oops, it's 8% I feel like aelliott, here goes- 19. How is "average salary" defined? The league computes the average salary by taking the total salaries paid during the previous season, dividing by 362.5 (29 teams, times 12.5 players per team) and then adding eight percent. This average salary figure is used when determining the salaries payable using the Early-Bird, injury and average salary exceptions; and when determining an unsigned free agent's cap hit. There we are. This also answers several other questions such as how much of an exception we'd get should Hakeem be ruled an injury exception due to breathing problems. Same for Jayson Williams. Carry on. hp-think you'll be able to get there before the game 3 ends? ------------------ Rockets fans wanted at hoopsboards.com Draft Chat, NBA Chat, Team Chat, and more!
Haypartner, My only misinformation was thinking Seattle was under the cap. Everything else I have said is true. Other people here falsely reported FAs, etc. yet you don't threaten to taunt those individuals off these boards. The reason I feel this thread should be deleted is because of your childish insults and actions. DO US ALL A FAVOR AND GROW UP! ------------------ CC.NET BBS Quote of the week (posted by Jeff): ""Welcome to Houston. Get out!" (To the mayor of Louisville on his trip to Houston)
Also, I have never called anyone here stupid. I have said that some ideas that have been said here were ignorant (HP: open up a dictionary and look up stupid and ignorant so you will know the difference in the future). ------------------ CC.NET BBS Quote of the week (posted by Jeff): ""Welcome to Houston.

I told you this would be fun to watch. Mango ------------------ Live long and prosper. Donate blood! Now...back to updating The Serious Police Files.
The answer to my question is NO. You cannot sign-and-trade another team's free agent. Both of you, Sky and HP, have said some wrong things and misread my question. I didn't ask if you could sign-n-trade-n-trade, I aksed if you could sign-and-trade someone else's free agent. I will not delete this thread because people have gotten a lot of false information from this thread and if I delete, what I say here will never be read. YOU CANNOT SIGN-AND-TRADE ANOTHER TEAM'S FREE AGENT. PLEASE LET THIS BE THE LAST POST OF THE THREAD. ------------------
DaFranchise-that's what a sign-n-trade-n-trade is (signing and trading another team's FA. ------------------ Rockets fans wanted at hoopsboards.com Draft Chat, NBA Chat, Team Chat, and more!
NIKE, sign-n-trade-n-trade isn't even a word or expression. At least I have never seen it used. That would mean, in this case, that Seattle signs and trades Lewis to Chicago, who trades him to us. Come up with a better word for it, try this expression out: Sign-and-trading another team's free agent. Wow. ------------------
damn DSL...knocked me off for 2 hours... let me reiterate... DaFranchise should rise up and delete this thread. I will only get sillier and sillier, and more childish. Sky Pilot,,,the first thread I read from you had several posts calling people stupid. You came up on my sky radar on your first thread. Let the childish behavior continue...I will crush this thread, before I will let more misinformation abound. I am the child the admins can't be.
MORE MORE! 70 posts of zzzz ignorance! Im done with my cookies. ------------------ I have a special purpose.
Why should I delete this thread? Does it's existence really bother you that much heypartner? Besides, many people have read some pretty stupid stuff in this thread and if I delete it, they won't be able to read the solution. The answer to the original question is no, let that be the end please. ------------------
Please Mr. Serious Policeman, don't stop this.... it's making for a fun summer on the BBS. (Admins, PLEASE don't close this thread. ) GreaseBoy, FruitBoy, I'll grab the popcorn... ------------------ Just shut up and post
D00d, pass me a cookie... Romper Room is in full swing. I'm waiting for Barney to come bouncing in screaming about BYC players. I love you... you love me... let's watch SkyPee fight HeyPee... ------------------ Just shut up and post
wrong again Sky Pilot. I know count 3-4 pieces of misinformation from you. I'm not going to point it out the Seattle stuff until you start an NBA Dish Thread. There we can be civil. But in this thread, I will only be childish with you. You did call people Ignorant and Stupid in your past threads. I don't need a dictionary to know you only use them synonomously here. You say Ignorant as some high brow, classy way to call someone Stupid, whereas, I just call you stupid to your face; you idiot. I am basing my right to be childish with you on the following exchange you had in the first thread I saw you in. search for "different ways to get swift" same thread: Sky Pilot, something about me. I do childish first strikes, because they serve their purpose, and I don't care about my cc.net reputation anyhow. Who strikes first doesn't matter when both parties have said in the past they will do strikes on stupidity. [This message has been edited by heypartner (edited June 11, 2000).]
I'm guessing you weren't given too many options if this was the "best manner"... Carry on. ------------------ Just shut up and post
I would just tell Sky to admit he's wrong and move on, however that would not be any fun to watch. Yo Doc, scoot over man, I want front moniter seats on this. ------------------ Check out the new and improved Draftsource.net
I love this thread . So, who's up for joining the Anti sign-n-trade-n-trade committee? ------------------ Rockets fans wanted at hoopsboards.com Draft Chat, NBA Chat, Team Chat, and more!
Nike Quit interrupting! Start your own lame thread if you want to have fun. I've claimed this one! Just grab a seat and some popcorn. HeyPee is defending the world from that eeeevil SkyPee. Check out his cape... and those tights man... what a riot. ------------------ Just shut up and post
ouch...pesky little chat bees. I hate it when they get inside my chaps and chat my hide. Wasn't it Jim Croce who said:
