I think we should allow all 1st round picks to be renamed, even the out of lottery ones for no points, and we should be able to make up any name and not have it have to be a real player. I think it would drive more engagement and definitely make some fun instances when Basketball McBasketballface becomes league MVP.

It's extra work on the commish to re do names. So the tax is justified on non lottery names. Nah on the renames for everyone, especially with the likelihood of less lottery teams(2 less). Takes even more off my plate which I'm all for. The quicker I get burnt out, the quicker the league ends. Lakers/bulls are NOT interested in picking commissioner back up.

Sounds like we need RFA reform and TC should be forced recommended

There's really nothing else to suggest. I hate I can't rename my players. I think we should be able to do TC first, next evaluate your players, and then do the mandatory roster cut of 15.

I vote we open up all picks being eligible for the lottery. It would be fair that pick 26 would be able to have a chance at the top #1 pick! Would add a fun wrinkle AND VALUE!!!! to picks throughout the season where as now backend picks are worthless. This could be a fun thing to do! Imagine the Lakers or the Suns in the championship and next season winning #1 over all!

I think the only barrier to doing this is in the game is that we'd need to just set playoff teams to 0. What a fun wrinkle indeed

I'm curious how that would work with 0 playoff teams... does that make the season just a big in season tournament?

The season would end, and then we'd just be in the offseason again

Also, we had less rules around renames and more people thought it was stupid to be able to name someone Pig Pig-Pig or Ash Ketchum or George Washington so those rename rules were the result of voting in action.
