I don't know this seems just rather convenient to GMs who don't plan accordingly. I knew I didn't want to use the Clippers pick and I traded it off for a 2nd prior to the draft.

I wouldn't have gone into the hard cap the last two seasons if I could forfeit my pick.

I fail to see how it sucks for me. I think its a little bit of a cop out and I don't agree with it but thats just my opinion. It really has no impact on me personally. I could careless if you choose not to use your 1st round pick. I still think you should be forced to trade it. If I kept it I could have drafted a steal...And you guys would have bitched about that! I didn't want to use my pick.

fyi you should not be able to forfeit 1sts.... the only reason why we can forfeit 2nds is because in the NBA you can choose not to sign a 2nd....1st round contracts are guaranteed.

1st round picks are GUARANTIED contracts so they should be forced to select them. actually, teams can renounce the rights to a first round pick....thereby forfeiting the pick members.cox.net/lmcoon/salarycap.htm#Q4144. What if a team likes its first round pick and wants to sign him, but either feels he isn't worth the scale salary or doesn't want to commit to two seasons? They're stuck. In essence, this makes late first round picks less valuable, because it forces teams to make a two-year commitment to a marginal player. It was worse under the previous CBA, when the minimum commitment was three years. In 1996, rather than give their first round pick Travis Knight (29th overall) a three-year deal, the Bulls renounced him, making him a free agent. 45. If a first round draft pick is renounced, is he still bound to the salary scale for a first round pick? No. The salary scale only applies to the team that drafts the player or the team to which the player's draft rights are traded. When Chicago renounced first round pick Travis Knight in 1996, he then signed with the Lakers for one year at the league minimum salary. Note that this might actually work to the player's advantage. If he becomes an outstanding NBA player, then he would be eligible for a non-scale contract (and potentially a big payday), much sooner than if he had played under a scale contract. The same is true for second round draft picks, whose first contracts are usually for two seasons (with the second season at the team's option).

duck sim the rest of this. I will, let me study for a few hours, then I'll have the draft finished and upload everything. I might also enter a few FA bids to make my workload for tomorrow easier. Either way FA is gonna be tomorrow..
