Tuesday @ 7 PM Eastern TimePlayer Agents:Atlantic Division - Seattle Supersonics Central Division - Seattle Supersonics Southeast Division - Utah Jazz Northwest Division - Miami Heat Pacific Division - Orlando Magic Southwest Division - Seattle SupersonicsPosting an extension:Please read the rules before you post any extension. Sign & Trades:Please designate in your post that your player will be involved in a sign & trade once he is signed. Also, you will have to offer through the GM that you are trading your player to. **IMPORTANT NOTE:To liven up Free Agency a bit I have come up with 1 simple rule. If your 1st offer is such a lowball from what we, the player agents, are expecting, we will not even negotiate with you and your player will hit free agency. If your 1st offer is what it should be, we will negotiate and try to get the best offer for our clients. ...Remember none of this is personal. If you dont get a player to resign with you, please dont get too upset. Its only business.

Just wondering.... How much of a lowball does it have to be? In the other contract extension thread it says to not offer the best offer first, as you dont know if you will be able to sign them for less. Just a question, didnt want the offers to start off absurd just to make sure you get to resign your guy.

Guys that are retiring are still going to be here ? Like Murray and CLiffy (dont think that thay are still playing) so if they are staying here a 500,000 contract shouldnt be lowball right? I guess that lowwball thing is like if u offer 1,500,000 to someone like Devin Harris...

But the minimum for players that arent even "Playing" isnt a lowball...you dont need to offer more than the minimum to every player...I just want to know if they are still going to be available or if they are going to leave the league

Look, if its 7PM in EST then its I believe that it will be 22:00 (the other day) in Australia (Melbourne)..but I dont know where u live...It's like 15 hours difference
and Houston, I believe that a lowball is like if u offer Harris something like 1,500,000-2,000,000 a year (that is a lowvball, u should start offering at least 4,500,000 for him) so IMo thats what he meant, cuz u are not offering the best that u can but u arent offering a lowball too
