Didn't we make it a rule that you couldn't trade for nothing?

Because the MLE is changed/being strictly enforced, I can't sign anyone to a non-minimum contract. And because you can't sign anyone 70 or over to a minimum contract, I am forced to do this shitty trade.
If we are going to enforce the MLE this way, I don't think there should be a restriction on signing 70 or over rated players to a minimum deal. They sign guys over a 70 to a minimum deal ALL THE TIME in the NBA

Actually I feel like maybe this rule should apply: - A trade must not require your team to sign or release more than two players.
Detroit needs to cut two, Houston needs to sign two...

Detroit needs to cut two, Houston needs to sign two... How? What the fuck? The rule says MORE than two. And specifies to each individual team.

And specifies to each individual team. lolwhat. The trade is valid, but with 12 men on your roster you need to sign 2 players if you’re trading away 2 players. But with 14 players on their roster, DET should only have to cut 1 player.

I only cut one player, for the record.

Yes but the rule says that a trade which requires you to sign more than two players is invalid. He is saying it applied when it had no business applying.

You proceeded to misinterpret what he was saying and still do even after James & I literally explained it, twice. And now for a third time.

Ian Noble, At what point would Charles have to sign the players for the trade to be processed? Because I'm reading the situation as : - Trade gets approved, held pending signing of two players - Charles has to sign two players for the trade to process (doesn't have the generated from the trade at this point) - Trade processes If so, then he only actually clears like 1.5m assuming he signs two minimum guys.

There's so much redundancy and fuckery going on with everything in this league

There's so much redundancy and fuckery going on with everything in this league I don't think you're getting the point here Charles. The basic rule that we're complying with here is roster size as Josh pointed out: Your team's roster must not exceed 15 players or dip below 12 players at any time during the regular season. This trade would take your team to 10 players as you're trading two for none. To make it a legal, (process-able?) trade, you have to sign two players so that even after this trade is processed, you never at any point sink below the 12 player minimum. You can't even offer with the amount you intend to because you don't have it yet at this point.

There's so much redundancy and fuckery going on with everything in this league No. You have space to sign two players. Two minimum contract players. Teams can always offer the minimum when they’re over the cap. All your angst seems to just stem from general confusion.

Despite my flaws, I am not a douche and do not want to gain a competitive advantage just because someone else misunderstood something.
