FA CHALLENGE: 2021 *Deadline changed to 3pm CST Aug 2nd
ItsGoTime > 07-27-2021, 11:32 AM
So here’s my attempt at a Mavs centric FA challenge.
Rules:
Guess the starting lineup for the first game of the 21-22 season
Guess the 10 other bench players for the first game of the 21-22 season
Points:
10 points for each starter
5 points for each bench player
Tiebreaker:
The first sub in the first game of the season or earliest entry/edit (sub guess trumps the early entry)
Deadline:
3pm CST August 2nd
You get whatever happens on draft night and all the rumors leading up to the start of FA.
If this is the new tamperathon era, we should learn a lot in these next few days! -

Thank you for your participation Clutch! Sorry I wasn’t more specific or maybe you’re holding off for the other 5 players. There should be 5 players for the starters guess and 10 for the bench (even if they’re two-way contracts). I updated the OP to hopefully be more specific. -

No sense in posting a guess much prior to the deadline... -

You can edit your picks up until the deadline, so getting something out there so you can mull it over in your mind while watching the news isn't a bad idea. I'll be checking the edit timestamp to get the order of who posted first. That's why I ask that you do actually edit the post as opposed to making a new post, makes it a bit more confusing (not a huge hindrance) when going through to accumulate points. -

Is this a good question, or am I dumber than everyone else?
Is "midnight on August 1st" the transition from July 31st to August 1st, or is it the transition from August 1st to August 2nd?
I think we typcially mean the night of August 1st when we say midnight on August 1st. Right?
But technically midnight on August 1st is , 12 a.m., morning, the first seconds of August 1st. -

You're probably right. I was meaning to change that to a couple hours before FA opens on Aug 2nd anyway. You just gave me incentive to do so.

It hurts too much to type what I really think will happen, so I'm going to do the "sugarplums" version.

Still have to work out what we got back in trade for Maxi, if more than air, as well as who we'll get with the rMLE. JB was used to dump DP's contract. I should probably shave off one of the '20 rooks (whoever was used to dump Burke's deal). Have to choose a vet min player and identify a draft pick we traded for (although that will be known after this evening) as well as a UDFA.
OK, what I really think is going to happen is that we overpay Dinwiddie, re-sign THJ to a ludicrous contract, and get some stiff to replace WCS with the rMLE. KP, Maxi, DP, Brunson, and Burke all back. Worse team than last year, although the NMBT will trumpet what a coup Dinwiddie is. -

Ugh, so many rumors! Being a very indecisive person I’m having a very hard time with this, however, being on vacation in Arizona (on my way to my brother’s cabin in the Utah mountains (Brian Head) I don’t know if I’ll get a moment to do more on this. So here goes…

That brings tears to my eyes. Too bad there's no chance. And Brogdon would be *pissed* at the Pacers for trading him into the hands of his most hated coach. -

Eh, Brogdon ended up my prize piece in my mind’s KP to whatever 3rd team and Brogdon/McConnell to Dal trade (again this is my mind’s NBA). That could very easily be Turner instead of Brogdon and Graham instead of Holmes.
