RR Dynasty League Thread (S11!)

LOL Dan with 8 guys out injured or otherwise. I might actually have a shot! Especially with Dalano Banton going HAM tonight.

[Mack North]

Still wondering if Kagemusha has a grasp on how adds/drops work against the salary cap? He hasn't announced any of his new signings to deals and he's made 7 moves now.

Oh crap.
i am totally clueless on this.

I will try to explain this here, but this took me a few days to figure out as well. It's not the simplest league to understand. Let us know if you have any questions.

Each player on our team has a cap value. The cap value is the number of years they are signed to. The maximum cap each team gets is 40.


So for example, looking at your cap sheet:
https://forums.raptorsrepublic.com/f...2-23-cap-sheet

Kagemusha
Total Cap Allocation: 27

Damian Lillard 4
Myles Turner 4
Stephen Curry 3
Nikola Vucevic 2
Malcolm Brogdon 2
Chris Duarte 2 DPE
Kelly Oubre Jr 1
Brook Lopez 1
Talen Horton-Tucker 1
Larry Nance Jr 1
Evan Fournier 1
Russell Westbrook 1
Gary Payton II (1)
Tyus Jones (1)
Grant Williams (1)

Waived Counting Against Cap:
Isaiah Roby 1


... Lillard has a cap of 4 years. Turner 2, Curry 3, etc...

Every off season, we are allowed to re-sign 2 players and 1 DPE player. A DPE player is a player on a rookie contract. So for example, next year, all your years roll back by 1. You can only re-sign 2 of the players that have a cap hit of 1 right now. Everyone else becomes a free agent and is available in our auction draft.

Each team's cap is set to 40, but you can go over that. If you do any player you add is not eligible to be re-signed.


When you make a waiver claim and drop a player, the player you drop still has a cap hit, and that will still count towards your team.


So looking at your transactions in Yahoo:

Added Bruno Fernando - Waived Talen Horton-Tucker
Added John Konchar - Waived Chris Duarte
Added Dennis Smith Jr - Waived Bruno Feranando
Added Jalen McDaniels - Waived John Konchar
Added Kevin Love - Waived Tyus Jones
Added Max Strus - Waived Dennis Smith Jr
Added Cameron Payne - Waived Evan Fournier


This is what your cap sheet should look like right now:


Kagemusha
Total Cap Allocation: 34

Damian Lillard 4
Myles Turner 4
Stephen Curry 3
Nikola Vucevic 2
Malcolm Brogdon 2
Kelly Oubre Jr 1
Brook Lopez 1
Larry Nance Jr 1
Russell Westbrook 1
Gary Payton II 1
Grant Williams 1
Cameron Payne 1
Jalen McDaniels 1
Kevin Love 1
Max Strus 1

Waived Counting Against Cap:
Isaiah Roby 1
Talen Horton-Tucker 1
Chris Duarte 2
Bruno Feranando 1
John Konchar 1
Tyus Jones 1
Dennis Smith Jr 1
Evan Fournier 1

All the players other than Duarte will be off the books next year. Duarte's cap hit will still be there next year, but only at 1 year.

If you are under the cap, you can declare more than 1 year for a player. You have 7 days by the time you sign a player to declare years. If you do not then they automatically get 1 year.

So you can give Payne more than 1 year if you like since he's your latest acquisition. You have until next week to decide on that.


You are still below the cap, but you have 10 players that will hit free agency, with only 2 guys that are eligible to be re-signed.


Again let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks a lot, bro.
I really appreciate that explanation.

Gotta step up my game. Lol
Apologies to all.

[Kagemusha]

Good game Kage, almost took that one off me, striking while I have some injuries mounting. I snuck away with a win on turnovers, a cat I punt most weeks. Lucky. I'm gonna need guys back on the court soon or I'm going to start dropping some matchups with a quickness.

Yeah, you have a stacked team.
You would have swept me if your guys were all healthy.

Kage's team almost has that new car smell.

[Kagemusha]

Kage's team almost has that new car smell.

Lol
doesn't matter, it's still a Civic compared to your Camaros.

[Apollo]

Lol
doesn't matter, it's still a Civic compared to your Camaros.

Your car was a brand new Camaro about three years ago.


Two things you wanna maybe check out so you get a sense of what's coming in the off-season:

1. The offline rookie draft results (see post #436 for the almost complete results https://forums.raptorsrepublic.com/f...ead-s10/page11)
2. The live Yahoo free agent auction results (https://basketball.fantasysports.yah...&order_by=desc)

[Apollo]

And of course, you have a league full of people who are eager to answer your questions. You landed in with a good crew here.

[Mack North]

Thanks for the detailed explanation, planetmars you were quick on the draw today.

[Joey]

7 guys out, but I can still pull this one out against the Champ. I think that makes me the champ if I win right?

[Joey]

Live shot of me and the boys celebrating our first win. We'll have some rings made up I expect.

[Joey]

Man, of my 4 rookies, I never imagined Eason would be my favourite so far. Lol Dude is a fantasy stud in the making.

Really like what I've seen from Undrafted Jalen Williams as well. Probably wasn't worth dropping Walker IV for, but ah well. Lol

[DanH]

Enjoy the wins while you can boys.
