Fast Break Basketball Free Agency Nightmare
I had 8 free agents (top 8 scorers) in my team. We just won the championship. I offered max contracts to all 5 starters and they all went to different teams. The 3 subs went somewhere else. I was left with nothing in the FA pool. I tried offering minimum contracts to veterans and got beat out. I did not want to spend all of the cap room on veterans. I lost a couple of rookie FA's too. My 2 draft picks busted big time. I was worse than an expansion team going 4-78.

Wow. I hope that sort of thing can't happen in the next version of the game. That's pretty darned unrealistic. |

Only one of the teams that grabbed of our starters made the playoffs the previous season. 38 million in cap room with only 5 players on the roster. The 2 rookies, 2 2nd year players, 1 10th man (negoiated before FA, the only one willing to do). The 10th man suddenly become our leader. I released the 2 draft picks because they dropped dramatically. They were useless even on our team. I had 1 fair player, 1 below average and 10 FA rookies for $332,817 eac. The FA rookies had C to F potential. I was rebuilding and got the number 4 pick (worst possible spot) in the lottery.

There has been plenty of speculation on this board that Brian is working on a new version of FBB.

Not speculation -- HR himself said he's making a new version.

I think the speculation is that HR seems to be ignoring his product.

A sad story, I just lost the best player I have seen. 4 years, 4 MVP's. We could not win the championship, got to the finals 2 times and lost them. We had the cap room and no other SF's on the roster and he signed with our rivals for 6 years and way less. I have not made the playoffs since in the dynasty. The year I lost him, I did not replace him so that I was shocked.

Maybe the players all think you're an asshole or something.
