What if it's a 1 seed best team in the league vs. a 8 seed worst team in the league? Is that still tanking if the team is so bad and the other is so good???????

Well, 30 points it´s a margin enough to settle a limit. Next week you can recover from a bad day but it´s not admissible expecting a good attendance after being swept.

Perhaps set the maximum salary to some value connected to your other salaries after the "trading deadline". Maybe 25% > min salary week or some such barrier. Would prevent teams from huge changes while giving them a little room, and doesn't face the crippling limitations that a "not eligible for playoffs" would bring?

We need the BBs to move the deadline. At least two weeks earlier. This is getting way out of hand. We need to push it two weeks early. Who's with me?

I am not in favour of moving trade deadline.

At the end of the season it is nice to see the matchups and have some margin to tweek your team to adapt for your matchups. Taking away that option just because some people overuse it seems unfair.

Rather than moving the deadline drop GS to 1 (or 3 or drop it 2 levels, it's debatable). This will limit day-/weektrading and adress the rent a player issue aswell. This could be the player fit in time and is fixable with good minute management. It also gives the other teams time to adjust to the new opponent addition.

I like this idea. I would also Like to see a Transfer Deadline for the CUP..maybe right before the cup gets down to 8 teams. It's the same every season...Rent a beast=CUP winner

Well, what about this; We should have award $$$ for the place you are when the season is over. We could have this or the playoff income winnings, like in suggestion where the PO teams get rewarded. But if we were to do reward $$$ it'd be something like this, In a given division before PO;

Hope it'll help. But tanking really needs to be stopped as I said. Maybe if they see $$$$ and maybe everyone will be competing.

PS (I've seen the reward $$$ rule used in a Football manager game........Thank Football!)

PPS I like football too like basketball

hmmm..............yeah, 15k is nothing, maybe a more diffrent approach for it, my new projections
