Whether you liked it or not, tanking a season to save some money and get draft picks was almost the only way to reset a failing or aging team. The salary floor and boycott changes seem designed to make that very difficult to do. But players have been too expensive for many seasons now to retool on the fly. So what will happen now? Everyone will have middling teams by being boxed in on one side by the economy and the other by anti-tanking measures? I usually don't worry about changes to the game based on the fact that the playing field remains level regardless. While true for this change also, this is the first time I have the thought that a change could significantly lessen my enjoyment of the game. I hope I'm wrong.

- Salary changes: Should have been much more aggressive. Still traditional PG/SG are way too expensive salary/performance wise compared to inside oriented players!

- Salary floor: Not right solution for the problem. Boycott is right way to do it! If someone is able to compete with very low salaries, he shouldn't be punished!

- Boycott: Finally!! Informing about this after season has started is NOT FAIR!!!

- Promotion/Demotion: More possibilities for lower division managers to get into higher division. This should add competition.

- Draft: Hmm....I just hope that change is really visible....not just cosmetic....

- Promotion/Demotion: I aggree it's too harsh 6 demotions.
If we want a change, 5 should be enough.
We can have :
8th : direction demotion
5th-6th-7th : PD (5-7, 6-6 with HCA to the best overall, 7-5)

Only one direct demotion, it is better for the fairness of the final standing and with this evolution more teams involded in PO/PD.

Sounds like you are saying supporter opinions "should" matter more?

Just clarifying if that's true or you are just frustrated?
