% Agree. I said this a couple times in the earlier thread... we are 6 weeks behind the real NBA. Why can't we just have them miss the same 6 week chunks they do IRL? It's just as simple. you'd have a "injury dates" thread. And a list of all the guys that missed 6+ weeks and what weeks they were. I feel like it'd be even easier than the current system on Ian, AND it would be more accurate AND it would be more fair.

I find it a little bizarre that you guys are so up in arms about Holiday being out, yet are only just now speaking about it. Why didn't you mention this earlier if you knew?
I follow the Bucks and the Bucks only. I could care less about the Pelicans in real life. I didn't even know Holiday has been out for so long. Once Ian told me to update my depth chart, I did without hesitation. Really wasn't a big deal.
If Ian decides to keep out Holiday longer even if he's back, then so be it. If that's what everybody thinks is fair, then so be it. But the amount of hostility in some of your posts as if this was some coupe to keep my team playing well is a little disturbing. I think some of you need to not take this league so seriously sometimes and just enjoy it. I get there are times when it gets competitive and we all want to win, but let's be honest with ourselves here. This league isn't the be all end all. Life is so much more important. We even see with Vlade leaving the league to take care of himself. I applaud him for that. Health is more important.
So guys, just take it easy and not get so worked up.
We also need to remember there is a human component to this league. Ian has a lot on his plate. If you see something, speak up about it. We all have to work together to keep the league running smoothly. We can't all rely on Ian to do everything.

I find it odd you want to argue this with those lies. It has been mentioned before. Just not over and over again. When we post about a player here we have done our job. The player should then be adjusted. Trying to do this fair and by system is very important. But if something is missed so huge to the status of the league it needs to be adjusted fairly. And put into the game asap to make things fair. Not sure why the hold up but since it was found t be such a long injury and not adjusted into our league..it needs to be. Just like any other player we find to be in such a situation. If its just a league and not such a big deal...just be ok with it and don't stress. It's for fun u say. Even if he's held out a month your lucky as shit. He's been out much much longer. To not put him out even half his real time would be a cheat to the league and other GMs. Fair is fair.

You have to be careful with indefinitely though. Jrue holiday was out indefinitely, but now its 3-4 weeks. We should probably not count Indefinitely's as >6 weeks. Especially with aldrige. Isn't there a possibility it's only a ligament strain? If it s a tear, he's going to be out for months, but if its just a sprain he'll be back in a few weeks, but right now it is "indefinitely". More holiday.... If the rule is 6 weeks...anything over 6 weeks has to be..or should be put into effect...

When Paul George comes back...you think his GM isn't waiting for his return and expecting him to be added.
Just like injuries...they need updates..fairness to us all.

I think that GMs interested in helping could notify injured players with the amount of games missed. Then, Ian would sideline those players for that amount of games.
Maybe, the injury list should have a moderator other than Ian to keep an updated 1st post with the games to be missed (amount of games missed in real life - amount of games missed in the sim).
Also, that GM would alert Ian when players are back.
I believe that is the ideal solution.

But those that must be updated must be updated because even though this is the first test year with injuries...it needs to be fair and honest. This year there have been more than the normal amt of injuries..but even those missed and at the guideline need to be upheld! This season....

I agree that our delay in relation to the NBA would allow us to take these ideas into consideration. I would definitely be okay with placing a player on IR if his initial diagnosis specifies a time of 6+ weeks; and, if a player ends up missing more than 4 weeks, adjust the rosters accordingly. This could be done easily by making a thread that specifies how long a player was out and what his return date would be in our sim league.

Not how long but for how many games. In this case, putting information in terms of time adds unnecessary complications.

Not how long but for how many games. In this case, putting information in terms of time adds unnecessary complications. In the situation of Holiday, when not knowing the exact time frame or games..we need to put him on the IR the amount of total games missed. From this game to this game (his actual return). How ever many games he missed. Because if He or any player was in recovery during the all star break..they get free rest time. But if a player is considered out and then comes back for one game and reinjures or is not ready and sits out another month we just minus the games missed. Who would take the role to control this if Ian would allow it? There would still need to be a mandate and rules in place. But as for this season...players need adjusted fairly to the league..not the GM! Holiday deserves more than a week or two on IR!

Since, we are weeks away from the nba schedule it is easier to go by games missed. Who would take the role to control this if Ian would allow it? Why not you?, You are already in the subject. You would need to do the following: 1) Create a new thread that you can moderate. 2) Check reports on games that have been played in real life. 3) Update the 1st post of the thread with new injuries (+1 game missed for the respective players). 4) Check D5 box scores and update your post accordingly. 5) Send a report to Ian with new injured players and players that healed (missed games in real life - missed games in the sim = 0). 6) Repeat the cycle from point 2.

I would love to be that person. I am on a lot as of lately, but I'm a single dad of two boys, with lots about to be going on. With them but honestly more with myself. I would not ask of anyone to promise to take an important position when they won't be able to 100%. I have had time in the past to be part of things, but at this time I cannot. This is why I decided to move my team in the direction I am. I want to put my players in the best position I can to win not only now but for the next several years. Usually I'm win it now mode...but reality tells me I've got to put my team and players and life in a forward position and a think about the future mindset...Not just a wake up..I think I can win the league and worry about everything else mindset. But thanks for offering. We need someone who has the time or can make the time without messing up the league or the GMs real life situation.

Maybe, You can do it with someone else. Also, there is no need to do a daily check of injured players. Since, we are more than week behind nba schedule a weekly report would be more than enough.
Maybe, 1 member could check for injured players once per week and the other would update the thread daily based on the sim and alert Ian when there are players in/out of the list.

JR, why does everything have to be so aggressive and pissed off when you talk? You sound like you have a serious anger issue. As far as doing my job, I'd say I'm doing a pretty damn good job of it since I've joined this league. I knew Holiday had injuries for a bit and was out for a few games, but didn't know the extent of the injury. I don't have the time each day to follow my players and check out what they're doing. Maybe you do because your life has less going on or you just care way too much about the league. I already said, whatever everyone else thinks is fair and what Ian decides is fine. I wasn't even arguing that. My only point was that Ian is one person and if someone see's an injury that nobody else seems to have spotted, then speak up.
